The journey of 'Artificialization' of Hong Linh Ha Tinh

In the first two seasons of Ha Tinh's "registration" (2019 - 2020), the Nui Hong football team had an extremely small number of local players. The only face that grew up from the Ha Tinh football movement was Phan Ba ​​Hoang, a player who had to leave football for a while to work as a shipper.

However, in recent times, the number of players born and raised in the locality under the Hong Linh Ha Tinh team has increased significantly. Last season saw the appearance of central defender Truong Trong Sang and midfielder Tran Phi Son. These are two players who are highly regarded in terms of expertise and playing experience.

To prepare for this year's season, the Nui Hong football team continues to welcome more "children from far away". From goalkeeper Phan Dinh Vu Hai, midfielder Tran Phi Ha (Tran Phi Son's younger brother), to the 2017 Vietnam Golden Ball Dinh Thanh Trung, they have all gathered under the "army" of the talented coach Nguyen Thanh Cong.

With their talent and extensive battle experience, it is likely that most of the above faces will be highly appreciated by coach Nguyen Thanh Cong in the 2022 season. In particular, rookie Dinh Thanh Trung was trusted by the coaching staff and players of Hong Linh Ha Tinh to be given the captain's armband. A great honor for the midfielder born in 1988.

Currently, the Nui Hong football team is participating in the Professional Football Friendly Tournament - Hoa Lu Cup 2022, held at Ninh Binh Stadium. In the opening match, coach Nguyen Thanh Cong and his team defeated the home team Cong An Nhan Dan with a score of 2 - 1. The second goal scorer for Hong Linh Ha Tinh was Tran Phi Son, the player nicknamed "Vietnam's Ronaldo".

Seeing their fellow countrymen in the Nui Hong football team’s jersey dominating the Ninh Binh stadium, Ha Tinh football fans will surely be very happy and proud. Certainly, in the near future, the number of local players in the Hong Linh Ha Tinh team will be overwhelming./.
