It also called on press agencies to increase the coverage of this match, scheduled to take place at Viet Tri Stadium at 7pm on April 19, so as to attract public attention.
The match will give fans nationwide a chance to enjoy the performance of Vietnam’s U23 team, who are gearing up themselves for defending their gold medal at the 31st Southeast Asian Games (SEA Games), to be hosted by Vietnam this May.
It will also give Phu Tho an opportunity to affirm its prestige and sense of responsibility towards organising major sports events, including matches in Group A and a semifinal of the men’s football of the 31st SEA Games at its Viet Tri Stadium.
The two teams are set to arrive in Phu Tho on late April 15. They will undergo training at the province’s sports complex and Tam Nong district’s stadium before coming to Viet Tri Stadium for familiarisation on April 18./.
