U23 Vietnam’s starting lineup
Vi Hao started the match, replacing Nguyen Hoang. Meanwhile, Ho Van Cuong reappeared in the right hallway. The other positions have not changed much compared to the two matches against Malaysia and Kuwait.
The final quarter-final match of the U23 Asian Championship will be a confrontation between Vietnam and Iraq. This match is an opportunity for either team to open the door to the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Vietnam is of course determined to cross the historic threshold, but in front of them is a very strong opponent, with a good technical foundation and outstanding physical strength.
In their squad is Ali Jassim. As a winger, he is making great contributions. In the 4-2 win over U23 Tajikistan, Ali Jassim scored 2 goals along with 2 decisive assists.
In the final match of the group stage, Ali Jasim once again scored from the penalty spot, bringing a 2-1 victory to Iraq U23.
On the national team, this 21-year-old player also caused problems for Viet Anh, Duy Manh, and Tuan Tai when Iraq defeated Vietnam in November 2023.
Jassim is Iraq’s trump card
Today, Ho Van Cuong will return from suspension and he will definitely have to take care of this spearhead thoroughly.
If Iraq plays better and better with the inspiration of Ali Jasim, Vietnam still exposes problems in every position. The defense still created a lot of space for the opponent to exploit, while the offense showed a lack of rhythm and coordination between positions.
In the final stages, the players appeared hasty, insensitive and lacked the necessary sharpness. Before Uzbekistan, Vietnam did not have a chance, but the players’ finishing situations were not neat and hardly made things difficult for the opponent’s goalkeeper.
In today’s match, coach Hoang Anh Tuan announced that “Vietnam will show a different face compared to the group stage matches”. This is also what fans expect from the home team.
The next 90 minutes will give all the answers, how will Vietnam change and will those changes be effective against an Iraq that is superior in all aspects?
