Hai is without doubt one of the most important players in the national team under South Korean manager Park Hang-seo. He is also regarded as one of the best Vietnamese footballers of his generation. The 23-year-old midfielder’s trophy cabinet includes three V. League titles, one Super Cup and one National Cup that he won with Hanoi FC. In 2018, he helped U23 Vietnam finish second at the AFC U23 Championship by scoring important goals. A few months later, Hai won the AFF Cup with the national team and in 2019, the SEA Games gold medal with the U22 team. It is a widespread belief that the year of a person’s zodiac animal, which comes around once every 12 years, can be challenging for that person. But Hai said he didn’t mind the challenges that he will face this year. "Many people say your zodiac year will be unlucky, but I think I also had some bad luck in 2020.

Another bright prospect for Vietnamese football, Trong, has the maturity and resilience of a veteran defender at his young age. His star shone brightly in 2018 as he won the V. League and Super Cup with Hanoi FC; and became one of the key defenders in Vietnam’s AFF Cup victory. However, after Asian Cup 2019, where Vietnam finished in the top eight, Trong has been struggling with knee injuries. The center-back has undergone three surgeries in two years and hasn’t been on top of his form. But whenever he is healthy, Trong is a top defense choice for …
