Expected lineup Vietnam vs India: Quang Hai starts, Tien Linh is on the bench

On the evening of October 12, the Vietnamese team will have the only friendly match during the FIFA Days in October 2024 against the Indian team. This is a match of great professional significance for the Vietnamese team. Because the Lebanese team did not participate in the tournament as originally planned, coach Kim Sang-sik lost an opportunity to test the squad and he will put a lot of calculations into the 90 minutes at Thien Truong Stadium.

Van Lam started in the practice match against Nam Dinh and Nguyen Filip could be the preferred choice in the starting lineup. The 1992-born goalkeeper needs a chance to “break the curse” because the Vietnamese team has not won in all the matches he has started.

Tien Linh (left) is injured.

With initial success and the 4-3-3 tactical formation, this is the right time for coach Kim Sang-sik to be confident in his strengths instead of being constrained by his predecessor. Bui Hoang Viet Anh and Que Ngoc Hai have become the most solid central defender pair at the moment. Hong Duy is prioritized on the left wing and the opposite wing will be called Pham Xuan Manh.

In the defensive midfielder position, Nguyen Thai Son is the top choice. Abundant physical strength, good movement and ball recovery ability help Thanh Hoa Club player gain trust. Recently, he has continuously scored goals thanks to powerful long-range shots.

Above Thai Son, there could be experienced names who can support the attack well, such as Hoang Duc and Quang Hai. Coach Kim Sang-sik is willing to take risks to seek an emotional victory.

In the forward line, when Nguyen Tien Linh was injured and uncertain to play, Nguyen Van Quyet became a good choice for the target striker position. Unlike his junior, Van Quyet handled the ball skillfully and coordinated better with his teammates. But at the age of 34, he could not be in good shape and run continuously.

The left wing is the presence of Nguyen Dinh Bac, the right wing is guarded by Nguyen Van Toan.
