Two shows of the entertainment event “Brother Say Hi” were held on December 7 and 9. At this time, all equipment for this event has been removed from the grass of My Dinh Stadium.
The grass surface of My Dinh yard is yellow in many places, the grass is peeling and no longer flat due to the impact of the favi panels.
According to records, it can be seen that the surface of My Dinh yard is yellow in many places when covered by favi panels. A similar situation also appeared when Vietnam hosted the SEA Games. Accordingly, the grass surface of My Dinh Stadium also had many yellow spots and was no longer flat after the opening night of the regional sports festival.
At the AFF Cup 2024, the Vietnamese team plays its first home match against Indonesia on December 15 (6 days after the “Brother Say Hi” event). Because the grass surface of My Dinh Stadium did not recover in time and did not meet competition conditions, the Vietnam Football Federation (VFF) had to choose Viet Tri Stadium (Phu Tho) as the home field for coach Kim Sang-sik and his team.
