Today, October 22, the press conference before the matches took place. Sharing in this press conference, Coach Cristiano Roland of U17 Vietnam said: "We have 2 training sessions in China and Japan, that is the best preparation for this tournament. This is not an easy group, the challenges are very difficult but the U17 Vietnam team will compete with all their might.

During the time in Japan, the team did not have Gia Bao, but the whole team still practiced and prepared the best. The players are the same, when he returned, it was a good addition but we also aimed for a common goal to show fighting spirit and solidarity.

I hope fans come to the stadium to cheer for the home team because this is youth football, the kids always need encouragement to achieve their goals."
