Making Iraq U23 helpless, U23 Vietnam received constant praise from the opponent’s coach

U23 Vietnam’s opening match at the Dubai Cup 2022 ended with a 0-0 draw against an opponent from West Asia, U23 Iraq. In today’s match, both teams had chances but neither team scored and had to hold each other.

Anyway, holding a draw with a higher-rated team like Iraq U23 is also an acceptable result of “Golden Star Warriors”. At the same time, showing solid defensive ability also helps teachers and coaches Lee Young-jin become more confident before the match against strong U23 Croatia team 3 days later.

Sharing in the interview after the match, coach Miroslav Soukup on the U23 side of Iraq was impressed by the strength of U23 Vietnam players:

“Of course U23 Vietnam is a very strong team. They have shown quality in their playing style. Vietnamese players are very fast, possess good pace and their ability is completely on par with U23’s. Iraq.

In the second half, we were the better team. Iraq U23 excelled in possession and also had definite opportunities to score. However, the final match ended with a 0-0 draw. I think that’s a reasonable result that reflects this match. Both teams had a fairly even position and both wanted to score, but neither team was luckier.”

Iraq U23’s next opponent will be U23 Saudi Arabia. Although he highly appreciates this opponent, Coach Soukup is also completely confident that his team will play well in the upcoming match:

“I think the next match we will face many difficulties because the opponent is Saudi Arabia. However, we also have experience playing against this opponent because U23 Iraq and U23 Saudi Arabia have touched each other. face in the semi-finals of the Western Asia U23 tournament 2021. In that match, the match was quite close and we only lost with a score of 0-1.

The most important thing for me today is that no one in the team has been injured. We are all ready for the next challenge.”
