Timor Leste's 3-1 victory over Singapore in the second round of men's football Group A at the SEA Games has significantly improved Vietnam's chances of advancing.
Vice-captain Nguyen Dinh Bac nearly missed the SEA Games 33 opening match but made a timely appearance and shone, helping Vietnam secure a victory against Laos on the afternoon of 3/12.
The team is currently in an intensive training phase at the National Sports Training Center, focusing on improving speed and endurance in preparation for SEA Games 33.
Exactly one year after his retirement, former world number one Rafael Nadal returned to the training court to directly coach world number 50 female tennis player Alexandra Eala.
