The Ho Chi Minh City University of Agriculture and Forestry team only needs a draw to advance, but coach Phan Hoang Vu is cautious: "There is no easy match. The qualifying round of the 2024 TNSV THACO Cup is very harsh, the matches are all difficult. Most teams have made progress thanks to careful preparation. The UEF team has made great progress compared to the first tournament. Therefore, we must focus on the "final" match of the group, to avoid any unfortunate events."
