Vietnam is currently the top-ranked team in the tri-nation series. During their first match of the friendly tournament, the Golden Star Warriors defeated Singapore 4-0.
Match Timings
The match between India and Singapore will take place at the Thong Nhat Stadium in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, on September 27, 2022 and the kick-off time is at 5:30 pm IST. The match will be live telecast in India on Eurosport and JIO TV will also live stream the match.
Vietnam’s Run In The Tournament
So far Vietnam have had a good run in the friendly tournament. Moreover, Vietnam are playing at home, which is an added advantage for the team. As such, finishing the tournament on a high note will be a priority, especially with the home crowd support.
Igor Stimacโs men, on the other hand, will be looking to rebound from a frustrating draw against Singapore in their first match. Vietnam defeated Singapore 4-0 in the first friendly. Fans last saw the team in action back in June, when they faced Afghanistan in another international friendly.
There, Vietnam won by 2-0. The Vietnam Men’s football team is currently on a three-match unbeaten streak, having last lost in Marchโs FIFA World Cup third-round qualifiers against Oman.
Vietnamโs most recent official competition was the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers. They finished with a disappointing last place in their third-round qualifiers, with only one win in ten matches.
Thus ending their chances of competing in the World Cup in Qatar. However, the world 97th-ranked nation finished on a high note, drawing 1-1 with Japan in their final game.
Tournament Favourites
Vietnam are the favourites in theย ongoing friendly football tournament, and they want to live up to that expectation. They will very likely play good football against a new-look India, thanks to the vocal home support.
The team has good players in all positions backed up with a tactically strong coach. Therefore, they will probably go all-out to win the final game of the tournament. A draw against India is all they need to win the Hung Thinh friendly tournament trophy.
India on the other hand should be wary of the threat posed by Vietnam and plan its strategies accordingly.ย However, notably it is the Blue Tigers who have maintained a much better record against their hosts Vietnam, whom they are set to face on the 27th of the same month.
The Blue Tigers played their last game against Vietnam in 2010, and boasts of bagging nine wins out of 14 along with three draws.
