The Vietnam national team has donated USD 13,000 (VND 300 million) to the Vietnam COVID-19 vaccine fund.

This was in response to the Vietnam governmentā€™s call for the vaccine to be made available to the general populace.

Head coach Park Hang-seo thanked the Vietnam government and the Vietnam fans who had always supported the team.

ā€œBefore traveling to the UAE for the Asian qualifiers, we were lucky to be given the COVID-19 vaccine according to the priority accorded by the government,ā€ said captain Que Ngoc Hai.

ā€œMy team and I understood the importance of getting vaccinated. Being a part of this campaign to fight the pandemic is an honour for us.ā€

Vietnamā€™s next match in the Asian qualifiers will be against Malaysia on 11 June 2021.
