Coach Kim Sang-sik understands that he has to choose the safest option and cannot please everyone in the very important match with Thailand. Goalkeeper Nguyen Dinh Trieu - the most stable player in recent times will be trusted to start against Thailand. Nguyen Filip will still have to sit on the bench and Trung Kien will not be registered to play.
Nguyen Van Vi showed signs of fatigue and his performance was not very good. Therefore, Mr. Kim Sang-sik likely wanted Xuan Manh to play left back. On the right wing, Van Thanh's defense was not very good but he was very suitable for the Vietnamese team's style of play.
Nguyen Filip sat on the bench.
In the central defender position, coach Kim Sang-sik will likely continue to trust Nguyen Thanh Chung to play in the center, with Bui Tien Dung on the left and Do Duy Manh on the right. In front of the defense is a mobile shield named Doan Ngoc Tan. He needs to maintain this fighting spirit before the challenge at Rajamangala Stadium. Playing next to Ngoc Tan is Hoang Duc.
After an ineffective first half, Vi Hao gave way to Quang Hai. In a match that requires more defense than attack, Thanh Binh and Ngoc Quang will start to support Xuan Son.
Thailand lost 1-2 to Vietnam in the first leg of the final at Viet Tri Stadium ( Phu Tho province). The AFF Cup 2024 does not have an away goal rule. Therefore, if Thailand wants to turn the tables, they need to win by at least 2 goals. If Thailand wins by only 1 goal, the two teams will play extra time and may need a penalty shootout.
The Thai team actually faced quite a few disadvantages before the second leg of the final. They had to play a tense 120 minutes against the Philippines and then immediately travel to Vietnam, then return to Thailand. The Vietnamese team played the second leg of the semi-final and the first leg of the final at home. Therefore, coach Kim Sang-sik and his team had the advantage of days off and travel conditions.
The second leg of the 2024 AFF Cup final will take place at 8:00 p.m. on January 5.
