Striker Nguyen Cong Phuongended his goal drought with a goal to help Binh Phuoc win against Ba Ria Vung Tau.
Looking forward to the 2024/25 National First Division which will kick off at the end of October, Binh Phuoc Club had a friendly match with Ba Ria Vung Tau Club. This was also Nguyen Cong Phuong's first match in the new club's shirt. Nearly half a month ago, he said goodbye to Yokohama FC after 2 years of only playing 3 matches, before returning home to look for more opportunities to play and score goals.
Cong Phuong’s hope was partly answered. When coach Nguyen Anh Duc placed him in the starting lineup, the striker born in 1995 played with great effort. He actively moved, coordinated with his teammates and scored a goal of his own to help Binh Phuoc win 2-1.
It should be added that this is the first time in 13 months that Cong Phuong has scored. In September 2023, this striker scored in the 2-0 victory of the Vietnam national team against Palestine. That was also the last time Cong Phuong wore the Vietnam national team shirt until now.

MU's "waste" shines in Champions League
On social media, MU fans have criticized the Board of Directors and Coach Ten Hag for selling talented left-back Alvaro Fernandez - who is playing outstandingly for Benfica in the 2024/25 Champions League.
Alvaro Fernandez featured for Benfica as they beat Atletico Madrid 4-0. In just his second appearance in the competition, the left-back was one of the team's best players. He was widely considered the best player of the match.
Fernandez joined United's academy as a 16-year-old from Real Madrid but, despite shining for the U23s, never made his first-team debut. After a loan spell last season, Fernandez joined Benfica on a permanent deal for just £5m.
