According to the tournament regulations, yellow cards from the group stage will be cleared upon entering the semi-finals. This allows the U22 Vietnam coaching staff to be more proactive in selecting the lineup and implementing tactics. The only person unable to be present in the technical area is Assistant Coach Lee Jung Soo-do, who has accumulated two yellow cards in the matches against U22 Laos and U22 Malaysia.
Furthermore, ahead of this crucial match, coach Kim Sang-sik has a full and strong squad at his disposal, with all players in good shape, fully recovered, and maintaining high levels of concentration, ready to take to the field.
During the final training session in preparation for the match against the Philippines U22 team, the South Korean coach spent a significant amount of time reviewing coordination strategies, game organization, and the ability to transition between attacking and defensive phases.
Mr. Kim emphasized the intense nature of the confrontation and remarked that the team with better physical and mental preparation would win. With a long period of professional development, the "Golden Star Warriors" are confident in aiming for the SEA Games 33 gold medal.
"The U22 Philippines team has shown rapid improvement in terms of game organization and tactical approach. Therefore, we also need to prepare thoroughly and overcome difficulties to win."
"We promise to fight with all the honor of the Vietnamese team and of the Vietnamese fans," Mr. Kim said.
In the knockout round of the men's football tournament at the 33rd SEA Games, if two teams are tied after 90 minutes of regular time, they will proceed to two extra time periods. If the score remains tied, a penalty shootout will decide which team advances to the final.
