This decision was shared by Van Quyet with head coach Kim Sang Sik and his teammates in the locker room after the match. He mentioned that although he still has a strong desire to contribute to the national team, his current physical condition does not allow him to compete at the high intensity required at the national level. He believes the team needs to provide more opportunities for the younger generation of players.

Van Quyet is one of the players who has dedicated many years to the national teams, leaving a significant mark in their colors. Throughout his international career, this two-time Golden Ball winner has scored many important goals and is one of the veteran players of the team.
