After the match, the head coach of U.17 Vietnam shared: "Losing to U.17 Japan is normal. The important thing is that we still have a chance to continue if we play well in the last match. Therefore, we must forget this loss and focus on the final, decisive match with U.17 Uzbekistan."
Despite losing 0-4 to U.17 Japan, U.17 Vietnam still has a chance to advance to the quarter-finals if they beat U.17 Uzbekistan in the final match. Because according to the tournament rules, if two teams have the same number of points, the head-to-head record will be taken into account first.

Coach Hoang Anh Tuan said: "Regarding the match result, we certainly cannot be happy. But in fact, U.17 Japan is a very strong team. In this match, they performed very well. But I believe U.17 Vietnam still has a chance to advance to the next round when there is still the final match against U.17 Uzbekistan.
In this match, some positions were not in good condition. The two full-backs and the central defenders could not stick to the opponent in the last 20 minutes... that was one of the reasons. Actually, the other team was very strong, deployed the game well. While we were not in the best physical condition and had to change some positions. Physical strength was the biggest weakness of U.17 Vietnam in this match. Surely in the next match, you will see U.17 Vietnam play with a completely different spirit. Regarding preparation, I cannot answer right now. Let's wait until the match starts."
U.17 Japan has a tight playing style, with good individual technique and physique.
The match between U.17 Vietnam and U.17 Uzbekistan will take place at 7:00 p.m. on June 23.
