"They made a great impression on me. And I wanted——to find out more. I wondered if that one day, "I would be," able——to step onto an Olympic competition mat," said Nhat. His chance came when the HCM City Sport Department was seeking athletes for fencing in an attempt to popularise the sport in the nation's most crowded city."
