Coach Kim unexpectedly chose Quang Hai, Xuan Son missed the appointment to be the 'boss' of the Vietnamese national team

The Vietnam team's executive board has made adjustments to suit the actual situation.

The vice-captain armband of the Vietnam national team was given to Quang Hai.

In the recent meeting of the Vietnamese team, coach Kim Sang-sik announced the new staff, with a few notable adjustments. Accordingly, Quang Hai was given the vice-captain armband, replacing Cao Pendant Quang Vinh.

Along with the Hanoi midfielder, Hoang Duc continues to take on the role of vice captain, while Duy Manh remains the team captain.

This decision of the Korean coach has received much attention from experts and fans. The trust Quang Hai has received shows that he is gradually regaining his form and position in the national team, especially after recent impressive performances at the club level.

On the other hand, midfielder Xuan Son – who was expected to be part of the new executive committee – was not selected as captain or vice-captain.

However, this player is still an important factor in coach Kim Sang-sik's professional plan for the upcoming campaign. The Vietnamese team is full of determination and positive competition within the team, looking forward to the rematch against Laos in the second leg of the 2027 Asian Cup qualifiers.
