We can still improve, says Vietnam’s Giustozzi

Kuwait City: Vietnam enjoyed a blistering start to their AFC Futsal Asian Cup™ Kuwait 2022 Group D campaign by beating Korea Republic 5-1 on Wednesday, but head coach Diego Giustozzi - while happy - believes there is still room for improvement.

Vietnam conceded a goal 20 seconds into the match at the Saad Al Abdullah Hall, but their tenacity saw them equalise a minute later, before securing a two-goal advantage heading into the break.

A further two goals mean Vietnam now lead Group D, ahead of Saudi Arabia - who beat Japan 2-1 - on goal difference.
