Vietnam U23 closed the group stage with 3 wins, against Saudi Arabia U23, Kirgistan U23 and Jordan U23. A really surprise considering they departed as 3rd team by qualities.
However in some games have been luckily like the own goal against Kirgistan and the win against Saudi Arabia where the host were playing like all-in.
This team has been training together for a long time and is familiar with coach Kim Sang-sik's tactics, especially in executing tight defense and quick counter attacks with great efficiency.
UAE U23 finished second collecting 4 points in a difficult group with Japan U23, Qatar U23 and Syria U23. They also provided a surprise qualifying against such strong opponents. In the 0-3 against Japan coach made a rotation and used many reserve players.
Defense remains their key to the win although occasional mistakes still occur.
It's expected today a very closed game with probably a few chances. Both teams are playing almost identically, relying on defense and counter attacking.
I rate UAE better here, used to play in such conditions and in better physical form.
GL!
越南U23以3胜结束小组赛,分别对阵沙特阿拉伯U23、吉尔吉斯斯坦U23和约旦U23。考虑到他们是实力第三的球队,这真是令人惊讶。
然而,也有一些比赛是幸运的,比如对吉尔吉斯斯坦的乌龙球,以及对沙特阿拉伯的胜利,东道主踢得很全力以赴。
这支球队长期在一起训练,熟悉金相植教练的战术,特别是在执行严密防守和快速反击方面效率很高。
阿联酋U23以4分排名第二,与日本U23、卡塔尔U23和叙利亚U23同组。他们在预选赛中也出人意料地击败了如此强大的对手。在0-3对阵日本的比赛中,教练进行了轮换,使用了很多替补球员。
防守仍然是他们取胜的关键,尽管偶尔也会出现失误。
今天是一场势均力敌的比赛,可能会有一些机会。两支球队的打法几乎一模一样,都是依靠防守和反击。
我认为阿联酋在这里更好,他们曾经在这样的条件下比赛,身体状态也更好。
