" Regarding singing the national anthem, I am confident that I can do it in tomorrow's match. I have practiced singing the national anthem every day, " Nguyen Xuan Son answered at a press conference before the match between Vietnam and Myanmar. According to coach Kim Sang-sik, the match at Viet Tri Stadium (Phu Tho) tomorrow, December 21, will be the first time Nguyen Xuan Son plays for the Vietnamese team.
After 14 years, Nguyen Xuan Son became the next naturalized player to play for the Vietnam national team. He still sat in the stands waiting for his chance during the last 3 matches with much desire. Nguyen Xuan Son still sang the National Anthem in the 3 matches he had to sit in the stands to watch his teammates take the field at the AFF Cup 2024.
Striker Nguyen Xuan Son.
" For me, this is a great and memorable moment in my life. I am happy to be here. I have the support of the coaching staff and my teammates and I hope I can contribute to the national team. As for how to celebrate if I score, I really haven't thought about that. But what I want most right now is to have a good performance.
I am very excited about tomorrow's match. Although the recent travel is a bit tiring, the whole team is very focused and confident to win, " said Nguyen Xuan Son.
This season, Nguyen Xuan Son has scored 14 goals in all competitions for Nam Dinh. Last season, he scored 31 goals in V.League alone. It is rare for the Vietnamese team to have a naturalized player at the peak of his form.
Coach Kim Sang-sik is looking forward to Xuan Son's performance. The Vietnamese team has not played too badly in the last 3 matches but has not been able to score in the first half. The strikers' ability to finish the match and handle difficult situations has not been demonstrated. If Nguyen Xuan Son plays to his full potential, the Vietnamese team will have an easier time competing in the upcoming matches at the AFF Cup 2024.
