Van Quyen's cousin replaces Cong Phuong in the Vietnam national team

After a training session, Cong Phuong returned to the Vietnam U23 team, while striker Ho Tuan Tai was promoted to practice with the national team this morning, May 8.

According to PV's private source, in addition to Tuan Tai, the group mobilized for the training session this morning, May 8, also included striker Phuc Tinh and center back Hoang Lam. These are three players who were called up to the Vietnam Olympic team to prepare for the U23 Asian qualifiers but had to pack their bags and return to their clubs at the last minute due to injuries.

During yesterday's training session on May 7, Cong Phuong, Huy Toan, Phi Son and Minh Tung were brought up by coach Toshiya Miura to train with the national team. After a training session, the four players returned to the U23 team - which is also preparing for the SEA Games.

Coach Miura gave Ho Tuan Tai the opportunity to prove himself in the national team.

To have the best squad for the match against Thailand in the second qualifying round of the 2018 World Cup, Coach Miura decided to promote about six to 10 players from the U23 Vietnam team to the national team. These players will be rotated by the Japanese strategist to practice with their seniors.

Today, the Vietnamese team will no longer be short of players in practice because yesterday afternoon Cong Vinh, Trong Hoang, Xuan Thanh and Michal Nguyen were present at the team's headquarters. These four players were allowed to join the team late by coach Miura because they were busy with Binh Duong in the final match of the AFC Champions League group stage on the evening of May 7.

Coach Miura was forced to remove Thanh Luong from the list of players who will go to Thailand to play in the opening match of the second qualifying round of the 2018 World Cup because the midfielder of Hanoi T&T has not recovered from a groin injury he suffered while playing in the V-League. The strategist born in 1963 immediately called up Quang Hai, a veteran of the Vietnam national team, who is currently playing well in the national championship with Quang Ninh Club.
