Before the AFF Cup 2024, Dinh Trieu was only considered the second choice in goal for the Vietnamese team, after Nguyen Filip. However, the goalkeeper born in 1991 has made constant efforts and received the trust of coach Kim Sang-sik. Dinh Trieu started 6/8 matches, including 5 consecutive matches from the last group stage match against Myanmar to the two semi-finals and the final. The remaining match he started was the opening match against Laos. Dinh Trieu's excellence greatly contributed to helping the Vietnamese team win the AFF Cup for the third time. After the final match against Thailand, Dinh Trieu was also honored as the Best Goalkeeper of the AFF Cup 2024.

This is not only his pride but also the pride of Hai Phong football. An inspiring journey, and he deserves all that he has achieved.

Prime Minister praised the Vietnamese team but emphasized the need to be humble and strive.

After winning the championship with the Vietnamese team, Dinh Trieu shared: "The Best Goalkeeper award is thanks to the efforts of my teammates. I only contributed a small part. I am very lucky to play with good teammates. They contributed with me to this achievement of the Vietnamese team. The team spirit is wonderful.

Winning the championship in the first time wearing the Vietnamese national team shirt is a miracle, at that time I was dreaming. 10 years ago, I retired from football. I didn't think that 10 years later, I would stand here and win the championship with the national team. In my dreams, I didn't even dare to think about it. When I returned to football, I just wanted to challenge myself again, telling myself to persevere with my passion, keep being enthusiastic and you will succeed."
