" Coach Park Hang Seo said a few years ago that Vietnamese football should not fear Thailand. I also think there is nothing to fear about Thailand anymore, especially after today's victory, " coach Kim Sang-sik said at the post-match press conference.
The Vietnamese team had an impressive match against Thailand at Viet Tri Stadium. In the first half, the home team pressured their opponents but missed many opportunities and could not score. In the second half, Quang Hai passed the ball well to Van Thanh, the defender born in 1996 headed the ball to create conditions for Xuan Son to open the score of the match. The striker born in 1997 himself dribbled the ball and scored the second goal. Unfortunately, the Vietnamese team let the opponent score 1 goal.

Mr. Kim continued: " The Vietnamese team has shown its strength against Thailand, there is no mountain that cannot be overcome. It has been 27 years since we have won against Thailand. I am happy about this. I feel like I have brought joy to the fans at the beginning of the new year.
I analyzed my team and the opponent before coming up with different tactics. My goal was to win. Thailand is strong and has physical strength. I told Xuan Son to be more aggressive. The Vietnamese team was very strong today, played very well and won."
According to the Korean coach, he has prepared carefully for the first leg of the 2024 AFF Cup final. Coach Kim Sang-sik was satisfied with what happened even though the Vietnamese team conceded 1 goal at the end of the match. Vietnamese players need to improve their mentality. In particular, the defenders need to play more focused to avoid unfortunate goals.
Recalling the match, Mr. Kim praised a student: " Ngoc Tan ran a lot, always trying his best in every match. He fought for the team, he blocked many attacks from Thailand. I think this is a very special player. He has positive energy and brings motivation to the coaching staff. I thank him for today's match ."
