" I believe that the competition between me and Tien Linh is positive. In the current system, I understand that I will support Tien Linh. He wants to play center forward. As for me, any role in the Vietnam team is an honor. I want to contribute my efforts, support my teammates, and conquer the goals with the Vietnam team.
