Quang Hai tried his best to meet the requirements.

" Quang Hai returned early and had a week of training. During that time, he tried his best to meet my requirements. Cong Phuong and Van Toan returned later due to club regulations. All three players tried their best and were eager to show their abilities to me ," coach Philippe Troussier said about the three players who joined the training late.

In the list of Vietnam national team this time, Nguyen Quang Hai, Nguyen Cong Phuong and Nguyen Van Toan do not play domestically. Quang Hai has just ended his contract with Pau FC (France), while Cong Phuong and Van Toan are playing for Japanese and Korean clubs.

Coach Troussier: Quang Hai tries his best to meet the requirements - 1 — Coach Troussier at the press conference before the friendly match between Vietnam and Hong Kong (China)

The Vietnamese team has finished a training session to prepare for the match against Hong Kong (China). Coach Troussier said he has tried to impart knowledge and philosophy to the players so that they can perform at their best.

" With previous experience and combat ability, I hope the players will absorb well the knowledge I impart to be ready to face tomorrow's match ," said Mr. Troussier.

"After a week of training, all the players have tried their best to be able to operate the style of play that I wanted. I am satisfied with their attitude. Although there was not much time, I tried to convey knowledge so that the players could enter the field with a ready mindset for my first match with the Vietnam team."

The French coach not only aims to win his debut match with the Vietnam national team. For the friendly match, the performance of the players and the performance of the experimental options are also very important.

Coach Troussier added: " I always want to show the best intentions that we want to implement. But to do that, the players have to transform real situations, especially situations in the final area of the field such as passing, shooting, dribbling, crossing. From there we will win.

Of course, winning is not just about talking. All players on the field must make an effort, show their spirit, and support their teammates appropriately. No opponent will let the Vietnamese team dominate throughout the match. A victory tomorrow will give the whole team more confidence to build their playing style and aim for the World Cup qualifiers in November .

Coach Jorn Andersen highly appreciates the level of the Vietnamese team. This is shown through the position on the FIFA rankings (95 for Vietnam and 147 for Hong Kong). However, Coach Troussier has a different opinion.

" We know that in football, the story of assessing strength is not based on papers or rankings. We respect Hong Kong because we also know that they have qualified for the Asian Cup next year. They are also building their force for the first qualifying round of the World Cup next October. That is why the opponent will show the greatest desire for tomorrow's match.

We respect them and will play with 200% of our ability. We have done some research through the video of Hong Kong's matches with Malaysia and Singapore last March. That is the material for us to prepare best for the match," Coach Troussier shared.
