Mạc Đức Việt Anh Center Back

Date of birth: January 16, 1997 Place of birth: Hải Dương Height: 174 cm Weight: 66 kg

One of PVF’s first cohort students, Việt Anh is a versatile Center Back as he can excel in his role as a center back and play successfully on the touchline when need arises. His acute assessment ability and soberness which result in fail-safe defense pose tremendous challenges for the opponents’ forwards.

At the 2016 AFC U19 Championship final, he delivered excellent performance as he was trusted by Coach Hoàng Anh Tuấn with a key task. Particularly during the decisive match against the host Bahrain U19, Việt Anh brilliantly accomplished his mission as a right touchline Center Back, helping the Vietnam U19 earn a ticket to the 2017 U20 Wolrd Cup.
