Ambassador Nguyen Vu Tu said he hopes the Korean tactician will
continue accompanying Vietnam’s football teams and help them gain new successes
at the qualification rounds of the AFC U-23 Championship 2020, World Cup 2022,
and SEA Games 2019.
Park said he planned a trip to Cambodia
to follow the U-22 Southeast Asian Championship from February 17-26 with the
participation of the U-22 Vietnam football team.
His purpose is to seek new talented
footballers to play for the U-23 team in the AFC U-23 Championship 2020
qualification round.
Park Hang-seo has become a hero of
Vietnamese football after leading the U-23 team to the finale of the AFC U-23
Championship 2018 in China.
He also led the national football team to win
the AFF Suzuki Cup 2018 and most recently progress to the quarterfinals of the
AFC Asian Cup 2019

While modern sports like volleyball and football continue to grow in popularity, traditional folk games and ethnic sports remain a vibrant and essential part of cultural life among the Muong community in Hoa Binh province.
A total of 85 young players from across Hoa Binh province recently participated in the provincial Youth Table Tennis Tournament.
