The Vietnamese team plays on Binh Duong Stadium
The Vietnamese team has gathered in mid -March, to prepare for the international friendly match against Cambodia, along with the opening match of the Asian Cup 2027 qualifier against Laos.
In particular, the match between the Vietnamese and Cambodian teams took place at 19:30 tomorrow (19.3), taking place on the stadium of Binh Duong province. Fans can watch the match directly FPT Play.
The schedule of the Vietnamese team
The Vietnamese team has a record to win against Cambodia. In the last 2 matches, in the framework of the AFF Cup, Quang Hai and his teammates poured 7 goals into the opponent’s net.
However, the rematch between the two teams in Binh Duong promises many challenges for the Vietnamese team. Because the Cambodian team has improved in recent years. At the AFF Cup 2024, coach and coach Koji Gyotoku won Timor Leste (2-1), drew Malaysia (2-2) and lost close to Singapore (1-2), Thailand (2-3).
The philosophy of technical football, prioritizing control by short passes operating synchronously at many team levels, combined with naturalized players from Japan, Africa and the Americas helped the Cambodian team to transform itself.
Therefore, although the Cambodian team stopped in the first qualifying round of the Asian Cup 2027 against Sri Lanka, this is still an opponent that is not easily defeated.
In an interview with the press before the afternoon training session (17.3), defender Bui Tien Dung said that the whole team had quality training sessions, with physical exercises and tactics towards the upcoming two matches.
He also said that the friendly match against Cambodia will be an opportunity for the first time players to be called or the players who have not played for a long time. Bui Tien Dung affirmed that the goal of the whole team is the best effort to show both training and competition.
The Cambodian team brought 5 naturalized players to Vietnam
In the list of 23 Cambodian players will go to Binh Duong, there are 5 naturalized foreign soldiers and 18 native players.
The naturalized foreign players of the Cambodian team include striker Nieto Rondon (Colombian origin), defender Takaki Ose and Yudai Ogawa from Japan, striker Coulibaly Abdel Kader from Ivory Coast and defender Kanh Mo from South Africa. These players have played very prominent at the AFF Cup 2024.
With coach Koji Gyotoku, the match against the Vietnamese team is the official launch of this 60 -year -old Japanese leader, after having just signed a contract with a 1 -year period leading the Cambodian team and U.23 and U.22 teams to attend SEA Games 33 in Thailand later this year.
