According to defender Ho Tan Tai, the Vietnamese team is having healthy competition in many positions and this is very beneficial for coach Park Hang Seo.

- The training session on May 21 was the first time that no one in the Vietnam team had to practice separately due to injury. Do you think this is a big motivation for the whole team?

- The fact that no player has to practice separately on May 21 is very good news for both the players and the coaching staff so that they can review the team in the best way to prepare for the next 3 matches.

- Can you tell us the reason why the Vietnamese team no longer has any injuries?

- Previous injuries were carefully treated by the medical team to achieve the best recovery.

- In this training session, Coach Park called many players to play in the right-back position. As someone who often plays right-back, what do you think about the competition in this position?

- Actually, in this training session, there are many overlapping positions. Through the training sessions and calculations of coach Park, I believe that he will choose the best people and positions. As for me and other players, we all have the most comfortable and best competition to be chosen by coach Park.

- Tai can play in many different positions. If coach Park arranges Tai to play in the center back position, what do you think?

- I am capable of playing in many positions, so if coach Park assigns me a position, I will try my best to play in that position.

- Is this the most important national team training session for Tai, becausenational teamare facing the opportunity to enter the third qualifying round of the 2022 World Cup for the first time?

- For me, the focus is onnational teamEvery training session is valuable, but this training session is an important event because the Vietnamese team can compete successfully in this World Cup qualifier.

- During the last training days before going to UAE, did coach Park make any adjustments to the training program?

- Due to the epidemic situation, it is very difficult to concentrate on training, but coach Park has created exercises to help the whole team have the best spirit for the upcoming 3 difficult matches.
