Cong Phuong did not play, Sint-Truidense lost "convincingly"

After 1 round of not being registered, Coach Brys of Sint-Truidense (STVV) put Cong Phuong's name on the list of players in round 4 of the Belgian National Championship in the match

STVV visited Antwerp. However, the Vietnamese player only started the match on the bench.

Although STVV had more possession of the ball, against the home team Antwerp with a well-balanced squad, Cong Phuong's team could not make much of an impression.

In the 55th minute, an STVV defender fouled a home player in the penalty area and Mbokani stepped up to accurately take the penalty, raising the score to 2-0.

Thus, STVV lost 3 out of the first 4 matches of this season and Cong Phuong only appeared once.

In the next match on August 25, STVV will face Zulte-Waregem at home.

This is one of the most successful teams in Belgian football in the European arena and to be able to play, Cong Phuong will have to try very hard in the next week of training.

Attacking and defending, Chelsea were held to a draw by Leicester at Stamford Bridge

Welcoming Leicester in the second round of the Premier League, Chelsea entered the match full of excitement. Coach Frank Lampard's students quickly attacked and only needed 7 minutes to find the opening goal at Stamford Bridge.

The early goal helped Chelsea get excited, play flexibly and continuously create chances in front of Leicester's goal. However, Mason Mount, N'Golo Kante or Olivier Giroud could not score to double the gap.

While the strikers were still busy looking for a goal, Chelsea unexpectedly conceded a goal from a corner kick. In the 67th minute, Wilfred Ndidi jumped high to head the ball to equalize 1-1 for Leicester and make up for the mistake that led to the loss at the beginning of the match.

Meanwhile, Chelsea looked confused. Coach Frank Lampard's adjustments did not work and The Blues had to accept a 1-1 draw in their first home match at Stamford Bridge this season.

Dropping 2 points against Leicester, Chelsea extended their disappointing streak after 2 bitter defeats against MU and Liverpool while coach Frank Lampard still has not been able to have his first victory in official matches with The Blues./.

Balotelli turned down a mountain of money to join a newly promoted team in Italy

Instead of going to play football at Flamengo, Mario Balotelli chose to join Brescia Club in his home country of Italy in the hope of one day being called up to the national team.

This is a somewhat surprising move for "Super Mario". Previously, he was said to have reached an agreement to move to Brazilian club Flamengo. This team is willing to meet Balotelli's salary demands, determined by The Sun to be around £108,000 per week.

The 29-year-old striker also has a trophy collection that many players dream of. He won the Italian championship three times, won the Champions League with Inter Milan and won the Premier League with Man City in 2012.

Balotelli has only played 36 times for Italy. Nearly a year has passed since the striker last wore the blue shirt. Balotelli's best achievement with the national team was finishing second at Euro 2012.

To Van Vu was oppressed or blocked his way to the national team?

Midfielder To Van Vu has affirmed his role in B. Binh Duong and that is a continuous effort. However, recently this potential player has had reactions that may block his dream of being selected for the national team.

To Van Vu has been in very good form since last year when he won the National Cup with B. Binh Duong and this year he played in the V-League and AFC Cup with many beautiful and important goals.

Before the Vietnam team participated in the King's Cup, midfielder B. Binh Duong had high hopes of being called up by coach Park Hang-seo but in the end, his name was not included. Immediately, Vu wrote on social media to express his injustice with the hidden meaning: "First is relationship, second is money; Realize - Life is just like that".

If the first time, Vu was upset with the status on social networks and was still impulsive, this time Vu may have closed the door to his team. Especially someone like Coach Park Hang-seo is more careful with choosing players who have a good impact on the team rather than being impulsive with mistakes that the team has to suffer.
