What to expect from the Vietnam National Team's attack?
(Baonghean.vn) - When striker pair Tien Linh and Van Toan have both been infected with Covid-19, it is likely that coach Park Hang-seo will combine "Vietnamese Ronaldo - Messi" to refresh the Vietnamese national team's attack.
On the afternoon of January 13, the Vietnamese players gathered in Hanoi to prepare for the next matches in the third qualifying round of the 2022 World Cup (against Australia on January 27 and China on February 1). However, the number of Vietnamese players when gathering on January 13 was only 27/30 players on the list.Coach Park Hang-seopreviously announced.
The three players who are absent and unable to gather are Nguyen Hoang Duc, Nguyen Van Toan and Nguyen Tien Linh. The above players have just been found positive for Covid-19 during the time the Vietnam national team "disengaged" after the AFF Cup 2021. All three are currently in stable health, showing no symptoms of infection but still have to be quarantined according to regulations. Hoang Duc alone has had two rapid tests with negative results.

Due to the lack of personnel, Coach Park Hang-seo was forced to urgently call up two additional names: Ngan Van Dai (Quang Nam Club) and midfielder Tran Phi Son (Hong Linh Ha Tinh Club). Both received the consent of their home clubs and gathered with the whole team on the afternoon of January 14.
Notably, Phi Son, also known as “Vietnam’s Ronaldo”, is a player who has returned to the national team after a long time. His return has made many fans look forward to it.
Phi Son has the ability to accelerate, dribble the ball and take accurate free kicks. The player currently playing for Hong Linh Ha Tinh Club also has emotional celebrations similar to Cristiano Ronaldo.

There is also a player on the national team who is nicknamed after another world superstar, Cong Phuong. The striker of the Vietnam national team is often known by the nickname “Vietnamese Messi”, because he also has extremely skillful and skillful moves.
With the appearance of Phi Son, Coach Park Hang-seo will have more options for the Vietnamese national team's attack and who knows, the scenario of "Ronaldo - Messi Vietnam" will appear in the upcoming matches. This is not only an interesting combination but also feasible, because Coach Park wants to renew the team after the failure at the AFF Cup 2020.
This duo played together in the HCM City Club shirt in the 2020 season. At that time, Cong Phuong played for HCM City on loan.
If he performs well in training sessions, Phi Son is completely capable of being given a chance by Coach Park. Ahead of the Vietnam National Team are two important matches with Australia (January 27) and China (February 1) in the second leg of Group B of the 3rd qualifying round of the 2022 World Cup in Asia.
