Have good wings

Under coach Kim Sang Sik, the Vietnamese team has made significant progress in upgrading the two wings in the 3-4-3 formation.

Although the list has not been announced, it is very likely that Jason Quang Vinh will participate in this training session after completing the naturalization procedure. Thanks to that, Mr. Kim Sang Sik has another quality option for the left-back position along with Van Vi.

With the addition of Jason Quang Vinh, the Vietnamese team has perfected its ability to attack the flanks.

Meanwhile, on the right wing, the fact that Van Thanh is having to play many fronts at CAHN Club does not make Mr. Kim Sang Sik worried, because he previously gave the opportunity to Truong Tien Anh.

This season, the winger of The Cong Viettel has made great strides in his expertise, creating great peace of mind for the Korean strategist.

What is missing to be perfect?

However, although the two wings worked effectively, the Vietnamese team seemed to lack a classy center forward to make the most of crosses from the two wings.

At the ASEAN Cup, Xuan Son, with his good aerial ability, is an ideal destination for high balls, helping the Vietnamese team have more diverse attacking options.

However, unfortunately, coach Kim Sang Sik currently lacks a top-class striker.

At this time, or more precisely from the first two matches without Xuan Son, the confrontation with Laos (2027 Asian Cup qualifiers) or the friendly match with Cambodia in March, the Vietnamese team, although maintaining the ability to attack the flanks, lacked a plan to put pressure in the 16m50 box.

Tien Linh's current form is a bit lacking, and at the same time the Vietnamese team does not have many options for the attack, forcing coach Kim Sang Sik to worry when facing Malaysia - a team that has just added many naturalized players with good physique in the 2027 Asian Cup qualifiers.

In short, despite significant improvements on both wings, the Vietnamese team and coach Kim Sang Sik still need to add a quality striker to perfect their playing style and achieve maximum efficiency in the landmark match against Malaysia.
