Vietnam, led by coach Park Hang-seo, advanced to the final qualifying round of the World Cup for the first time ever.
Manager Park honestly confessed that he wanted to avoid Korea in the final qualifying round.
While coach Park Hang-seo was unable to sit on the bench due to accumulation of warnings, Vietnam showed a back spirit, but lost 3-2 to the United Arab Emirates and suffered their first defeat in the second qualifying round.
However, they finished second in the group and for the first time in their history they won the final qualifying ticket.
Coach Park said that he would like to avoid Korea, although he would challenge another new history in the final qualifiers.
[Park Hang-seo/Vietnam National Team Manager: (Korea) is better not to meet.
It's burdensome.
It is true that it is burdensome in my country.]
