5 players were arrested, Ha Tinh Club had to use U17 players as replacements in a force crisis
Hong Linh Ha Tinh Club had to register U17 players into the squad in a force crisis due to the arrest of 5 players who organized drug use.
Hong Linh Ha Tinh Club has just announced the addition of goalkeeper Nguyen Trong Duong to the list of participants in V.League 2023-2024 at the time the season is about to end.
Nguyen Trong Duong is a player of Vietnam U17 team. He was called up to prepare for the 2023 AFC U17 finals. However, coach Hoang Anh Tuan did not include Trong Duong in the final list.
Trong Duong was born in 2006 in Ky Anh district, Ha Tinh, and grew up in the training center of this football team.
Currently, Hong Linh Ha Tinh Club only has 2 goalkeepers on the roster, Nguyen Thanh Tung and Duong Tung Lam. Previously, goalkeeper Duong Quang Tuan was prosecuted and detained for organizing illegal drug use.
On May 4, police inspected rooms 501 and 502 at the BM Hotel in Ha Tinh City. At that time, the police discovered 10 people illegally using drugs.
Among them are 5 players of Hong Linh Ha Tinh team: Dinh Thanh Trung (born 1988), Nguyen Ngoc Thang (born 2002), Duong Quang Tuan (born 1996), Nguyen Trung Hoc (born 1998), Nguyen Van Truong (born 2003).
According to the V.League 2023/2024 regulations, a team can register an additional goalkeeper outside the transfer window if one of the three officially registered goalkeepers cannot play for the rest of the season.
Previously, Dong A Thanh Hoa Club just added Nguyen Thanh Thang when goalkeeper Nguyen Thanh Diep was out for the rest of the season due to a torn anterior cruciate ligament.
After this incident, Hong Linh Ha Tinh Club tried hard to win 1 point in 2 matches against Binh Dinh Club and Hanoi FC. However, the Central representative encountered many psychological problems. From a professional perspective, coach Nguyen Thanh Cong had to try to cope with a thin force that was devastated by injuries and penalty cards.
In round 19 of V.League, Hong Linh Ha Tinh Club will host Ho Chi Minh City Club at home. If they can win against the away team, coach Nguyen Thanh Cong and his team will move closer to their goal of staying in the league./.
