Viet Tri Stadium was 'broken into'
On the evening of January 1, the Vietnamese team entered their final training session before the first leg of the AFF Cup 2024 final against Thailand (taking place at 8:00 p.m. on January 2). This was a practice session to familiarize themselves with the field according to the tournament organizers' practice, lasting 1 hour.
However, an incident occurred during the training session when a group of 3 people climbed onto the stadium's scoreboard to film and livestream the training session. This action was immediately discovered by the security team at Viet Tri Stadium. The security force intervened to prevent information about the training session from being leaked.

According to the regulations of the Vietnam Football Federation and the tournament organizing committee, press and media agencies (with press cards) are only allowed to cover the first 10 minutes of the official training sessions of the Vietnam team.
After this period, the teams will practice in private, under the close supervision of security forces. This is to ensure tactical secrecy as well as help players maintain concentration before the match.
The Vietnamese team has completed preparations for the first leg of the final against Thailand. Except for Van Toan and Tan Tai (injured), coach Kim Sang-sik still has 24 players for the decisive match.
The Vietnamese team is only one final hurdle away from winning the 2024 AFF Cup, Thailand. After defeating Singapore in the semi-finals and topping the group with Indonesia and the Philippines, Mr. Kim and his team are full of hope to reach the championship after 6 years of waiting.
However, the Thai opponent has been a nightmare for Vietnamese football for many years. In the last 7 encounters, Quang Hai and his teammates have not won any. In the 4 matches at the AFF Cup 2022 and 2020, the Vietnamese team only drew and lost, even failing to find the opponent's net in 3 matches.

"The Thai team is a big mountain, but what mountain is insurmountable? I hope I can bring the Vietnamese team to the top. I hope the players perform well," Kim Sang-sik shared.
After 6 months of training, Mr. Kim has completed the first goal with the Vietnamese team, which is to reach the AFF Cup final. The second goal is to help Vietnam play well against Thailand, which has happened in history, but not often. The last time the Vietnamese team beat Thailand in the AFF Cup was in 2008, in the first leg of the final at Rajamangala Stadium.
