Quan Van Chuan lost confidence, difficult to keep position at Vietnam Olympic?

Coach Hoang Anh Tuan placed Quan Van Chuan in the Vietnam Olympic team's lineup for the first match at ASIAD 19 against Mongolia Olympic. However, in the upcoming two important matches against Saudi Arabia Olympic and Iran Olympic, Do Sy Huy is likely to be the one chosen as the goalkeeper.

Quan Van Chuan's performance has not created a sense of security, not only in the match against Olympic Mongolia. Many viewers who have watched U23 Vietnam recently have realized the problems of the Hanoi FC goalkeeper. Those are the situations of high balls and the decisiveness in entering and exiting.

Not being able to play for the club clearly affected Quan Van Chuan's playing feeling. In addition, the fouls - even those that did not lead to a goal - made the goalkeeper lose confidence. This situation often happens to young players.

Coach Hoang Anh Tuan's decision to let Quan Van Chuan start in the match against Olympic Mongolia is not difficult to understand. Perhaps this coach wants to create opportunities for the Hanoi FC goalkeeper to play, maintain his feeling and confidence.

However, when facing Olympic Iran and Olympic Saudi Arabia, Quan Van Chuan will likely have to give up his goalkeeping position to his teammates. These are important matches and have a higher level of difficulty for Olympic Vietnam. Facing strong opponents, directly competing for a place in the round of 16, Coach Hoang Anh Tuan needs a goalkeeper with higher reliability.

In fact, as soon as the list of Vietnamese Olympic players for ASIAD 19 was announced, fans guessed that Do Sy Huy was the number one choice. He was the only overage player called up by coach Hoang Anh Tuan (Nham Manh Dung was also included in the list but was actually still in the U24 age group).

Quan Van Chuan has not yet created a sense of security in the goalkeeper position.

Although he only played 3 matches for Hanoi Police Club in V-League 2023, in the previous season, Do Sy Huy was the main goalkeeper for the police team in the First Division. Compared to his teammates Quan Van Chuan and Cao Van Binh, Do Sy Huy's experience is much better.

Coach Hoang Anh Tuan once explained his choice for the overage positions. This coach identified goalkeeper as one of the three positions that need reinforcement. He will not waste a reinforcement position if he does not choose Do Sy Huy as the main goalkeeper.

Besides, there is another reason to believe that the 1998-born goalkeeper will play in the next two matches of the Vietnam Olympic team, not Quan Van Chuan or Cao Van Binh. Do Sy Huy is the captain of this tournament.
