On October 9, the press conference of the National 7-a-side Football Cup - Hyundai Thanh Cong Cup 2024 (VSC-S4) took place in Hanoi.

Speaking at the press conference, Mr. Pham Ngoc Tuan - General Director of Vietfootball Joint Stock Company - shared: "This year's tournament increased the number of participating teams, creating high competition and bringing great football parties to fans.
