Striker Nguyen Dinh Bac has an ankle injury. He will definitely not be able to play in the remaining two matches of the 2024 AFC U23 Championship group stage. On the morning of April 18, doctors will take Dinh Bac to the hospital for an X-ray. Through that, the medical team will be able to know exactly what kind of injury this player is suffering from.
In the 6th minute, Dinh Bac tried to slide the ball to get the ball for U23 Vietnam. The collision with a player from U23 Kuwait caused this striker to need medical attention. He returned to the field and tried to play, but after less than 3 minutes, a player from Quang Nam club signaled for a substitution.
Dinh Bac was injured.
Coach Hoang Anh Tuan brought Nguyen Van Truong onto the field to replace Nguyen Dinh Bac. This decision brought many positive changes to U23 Vietnam. Van Truong assisted Nguyen Van Tung to score the opening goal of the match at the end of the first half.
In the second half, the midfielder of Hanoi FC continued to play well and showed good football skills. Van Truong, Nguyen Thai Son and Vo Hoang Minh Khoa were the individuals who left an impression in the 90 minutes of the opening match of U23 Vietnam at the 2024 U23 Asian Cup finals.
Despite having good replacements, losing Dinh Bac for 2 matches is a big loss for U23 Vietnam because this player's ability to make individual breakthroughs and score goals is highly appreciated. First of all, coach Hoang Anh Tuan needs to have the best players in the match against U23 Malaysia in the second match. If they defeat this opponent, U23 Vietnam will qualify for the quarter-finals.
It is not impossible that the coach born in 1968 will use striker Nguyen Quoc Viet. He is the only striker who has not played in the match against U23 Kuwait. Van Tung, Vo Nguyen Hoang and Bui Vi Hao all completed their assigned tasks. They will have the opportunity to prove their abilities against U23 Malaysia.
The three-day break will be the time for U23 Vietnam to strengthen their defense and adjust their attack to aim for 3 points against U23 Malaysia.
