Vietnam team starting lineup
Welcoming a mid-level opponent, Coach Troussier wants to take advantage of the opportunity to test the tactics and new players of the Vietnam team. On the current FIFA rankings, the Hong Kong team (China) is only ranked 147, 52 places lower than the Vietnam team.
The French strategist placed Nguyen Quang Hai in the starting lineup, even though this midfielder has rarely played since the 2022 AFF Cup. In addition, Nguyen Cong Phuong and Nguyen Van Toan were not on the list to compete with the Hong Kong (China) team because they have not had much time to practice with the team.
In addition, defenders Vu Van Thanh and Nham Manh Dung were not allowed to play in the first match of the Vietnam team under new coach Troussier due to injury. Instead, young striker Nguyen Van Tung was put on the field from the beginning to replace Nguyen Tien Linh.
