On Jun 16, AFF President Khiev Sameth sent a congratulatory letter to VFF President Le Khanh Hai to congratulate Vietnam National team. In the letter, he wrote:
“On behalf of the Council of the Asean Football Federation (AFF), it gives me great pleasure to congratulate you and your national team for qualifying for the AFC Asian Cup China 2023 Finals and the final round of the FIFA World Cup Asean Qualifiers.
This achievement is remarkable because of the ongoing pandemic which has severely impacted our football operations including the preparations of our teams and Vietnam Football Federation (VFF) has demonstrated its resilience as well as character during these challenging times. This achievement is also special as this is the first time that Vietnam has progressed to the third round of Asian Qualifiers for the FIFA World Cup which is a testament to the ascendancy of Vietnamese football in recent years.
It leaves me now to wish you and your national team continued success in the AFC Asian Cup China 2023 Finals and the final round of the FIFA World Cup Asian Qualifiers”.
