In the past 3 years, the domestic tournament has not taken place, there has been no award. professional to maintain the performance of the players. When you are a weak team, you have to work hard.

When I say goodbye to this tournament, I still feel proud of my players. We have faced many professional opponents. They have been competing in many major tournaments over the past few years. I am a coach who likes to play offensively, but when I met U23 Vietnam, I was too strong, so I had to play defensively.”
