The Vietnamese-origin Alexander Dang shined and expressed his desire to serve the Vietnam national team.
Vietnam is in the preparation phase for the qualifying round in World Cup 2022. Park Hang-seo is planned to give out the 27-man list to be summoned up in which the striker position still left a question mark.
Earlier, Alexander Dang emerges as a suitable name for this position. Even more, Park Hang-seo visited Norwegain to scout him yet no positive result revealed.
Alexander Dang did not give up and continued training and contributed for Nest Sotra. In the match on June 16, he brought back 1 point for his home team, which might score in Park’s eyes.
The South Korean strategist revealed 3 criteria to call a player: desire to contribute for Vietnam, good professional skills, Vietnamese citizenship provided.
Alexander Dang is going to meet those demand by World Cup 2022 yet he still needs to put more effort if he wants to represent Vietnam in World Cup 2022.
Mikail Adampour, Alex’s representative said coach Park highly appreciates the Norwegain striker as he fits the squad as well as Park’s playstyle: “We had a nice dinner together. Mr Park talked about Alex role in World Cup 2022 qualifiers. We listened to his comments that Alex is apparently suitable with the formation and his playstyle”.
In the second qualifying round, Vietnam national team is pooled in pot 2 which will prevent facing hard-fought opponents including Iraq, Uzbekistan, Syria or Lebanon. If Alex is summoned up, Vietnam will definitely go deeper.
