Pressure from celebrity name
In the Con Cuong Children's team, there is a player number 2 who shares the same surname and name as the former national football player Pham Van Quyen. In the 4th minute of the match, this player had a beautiful play to open the score for the Muong Qua team. In the stands, this player's name was constantly called. Many spectators exclaimed "Oh, Pham Van Quyen".
Many people commented that at that time, the boy's parents must have admired "fat" Quyen so much that they named their son after this player.
This player said that he really likes this name but also faces a lot of pressure when carrying the name of a "celebrity". Therefore, he always tries his best to play, to give his best to the audience to give them a good, attractive match, worthy of the expectations of the fans and the name of this "famous person".

In the match against the successful Nhi Dong Tan Ky team, Hung Nguyen's young players made an admirable effort. However, the difference in the game did not bring Hung Nguyen players any goals while they conceded 3 goals.
In an inaccurate catch, goalkeeper Cao Dang Vu (16) of Hung Nguyen Children's School let the ball into the net. With a tall, big body (weighing 48kg), this goalkeeper looked very "formidable" but in a moment of "misstep" made the audience disappointedly exclaim: "So tall but as light as a potato".
After that extreme comment, the goalkeeper promptly corrected himself and did not give the opposing team a chance to score another goal.
No respect for neighbors!
Con Cuong and Tuong Duong are two neighboring football teams along Highway 7. Coming down from the mountains to the city in solidarity, hand in hand, before facing each other on the field, the two teams had a happy reunion in Vinh city.
