Although they lost heavily, this is not surprising because in all aspects, coach Troussier's team was inferior to their opponent.

However, the surprising thing is that in the above match, coach Klinsmann fielded almost their strongest lineup.

According to calculations, the Korean players appearing in the match against Vietnam have a transfer value of up to 165 million euros (about 4,148 billion VND).

Transfermarkt's highest-valued player for the Korean team is center-back Kim Min-jae at 60 million euros (1,508 billion VND).

Captain Son Heung-min ranks second in transfer value in the Korean team with 50 million euros (1,257 billion VND).

The two players ranked behind are Lee Kang-in with 22 million euros (553 billion VND) and Hwang Hee Chang with a value of 18 million euros (452 billion VND).

All of the above players of the Korean team are playing for big clubs in Europe such as PSG, Bayern Munich or Tottenham.

Meanwhile, the total transfer value of the Vietnamese team in the match against Korea is only around 2.5 to 3 million euros (maximum 75 billion VND).

The two players with the highest values on Transfermarkt are Hoang Duc (400,000 euros - 10 billion VND) and Dang Van Lam (300,000 euros - 7.5 billion VND).

In fact, the total value of the Vietnamese team is only slightly higher than the two lowest-valued players on the Korean side: right-back Seol Young Woo (1.2 million euros) and goalkeeper Jo Hyeon Woo (1.2 million euros).

Related information, the loss to South Korea caused the Vietnamese team to lose 2.41 points. However, coach Troussier and his team rose 1 place to 94th in the world.
