Coach Park's favorite student threw away a golden opportunity in the Vietnam national team

In the 79th minute of the match against China at Dalian Stadium (October 10 evening), Coach Troussier sent striker Nguyen Tien Linh onto the field with the goal of refreshing the Vietnamese team's attack.

Tien Linh is not in good form recently.

This is a reasonable decision by the French coach because at this time the Chinese players are running out of energy.

In addition, with his height and ability to sweep, Tien Linh is expected to handle high balls well, something that Tuan Hai or Van Toan could not do in the previous period.

In other words, this is a golden opportunity for the striker of Binh Duong Club to score points with coach Troussier.

However, after less than 10 minutes, Tien Linh was stripped of the right to play because of a foul on a Chinese player.

It is worth mentioning that before receiving the red card, the striker who was once the number 1 priority in the attack of the Vietnamese team had not yet had time to leave any mark.

For a strategist who is considered to have high standards like Mr. Troussier, it is clear that Tien Linh has somewhat lost serious points.

In the previous 3 matches of the Vietnamese team under coach Troussier against Hong Kong (China), Syria and Palestine, Tien Linh was called up but did not play.

The risk of Tien Linh losing his position in the Vietnam national team is present because while he is playing badly, other players in the Vietnam national team's attack line such as Tuan Hai and Van Toan are playing well.

It should also be added that coach Troussier only likes to use players who meet the requirements in terms of form and physical condition instead of "veterans".

The clearest proof is that he did not hesitate to cross out the names of familiar players such as Cong Phuong, Van Thanh, Hong Duy...

Therefore, if he continues to play sluggishly like he has recently, it probably won't be surprising if Coach Park's favorite player "disappears" from the Vietnamese national team.
