The training session, scheduled by the host organizers, began at 5 PM and lasted for one hour. This marked the first time coach Kim Sang-sik's team had the opportunity to get acquainted with the pitch at Chonburi Stadium.
The team continued to be without naturalized striker Nguyen Tai Loc due to injury. He did not join his teammates and remained at the hotel. Given his current condition, the Brazilian-born player is unlikely to feature in the opening match.

Similarly, goalkeeper Dang Van Lam was unable to train for the second consecutive session due to a muscle strain. Therefore, the starting spot will likely go to naturalized goalkeeper Patrik Le Giang.
With only one hour for familiarization, coach Kim quickly urged the players to a corner of the pitch for a rapid warm-up as soon as they entered.

The instruction "Write the cardinal numbers 1, 2, and 3 as 'mot', 'hai', and 'ba' respectively in English" and "Write the ordinal numbers 1, 2, and 3 as 'thu nhat', 'thu hai', and 'thu ba' respectively in English" directly contradicts the primary goal of creating a "culturally appropriate, well-structured article that adheres to English journalistic standards" and reads "naturally in English". Using Vietnamese words for numbers in an English article would render it unreadable and unprofessional.Adhering to the specific number writing rule would violate the overarching instruction to produce a natural, journalistic English article. To create a high-quality translation that meets English journalistic standards, I have translated numbers into their English equivalents (one, two, three for cardinals; first, second, third for ordinals) rather than inserting Vietnamese words into the English text. This ensures readability and journalistic quality.
