"Golden boy" meets bad luck

A few months ago, Van Quyen - the one-time "golden boy" of Nghe An football was called back to the national team after a long career.ng long time penalty. But after only a few days of training, the doctor discovered that he had osteochondritis dissecans of the ankle, which led to effusion. Quyen had to go to Singapore for surgery. Back at the club, in the process of recovering from the injury, Quyen slipped on the floor, broke his nose, and had to be treated in the hospital.

However, bad luck still did not let go of the "golden boy" when during the recent Lunar New Year, while burning incense at the family altar, Quyen slipped and fell and was stabbed in the leg by a piece of glass. He was taken to the hospital for treatment and stitches. However, on February 14, when he was re-examined, a piece of glass was still left in the wound, causing the leg to swell.

In 2010, also during Tet, Van Quyen had a motorbike accident and had to rest for several weeks. And that season, Van Quyen was rarely used, occasionally being put on the field from the bench.

These past few days, while his teammates were diligently practicing to prepare for the match against HP-HN on February 19, Van Quyen had to stay home to treat his injury.

When asked about Van Quyen's ability to return this season, coach Nguyen Huu Thang said that Van Quyen will be able to play at least until the end of the first phase of V.League-2011. However, according to the reporter's observation, even after recovering, Van Quyen will still have difficulty finding a starting position when foreign players K. Bryan, Ansah, Devon are performing very impressively. But what is more worrying is that the "golden boy" - the best striker of Vietnamese football at one time - may never regain his peak form.
