Thus, central defender Pham The Nhat will be suspended for the next 5 matches in both V-League and National Cup with SLNA participating. In addition, according to research, the cost of surgery to fix the bridge of Le Trung Hieu's nose (Dak Lak) is about 15 million VND and Pham The Nhat is responsible for paying this cost.
Immediately after the incident, Coach Nguyen Duc Thang and General Director of SLNA Football Joint Stock Company Nguyen Hong Thanh, General Director Ho Van Chiem, as well as player The Nhat visited and encouraged midfielder Trung Hieu. The player who is playing for Dak Lak also expressed his sympathy for his colleague's lack of restraint.
While central defender Hoang Van Khanh is training with the Vietnam U23 team, The Nhat's absence for 5 matches will be a difficult problem for SLNA's coaching staff in the upcoming matches against Quang Nam, Than Quang Ninh, SHB Da Nang and B. Binh Duong.
