U23 Vietnam's opponent makes tough statement before 2024 U23 Asia qualifiers

In early September 2023, Vietnam will host a group match in the 2024 AFC U23 qualifiers.

U23 Singapore lost 1-3 to U23 Vietnam at SEA Games 32.

In this group, besides host U23 Vietnam, there is also the presence of Singapore, Yemen and Guam.

To aim for a ticket to the 2024 AFC U23 Championship taking place early next year, U23 Singapore has prepared quite thoroughly when going to Thailand for training since August 25.

The Lion Island team even did not participate in the 2023 Southeast Asian U23 Championship or the 19th ASIAD to focus on the 2024 Asian U23 qualifiers.

Before the tournament, coach Nazri Nasir expressed confidence in his team's preparation and was determined to surprise the teams in the same group.

“The upcoming tournament is very important to us. U23 Singapore is determined to achieve positive results to overcome the disappointment after a series of poor results at the 32nd SEA Games.

Upcoming opponents such as U23 Vietnam, Yemen and Guam will not be easy to face, but we will prove to everyone that U23 Singapore is a capable team, ready to overcome all challenges," coach Nazri Nasir declared.

This time, U23 Singapore brought to the 2023 U23 Asian qualifiers 12 players who just participated in the 32nd SEA Games.

However, compared to U23 Vietnam, the young team of the lion island is still far behind in many aspects.

At the tournament in Cambodia, U23 Singapore lost 1-3 to U23 Vietnam in the group stage.

According to the schedule, U23 Singapore will face U23 Vietnam on September 12, this is also the last match of coach Troussier and his team in the qualifying round.
