'Cow field' said Calisto

In a recent interview, Vietnam head coach Henrique Calisto has called football pitches of Vietnamese clubs 'cow field' for their poor quality. He also blamed Vietnamese clubs for misusing their money such as paying billions of VND to buy just one player but not improving necessary facilities.

My Dinh Stadium is the only stadium meeting requirements in Vietnam but it has never been used for V-League games. Other stadiums are in poor state and worse comparing to ones in China and Thailand. The Portuguese tactician believed the quality of football in Vietnam can improve by 25% if the pitches are better.
