U20 Iran still has a chance to compete for a ticket to the next round, but needs a victory in the last match of Group C. The West Asian representative possesses physical advantage, and also has the ability to accelerate the pace immediately after winning the ball.
This is also something that U20 Vietnam needs to pay special attention to. Coach Yutaka Ikeuchi's team cannot choose a safe playing style if they want to maintain hope, because the requirement is to beat U20 Iran by at least 2 goals. Besides, U20 Vietnam also has to wait for U20 Palestine to lose to U20 DPRK.
U20 Vietnam is having problems in their ability to convert opportunities. Against Palestine, the home team created many situations to approach the goal but did not take advantage effectively and suffered a 1-2 defeat.
The ball deployment method mainly relies on short combinations, bringing the ball through the central area, but has not created stability when the opponent puts pressure.
If they continue to push high in the decisive match, U20 Vietnam will face the risk of revealing gaps behind. This is an area that U20 Iran can exploit by switching states, making the problem of both scoring goals and limiting errors important for the home team.
The match between U20 Vietnam and U20 Iran takes place at 7:00 PM today (September 6), live on TV360.
