Human Challenge
Not long after winning the 2024 ASEAN Cup, coach Kim Sang Sik and the Vietnamese team conquered a new goal - winning a ticket to the 2027 Asian Cup Finals, with the first match taking place next March.
With the team that has just become the regional champion, the Korean captain can still rest assured in the race for a ticket to Saudi Arabia. However, in the long term or even until the final round of the tournament takes place, we have to calculate differently.

Normally, Quang Hai, Hoang Duc, Tien Linh... could completely participate in the Asian Cup finals once more, but for Vietnamese football this is quite fragile.
Age, desire or simply injury… can cause the current pillars of the Vietnamese team to be absent from the Asian Cup. Therefore, Mr. Kim Sang Sik is forced to strengthen the team with new people to be proactive in all possible situations.
Simply put, besides using the veteran group, coach Kim Sang Sik also needs to test the new players for the Vietnam team right in the upcoming 2027 Asian Cup qualifiers, in easy matches against Nepal for example.
Question mark in gameplay
Vietnam won the 2024 ASEAN Cup championship quite convincingly when they were undefeated throughout the entire tournament. However, the clear playing style still did not satisfy experts and fans.

A specific example, the Vietnamese team still has many flaws in their playing style. They are not the team with the most accurate passing, shots, or ball control... so it is reasonable to demand better.
The Vietnamese team still has many concerns in the ASEAN Cup 2024, which can be understood when the Korean strategist has just arrived, but the Asian Cup 2027 qualifiers must be different. Therefore, this is another challenge for Mr. Kim Sang Sik.
The playing style needs to change and this depends a lot on the people, but looking at what the V-League has at the moment puts coach Kim Sang Sik in a really difficult situation in the near future.
