Cong Phuong faces difficulties in Belgium; Van Lam gets the highest score on the team
(Baonghean.vn) - Muangthong United's 8-match unbeaten streak was broken after a 0-2 loss to Port FC in round 23 of the 2019 Thai League. But goalkeeper Dang Van Lam still received the highest score on the Muangthong United team.
Cong Phuong has competitors
Cong Phuong will have a hard time finding a chance to play in the near future when Colidio joins the club. Currently, the Vietnamese striker has not been trusted by coach Marc Brys. He has only played 20 minutes for STVV since the beginning of the season.
Last weekend, the number 15 of the "Canaries" was not included in the Belgian coach's list to play against Standard Liege in the third round of the Belgian national championship. This was a match in which the home team won with a score of 2-1, this result may not be beneficial for Cong Phuong in the near future.

"The team will change personnel if the performance does not improve. When STVV lost the first two matches, I think coach Brys will consider choosing Cong Phuong to refresh the attack. However, the victory against Standard Liege turned everything upside down," said journalist Elst.
Van Lam received the highest score in the match.
Despite conceding two goals, Vietnam goalkeeper Dang Van Lam was still given a score of 6 by Siam Sports (Thailand), higher than all other Muangthong United players. The player with the lowest score was Thai midfielder Sarach Yooyen with 4.5 points.
The player who received the title of "Best Player of the Match" was 25-year-old midfielder Tanaboon Kesarat (Port FC) with 7.5 points received from the votes of Thai football experts.

In an interview with the press after the match, coach Alexandre Gama (Muangthong United) also affirmed that his players played hard and tried their best but could not get the desired results due to a lack of... luck.
Coutinho's future remains unclear.
The Brazilian midfielder is having a difficult time at Barcelona and has attracted the attention of many teams. The latest name to join the race for Coutinho's signature is Bayern Munich.
Of course, Barca has not yet determined to sell Coutinho. In fact, coach Ernesto Valverde still has plans for this expensive contract in the 2019/20 season. In fact, Bayern's interest comes from the invitation of Coutinho's agent.
However, Bayern have not made any offer to Camp Nou and the two sides have not entered into negotiations. As for Barca and Coutinho, the possibility of the two sides parting ways is still quite high because they cannot find common ground on the pitch.

The Brazilian midfielder's biggest wish was to return to Liverpool but it did not happen. Therefore, the most practical goal for Coutinho now is to find a new destination that is financially secure and still has the opportunity to conquer major titles. Bundesliga and Serie A are the ideal destinations.
As for Barca, the Catalan team is willing to let Coutinho go to have the conditions to recruit Neymar. It is not even possible that Barca will include Coutinho as part of the contract to bring "little Pele" back.
