'I'm tired too.'

"Congratulations to the Vietnamese team and coach Kim Sang-sik on this victory. However, Indonesia has many young players. Today, during the match, the Vietnamese team created a gap in experience between them and the young Indonesian players. The entire Indonesian team did their best mentally and physically, but there is still a gap. We have learned something from this match," coach Shin Tae-yong shared after Indonesia's 0-1 defeat to the Vietnamese team in the match at Viet Tri Stadium on the evening of December 15th.

With their youthful squad, the Indonesian team defended disciplinedly and made things difficult for the home team, Vietnam, throughout the match. However, a moment of brilliance from Quang Hai with a quick shot in the 77th minute secured a crucial three points for the Vietnamese team.

Coach Shin Tae-yong shared after the match: "In reality, the Indonesian national team hasn't had enough time to prepare its young talents. They need more time. We also need to put in more effort to train and guide them. At this time, it's difficult to apply any specific tactics to young players. Indonesia needs time."

Quang Hai shines, Vietnam national team wins against Indonesia for the first time in 2024.

The Vietnamese team ended their three-match losing streak against Indonesia. This victory also brings Coach Kim's team closer to the semi-finals, as they now have 6 points after 2 matches. For Indonesia, 4 points after 3 matches is not yet a safe enough score to advance.

"I will still prepare for the semi-finals. I believe the Indonesian team can advance and will advance," coach Shin Tae-yong assessed.

Shin reiterated Indonesia's disadvantage: "I think all the teams in the tournament are experiencing similar circumstances, especially Indonesia, as we don't have direct flights to other countries. On average, each leg of the journey takes us 15 hours. For example, traveling to play the match against Myanmar took us 16 hours. I myself was a little tired, so I can't imagine how exhausted the players must be. The players have expressed concerns about their health being affected. I understand that Indonesia is facing difficulties."
