"In the past time, Hanoi FC did not have good results, but the whole team still kept their spirit until the last minute. This is a difficult match, but the whole team will enter the field with the best spirit, to achieve the best results.
I myself have been with Hanoi FC for 8-9 years, a very long time. This time is not too bad and we have faced many more difficulties, this is nothing, we will hold hands tightly to overcome this difficult time.

Moreover, Hanoi FC will play at home, we will aim to win 3 points against the Chinese club. Having points is great but we will aim for a victory", Thanh Chung expressed his determination before the match against Wuhan Three Towns.
The Vietnamese national team's central defender added that even though they win a lot, they also lose sometimes, the same goes for foreign clubs, sometimes they lose 3-4 matches and receive criticism. Hanoi FC always dedicates itself to the fans and understands football, not paying attention to negative comments about the team.
Meanwhile, despite losing 3 matches and almost having no chance of advancing, assistant coach Le Duc Tuan affirmed that Hanoi FC will fight to the end in the 2023-2024 AFC Champions League.
"We have been actively preparing for the upcoming match. After 3 matches without good results, all of which were defeats, this is the 2nd match at home, so we are very focused and trying to contribute a good match.
In the group stage, Hanoi FC lost 3 matches, the goal of entering the next round is almost gone. The schedule ahead is very tight, so the coaching staff rotates for each match. The list of Hanoi FC registered to compete with other teams is also very limited, so we will rotate young players, players who have not been used much, in the coming time aiming for the best results.

Our squad is very thin, with Marcao's injury and Van Nam's suspension, we have to rotate to get quality players to compensate for the young players. We have chosen the players to compete tomorrow," said assistant coach Le Duc Tuan.
Assistant Le Duc Tuan said that Hanoi FC will have flexible adjustments in personnel to aim for the best results: "The old coach selected 6 foreign players. Tague is a good player, but he is suspended, we have an alternative plan.
We will choose suitable players, demonstrate the team's playing style and aim for the best results. Hanoi FC has Tuan Hai and Van Tung, both of whom are national players, which are important factors to score for the club in tomorrow's match," said assistant Duc Tuan.
As Hanoi FC has almost no chance of advancing, many people are questioning the team's goals in the upcoming matches. Assistant Duc Tuan affirmed: "The club's leaders have assigned targets for the AFC Champions League, moreover, the V-League must play well and contribute to the audience.
Therefore, even though Hanoi FC is eliminated, they still have to give their best in every match. The goal of V-League is still the highest position, this time is a bit difficult, consider every match as the final, try every match to overcome it".
The match between Hanoi FC and Wuhan Three Towns in the AFC Champions League group stage will take place at 7:00 p.m. on November 8 at My Dinh Stadium (Hanoi).
