Hanoi FC defender Do Duy Manh has expressed optimism as his club prepares for the second leg of the AFC Cup 2019 inter-zonal final against North Korea’s April 25.
“We all know anything can happen in football. Solidarity is our strength. I’m confident my team will achieve our goal”, Duy Manh told AFC on Sunday.
Hanoi tied 2-2 with April 25 in the first leg last week.
“We should stay 100% focused. The upcoming match will be tough because we have to play away and face disadvantages like a turf field and harsh weather. April 25 are physically strong and disciplined. But we will overcome all the challenges,” Manh said.
The second leg final will kick off at 3pm on Tuesday.
