In the opening match of the men's chess team, Le Quang Liem, Le Tuan Minh, Tran Tuan Minh, and Tran Minh Thang helped the Vietnamese chess team win convincingly 3.5-0.5 against the Korean team with 3 wins by Quang Liem, Tran Tuan Minh, Tran Minh Thang and a draw by Le Tuan Minh.

The highlight of the second game taking place today is the confrontation between the Vietnamese team and the host China, the two leading candidates in the competition for the gold medal. The Vietnamese team has the highest elo chess player at the 19th ASIAD, Le Quang Liem (elo 2,733), along with Nguyen Ngoc Truong Son (elo 2,575), Le Tuan Minh (elo 2,497), Tran Tuan Minh (elo 2,483), Tran Minh Thang (elo 2,334). Meanwhile, the Chinese team has an even lineup, with a higher average elo, including Wei Yi (elo 2,726), Bu Xiangzhi (elo 2,690), Ma Qun (elo 2,651), Xu Xiangyu (elo 2,626).
Nguyen Ngoc Truong Son is likely to return to the Vietnamese chess team when facing China.
Le Tuan Minh (left) has made remarkable progress recently, promising to help the Vietnamese chess team achieve good results in the team event.
Most likely, in the important match with China, the coaching staff of the Vietnamese chess team will use the strongest lineup including Le Quang Liem, Nguyen Ngoc Truong Son, Le Tuan Minh, Tran Tuan Minh. The intellectual battle between the two teams promises to be full of brains because although the average Elo is lower, the Vietnamese players are considered not much inferior to their opponents. The bravery of Quang Liem, Truong Son and the good form of Le Tuan Minh are the basis for Vietnamese chess fans to expect a favorable result for the Vietnamese chess team in the "big battle" with the Chinese team.

In the mixed chess team event, after losing to the host China in the second round, Lai Ly Huynh and his teammates still maintained their spirit, convincingly winning against the Malaysian team in the match that ended at nearly 11pm last night (September 29). Today, Lai Ly Huynh, Nguyen Thanh Bao, Nguyen Minh Nhat Quang, Nguyen Hoang Yen, and Le Thi Kim Loan entered an important match with the Hong Kong team. Only by defeating this formidable opponent will the Vietnamese chess team have a chance to meet the host China again in the finals, competing for the gold medal.
