HANOI (11 Aug 2013) – With less than ten days left to the start of the AFF Under-16 Championship, the two unfavourable results scored by the Vietnam U16 team certainly does not put them in good stead.
The Vietnam U16 squad fell to a 3-0 loss to the U17 team of Song Lam Nghe An before battling to a scoreless draw against Thanh Hoa U17.
The team under Dinh Van Dung will now focus on physical training before leaving for Naypyidaw in Myanmar for the championship slated for 20 August to 2 September.
Vietnam are in Group A against Brunei DS, Myanmar, Cambodia and Australia.
Group B are Singapore, Laos, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines.
