The goalkeeper position is probably where Park Hang-seo coach has the most concern at the moment. Both Van Toan and Bui Tien Dung have made serious mistakes in the last two matches of U22 Vietnam. They could not protect the net. However, with Park Hang-seo style, perhaps Bui Tien Dung will be the chosen one.
The central defender trio will likely still be Van Hau, Thanh Chung and Tan Sinh. The trio has completed the task by coorperating well together against Thailand's U22. All these 3 players can also join the attack very smoothly, this will be a threat for the defense of Cambodia’s U22 in the upcoming match.
In the center of midfield, Do Hung Dung will definitely be the first choice. The other one is likely to be Tran Thanh Son. After a tense match against Thailand U22, Trieu Viet Hung's fitness will probably not be guaranteed, so Thanh Son will be a suitable replacement in this position.
The left wing will be Thanh Thinh’s task, an impressive player and an assist in the match against Thailand U22. On the right side, Park will give the opportunity to Tan Tai. Confronting with Cambodia helps him regain his form, as well as the trust from fans.
On the attack, U22 Vietnam has a little change compared to the starting lineup agaisnt U22 Thailand. Hoang Duc with impressive performance in the group stage will certainly be the first name selected by coach Park Hang-seo. With Quang Hai and Trong Hung both injured, coach Park Hang Seo was forced to push Trong Hoang to play the right striker.

Tien Linh and Duc Chinh, both have 5 goals, are suitable names for the center forward positions. However, Mr. Park is likely to put Tien Linh on the bench and put his faith in Duc Chinh in the match against Cambodia U22.
The semi-final between U22 Vietnam and U22 Cambodia will be held at 7:00PM on Dec 7. This will be a very good opportunity for U22 Vietnam to reach the final and bring back the gold medal for Vietnamese football at SEA Games 30.
