What will U22 Vietnam gain if they escape the bottom group at the SEA Games
According to calculations, if in seed group No. 4, U22 Vietnam has a 60% chance of being in the same group as U22 Thailand, because Thailand will be in a group with 6 teams and the Organizing Committee will select 3 teams in seed group No. 4 for this group.
If the complaint is successful, U22 Vietnam will be in seed group No. 3, at this time the possibility of meeting Thailand will be 50%. In addition, being in seed group No. 3 also helps U22 Vietnam avoid a strong opponent, which is an opportunity for Coach Park Hang-seo to rotate the squad for big matches.
Coach Park Hang-seo is not tired of "taking the road" to the SEA Games
Immediately after learning that U22 Vietnam was placed in seed group No. 4 at the 30th SEA Games, Coach Park Hang-seo affirmed that the home team did not have to fear any opponents. According to the Korean strategist, if they want to win the gold medal, U22 Vietnam must determine to win all opponents.
"Once we have decided to win the championship, we should not be afraid of any opponent. Vietnamese football does not need to avoid any opponents in Southeast Asia and there is nothing to fear from Thailand anymore," said Mr. Park.
AFC Reject Thailand's Supachai Rescue Proposal
As is known, Supachai of Thailand U23 recently received a penalty from the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) for a red card for hitting Dinh Trong in the 2020 U23 Asian qualifiers.
In order to save the situation, the Football Association of Thailand has proposed applying a penalty to Supachai in the matches of the King's Cup or the 2022 World Cup qualifiers.
However, the FAT response was that the penalty could not be applied in such a direction, because the King's Cup is a friendly tournament not under the management of the AFC and FIFA. If the penalty is applied in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers, it can be done, but on the condition that Supachai cannot wear the Thailand U23 team jersey to participate in the 2020 AFC U23 Championship.
