"U.17 Vietnam is more confident after the opening match"

After the opening match, coach Cristiano Roland also gave his assessment of the performance of U.17 Vietnam: "I am satisfied with the result as well as the performance of the team. We achieved the target of 3 points in the opening match, and importantly, the state of U.17 Vietnam entering the game was good, maintained for 90 minutes. I think that is very important for young players. They did well, but need to continue to look forward to the next match. In the opening match, the first thing I think the young players will have bad situations, mistakes, but that is normal. Of course, we have prepared for such situations, and the team must learn lessons. U.17 Vietnam deserved 3 points. We feel much more confident after this match."

In addition to professional assessment, the captain of U.17 Vietnam also emphasized that solidarity is an important foundation: "For me, solidarity, teamwork and national spirit are always put first. When the players sing the national anthem, they understand best how they have to fight for the fans. I always encourage the players when entering the field to fight with the greatest motivation, even when celebrating a goal together, they must show culture, unity and create strength for the team."
