Indonesian newspaper worried when coach Shin Tae-yong has never won against Vietnam team at AFF Cup

Coach Shin Tae-yong's Indonesian team is always inferior to Vietnam at the AFF Cup.

Bola: Indonesia lacks confidence against Vietnam team

The Indonesian team started the AFF Cup 2024 with a narrow 1-0 victory over Myanmar, before falling into disaster when they were held to a 3-3 draw by Laos in the second match of Group B. This raised many pessimistic assessments when coach Shin Tae-yong and his team will face the Vietnamese team.

Bola newspaper even asserted that "Indonesia is lacking confidence" in the away match at Viet Tri Stadium at 8:00 p.m. on December 15, against a Vietnam team whose morale is high after a 4-1 victory over Laos and a few more days of rest.

Shin Tae-yong's poor performance against Vietnam at AFF Cup

In fact, the two teams have met three times in the Southeast Asian championship since coach Shin Tae-yong was invited by PSSI, starting with a 0-0 draw in the group stage of the 2020 AFF Cup.

At the AFF Cup 2022, the archipelago team drew 0-0 at home before being convincingly defeated by the Vietnamese team with a score of 2-0 thanks to a double from Tien Linh - who later won the tournament's top scorer title.

At the AFF Cup 2024, Tien Linh continued his impressive form with a cross-angle shot to raise the score to 2-0 for the Vietnamese team against Laos.

Starting early from the first match, Tien Linh is very excited to meet a familiar opponent who has brought him many beautiful memories at the SEA Games, World Cup qualifiers or was the springboard for him to become the first Vietnamese striker to become the AFF Cup's top scorer.

In addition, the goals scored by Van Toan, Van Vi and Hai Long also helped the Vietnamese team gain more confidence to welcome their opponents Indonesia, who are down in spirit and have lost conductor Marselino Ferdinan after a red card in the 3-3 draw with Laos on December 12.
