Cambodia head coach Leonardo Vitorino eyes Vietnam victory

Cambodia head coach Leonardo Vitorino has been confident about the Kouprey’s chances of winning over Vietnam in the 2019 AFC Asian Cup qualification on Tuesday.

After stunning Afghanistan in the sensational 1-0 win in June, Vitorino and his men are eager to pulling off another breakout victory in the qualification.

“Playing at home is our advantage and the team will use it to win. Vietnam are a very strong team but we have worked hard to prepare for this match,” Vitorino said in a press conference, as quoted by Mot The Gioi.

“Our youth team suffered a loss against them, but at that time we did not have the best players in our squad.
And after each defeat, the players become stronger by learning and analyzing their strengths and weaknesses.

I believe Cambodian players will have a great chance of winning this match.”

With three points earned from Afghanistan win, the Vitorino’s side move up to second in the group behind Jordan.
