"This is just the beginning. The Vietnamese team will have heavy weapons to face tough opponents in the next round," commentator Quang Huy said about Nguyen Xuan Son. The naturalized Brazilian striker made his debut for the Vietnamese team with 2 goals and 2 assists for his teammates in the 5-0 win over Myanmar on the evening of December 22.
With a 10-point performance, Nguyen Xuan Son created a fever not only in the Vietnamese football fan community. International media and social networking sites also highly appreciated the rookie born in 1997 - the player who helped the Vietnamese team's attack significantly increase its strength.

"The Vietnamese team's attack line has no one who is truly an "icebreaker", a formidable goal-scoring "machine" like Xuan Son," commented commentator Quang Huy.
"Xuan Son's presence in the attack line is a support. The players below also play more easily. The main players like Vi Hao do not have much experience but have benefited a lot from Son. Tien Linh's entry into the field also went smoothly, there was no problem in coordinating with each other.
Xuan Son has not stopped here. Xuan Son's greatness is still ahead. This is just the beginning. We can expect to shine when meeting opponents at a higher level."
The victory over Myanmar relieved a lot of pressure on the Vietnamese team and coach Kim Sang-sik after the first three unsatisfactory matches. There were many doubts aimed at the Korean coach when he used four different lineups in the four group stage matches.
According to commentator Quang Huy, coach Kim Sang-sik's choice is risky. However, the positive side is that the Vietnamese team still has many "secrets" for its opponents. Commentator Quang Huy believes that the Vietnamese team has not used the optimal lineup and has not shown its full potential.
"There are suspicions that the Vietnamese team drew with the Philippines because coach Kim Sang-sik was too bold, making eight substitutions. Going into this match, many people were probably surprised by the starting lineup. It seems that Mr. Kim was complacent because this was a "super-attacking" lineup, with both Quang Hai and Hoang Duc playing together in the middle of the field.
However, perhaps Mr. Kim had studied carefully to know that this was an opponent with poor counter-attacking ability. In the whole first half, they only had one long-range shot. Hoang Duc and Quang Hai in the middle of the field were not strong at intercepting. However, they knew how to control the rhythm of the match. Quang Hai had a very good match.
It's not because the Vietnamese team won that we say that, but Mr. Kim Sang-sik did have a good calculation when creating the rotation. The lineup for this match is not necessarily optimal. We can all see that there are still positions where reserve players play better. Mr. Kim rotated continuously like that, until the semi-finals, the Vietnamese team was still a mystery to the opponent," commented commentator Quang Huy.
