V-League is truly a remedy to “heal” the national team. In addition to helping players improve their performance before the AFF Cup 2024, the national championship can also help some players return from injury and find themselves again.
Notably, this number includes central defender Bui Hoang Viet Anh and striker Nguyen Van Toan. Bui Hoang Viet Anh is currently the number 1 central defender in domestic football, in both defensive ability and offensive support ability.
Bui Hoang Viet Anh (right) is one of the best central defenders in Vietnamese football today.
During the Vietnam national team training session in September for friendly matches with Russia and Thailand, Viet Anh was injured and had to withdraw at the last minute. In the coming time, this central defender can return and the team's defense under coach Kim Sang-sik will have more options to counter high balls (Viet Anh is 1.85 m tall), have another person with good ability to compete with the opponent's tall strikers and have another spearhead in set pieces when Viet Anh joins the attack.
Similar to Viet Anh is the case of striker Nguyen Van Toan. The star player currently playing for Nam Dinh team also suffered an injury and withdrew from the national team at the last minute, during the training session in September. Van Toan has returned to play for the team from Thanh Nam, in the match where Nam Dinh played away against Ha Tinh club in round 1 of V-League. This player did not make a strong impression in the above match, but it is likely that Van Toan will soon regain his form and play better in the future.
Van Toan (white shirt) is in good form but unfortunately missed the Vietnam national team due to injury.
Van Toan's high speed and ability to create breakthroughs are factors that the Vietnamese team really needs, especially in the situation where we play counter-attacks against some highly rated opponents. These counter-attacks will help reduce pressure on the home team's defense, while opening up new opportunities for the team.
Therefore, when Van Toan returns to the national team training session in October, coach Kim Sang-sik can use another attacking plan for the Vietnamese team against India (October 9) and Lebanon (October 15).
Among the young faces who will be on duty with the U.22 Vietnam team in the friendly tournament in China, there is a possibility that some will be called up to the national team in the near future. Football expert Doan Minh Xuong predicted: "Maybe Dinh Bac, Thai Son, Khuat Van Khang will be added."
Among them, Dinh Bac has just made his debut for the new team Cong An Ha Noi (CAHN). He entered the field from the 60th minute, replacing Phan Van Duc. Like Van Toan, Dinh Bac has not made a big impression in the opening round of the V-League, but hopefully in a few more rounds of the national championship, his performance will improve.
Coach Kim Sang-sik (in black) needs many quality options to prepare for the matches in October and the AFF Cup at the end of the year.
With more people and more strength, the Vietnamese team needs contributions from many different factors, with diverse playing styles. The upcoming rounds of the V-League are expected to gradually help coach Kim Sang-sik solve difficult problems related to the team.
