Ho Chi Minh City has prepared quite thoroughly for the new season. They have just participated in the Four Nations Friendly Cup, and also competed with a few other opponents in the V.League before the new season starts.
In terms of force, they still retain pillars such as Vo Huy Toan, Nguyen Ha Long, Patrik Le Giang... In addition, their squad adds new names such as Adriano Schmidt, Endrick Dos Santos Parafita, Erik Sorga, Matheus Duarte...
However, these are all young faces, not yet famous in V.League. Therefore, coach Phung Thanh Phuong will need some time to find the right tactics and arrangements.
On the other side of the front line, The Cong Viettel had friendly matches with Hanoi, Cong An Hanoi, Song Lam Nghe An last summer. They also did not invest much in the squad, mainly using available players from the youth team.
Regarding foreign players, coach Nguyen Duc Thang's team retained Pedro Henrique. They recruited midfielder Wesley Nata and striker Amarildo. Both new foreign players are from Brazil and previously played almost exclusively in this country.
With the goal of entering the top 3 in V.League and competing for the championship, fans are looking forward to Viettel's performance, especially the young stars who have just been promoted to the first team.
The match between Ho Chi Minh City vs The Cong Viettel takes place at 7:15 p.m. today, September 15, live on FPT Play.
