Experiment

Having quickly secured a ticket to the 2024 AFC U23 Championship after two victories against U23 Guam (6-0) and U23 Yemen (1-0), coach Philippe Troussier will certainly let his team test the squad and personnel in the match against U23 Singapore at Viet Tri Stadium on the evening of September 12 in the final qualifying round.

However, with 23 players registered (including 3 goalkeepers), in the past matches, coach Philippe Troussier has also tested and given opportunities to most of the players on the list, so the French captain is likely to only make small adjustments.

U23 Vietnam will give new players a chance in the match against U23 Singapore

Although not completely changing the starting lineup, it is very likely that the captain of U23 Vietnam will also have changes in the way of playing to be more effective than the previous 2 victories.

This is necessary, because in reality, although the goal of winning and qualifying for the U23 Asian Cup was achieved, the playing style and tactical operation of U23 Vietnam still have many problems that make Mr. Troussier worried.

And win beautifully

Based on the performance in the last two matches, it is clear that U23 Singapore is not highly rated compared to coach Philippe Troussier's team. That is not because of the results but also because of the way the young players of the Lion Island play.

It is not surprising that U23 Singapore did not play well when in fact, at SEA Games 32, this team was also eliminated early in the group stage with 3 losses against Vietnam, Thailand and Malaysia as well as only a draw against Laos.

and against a not so strong opponent like U23 Singapore, victory will come to U23 Vietnam.

Against a not-so-strong opponent, even if they make changes or make big experiments in terms of personnel and playing style... perhaps victory will still be difficult to escape from the hands of coach Philippe Troussier's students in the final match of the 2024 U23 Asian qualifiers.

But clearly, fans, experts, and coach Philippe Troussier are no longer focusing on the result or score in this procedural match, but on how U23 Vietnam performs after two previous less-than-beautiful victories.

Hopefully, with a relaxed spirit, U23 Vietnam will have the best match to create trust with fans before aiming for the goals ahead.

Prediction: U23 Vietnam 4-0 U23 Singapore

Expected lineup: Huy Hoang, Quang Thinh, Duy Cuong, Hong Phuc, Huu Nam, Nhat Nam, Minh Khoa, Van Khang, Dinh Bac, Van Tung, Vi Hao
