On his verified Facebook account, former Vietnam national team coach Park Hang-seo shared his heartfelt condolences and words of encouragement to the families affected by Typhoon Yagi, which has caused widespread devastation across northern Vietnam.
Typhoon No. 3, internationally known as Yagi, has inflicted significant damage to both life and property in various regions of Vietnam. In the aftermath of the storm, provinces in northern Vietnam are grappling with severe flooding and landslides, with many areas isolated due to rising floodwaters.
Upon learning about the situation from afar, Coach Park Hang-seo, currently residing in South Korea, took to social media to offer his support. On his verified Facebook page, he wrote, “I would like to extend my deepest condolences and encouragement to the families who have suffered from the devastation caused by Typhoon Yagi in recent days.”
He continued, “I have learned that many provinces in Vietnam are currently facing extreme weather conditions and are in critical situations. However, I know how strong and united the Vietnamese people are, and I am confident that you will overcome this difficult time. From South Korea, I continue to keep everyone in Vietnam in my thoughts and hope that you all stay safe.”
Despite parting ways with the Vietnam national team, Coach Park Hang-seo remains a beloved figure in Vietnam for his achievements and connection with the people. His message has resonated deeply with his followers, many of whom have appreciated his ongoing concern for the country.
Currently, Park Hang-seo has yet to secure a new coaching role after his departure from the Vietnam national team. Meanwhile, the Vietnam national team, now led by coach Kim Sang-sik, is set to face Thailand in an international friendly match at 8 PM on September 10, 2024.
In light of the recent events, the Vietnam Football Federation (VFF) announced that a minute of silence will be observed before the friendly match between Vietnam and Thailand, as a tribute to the victims of Typhoon Yagi. The VFF’s statement reads: “The VFF will hold a minute of silence before the international friendly match between the Vietnam national team and the Thailand national team at 8:00 PM on September 10, 2024, at My Dinh National Stadium.”
The upcoming friendly match between Vietnam and Thailand is highly anticipated, with both teams looking to test their squads ahead of future competitions. Vietnam Sports News will provide live updates and coverage of the match, ensuring that fans can follow the game as events unfold.
Coach Park Hang-seo’s message, combined with the tribute planned by the VFF, highlights the deep connection between football and the Vietnamese people, especially during times of hardship. As the nation continues to recover from the effects of Typhoon Yagi, both the football community and the country at large are coming together to support those affected.
