Coach Troussier surprised many people with 11 names in the starting lineup of the Vietnamese team against the Palestinian team. Nguyen Dinh Trieu made his first start for the national team, replacing Dang Van Lam. The three central defenders in front of the goal were Do Duy Manh, Bui Hoang Viet Anh and Nguyen Thanh Binh.
The right-back position is played by rookie Pham Trung Hieu - a player who has improved in the Hai Phong club shirt. On the opposite wing will be Trieu Viet Hung. He is known as a central midfielder but often plays left-back in the V-League.
Quang Hai continues to be placed in the starting lineup by coach Philippe Troussier.
Hoang Duc - Hung Dung - Tuan Anh are the central midfielders, responsible for controlling the midfield of the Vietnamese team. Quang Hai is placed in the attacking midfielder position, supporting the main striker Pham Tuan Hai.
Vietnam will face Palestine in the third friendly under coach Philippe Troussier. This is still a test and preparation for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers later this year by the French coach.
The Palestine team is an equal opponent to the Vietnam team in this testing phase. On the FIFA rankings, they are one place behind the home team. The difference in level between the two teams is not big.
A few days ago, the Palestine team lost 1-2 to Oman. They brought their strongest squad to Vietnam with the same goal as the host team, which is to test and prepare for the World Cup qualifiers.
