Scared to catch the "trend"

This time is the break for the clubs inV.LeaguetoU23 VietnamcompeteSea Games 31. That's why SLNA's coaching board has decided to "release the camp" for the players to return home to reunite with their families. This is an opportunity for the Nghe An strikers to "rekindle" their love with their loved ones.

After a busy series of days with a tight schedule of matches with the Vietnam national team and the club, star Phan Van Duc was able to gather with his family. This holiday was very special for the talented midfielder of the Vinh team. He could not go to famous tourist destinations with his wife and daughter like in previous years. Because Van Duc's wife had just given birth to a precious son for the player from Yen Thanh. The baby was given the lovely nickname Khoai Tay by the family.

During this precious free time, Duc Cot has shown himself to be a responsible husband and father when he helps his wife with housework. Cooking, holding the baby, and feeding the baby are all done quite skillfully by the midfielder born in 1996.

In order for his wife to rest and recover after the days of "giving birth", Duc "Cọt" had many nights without a full night's sleep. He replaced his wife in feeding Khoai Tay milk, rocking the baby to sleep, and talking to the baby when the baby wanted to "listen to the news". Star Phan Van Duc appeared to be quite proficient at those tasks. But he also shared with a proud face: "This is quite a difficult job for players like us, I think playing football is easier than cooking and feeding the baby. Luckily, I learned from experience during the time my wife gave birth to our first child. Therefore, you can't make it difficult for me".

Also in this series of "slow" days, to warm up the relationship, to show his love for his wife Nhat Linh, Duc "cot" also had a humorous "trend-catching" action. He posted a photo of his wife 10 years ago with a rather "silly" status: "Where are you hiding these days?". This "annoying" style of play quickly received the interest of the online community. However, his die-hard fans were worried. Because Linh immediately said "bitterly" and threatened: "Tonight it's more reasonable to sleep on the sofa, these days I'm busy loving someone else".

It is not known whether the talented midfielder was scared by the above joke or not. Because only a short time later, Nhat Linh's photo "evaporated" from Phan Van Duc's personal page. Perhaps the player from Yen Thanh "was afraid that his wife would let him sleep on the sofa" so he immediately deleted his wife's photo.

Phan Van Duc and Vo Nhat Linh got married in January 2020. Then in August, his family welcomed their first daughter, Dau Tay.

In the same situation as Phan Van Duc, new recruit Que Ngoc Hai of SLNA also cannot go on a trip, because his wife has just given birth to Hai Que's second little angel. The baby girl is named Kem.

The meaningful time off with his wife and children helped the steel center back of the Vietnam national team express his love for his other half. He shared emotional messages on the status bar when his wife gave birth to his second baby girl. "Hello Sunny's cool ice cream, the love slippers of mom and dad!". He also commented under Comment: "Thank you for everyone's good wishes! Currently, Sunny is quite excited and loves you, because the baby's name is completely decided by Sunny's ice cream preference. But let's see how long I can love you."

To make his wife happy, Hai Que also followed the "hot trend" of posting a photo of his wife from 10 years ago on his personal page. But in contrast to Phan Van Duc's situation, the new recruit of SLNA received support from his wife for his actions. Hai Que's wife also freely shared a photo of him when he had "lion hair".

Meaningful trips

Many other SLNA players choose famous domestic tourist destinations to "relax" with family and friends after exhausting days on the football field.

SLNA's central defender Pham The Nhat and his family had a trip to explore the central region with close friends Nguyen Manh and Khac Ngoc.

The group's first stop was the ancient capital of Hue. Here, the central defender wearing the number 2 jersey of the Nghe An football team traveled by cyclo with his family to feel the peace of this poetic land. The group also enjoyed Hue royal court music along the Perfume River. In addition, the trio of "xe, phao, ma" also enjoyed the wonderful culinary flavors of Hue, before continuing to Da Nang.

This joyful trip was enthusiastically shared by Pham The Nhat's wife, Truong Phuong Thao, on her personal page, along with a photo of her and her small family: "This is a cumbersome trip for my family." Pham The Nhat excitedly wrote: "43 forever at the top". When he arrived in the livable city of Da Nang.

Unlike his seniors who have already started a family, SLNA's prodigy, Dinh Xuan Tien, chose to return to his hometown to visit his parents and friends. This is a rare time for the U23 Southeast Asian champion to return to Nam Dan to eat his mother's cooking. Because this year is quite a busy year for this talented midfielder. His schedule is packed as he has just participated in the V.League, then the U23 Vietnam team participated in the U23 Southeast Asian tournament, then returned to play for U19 SLNA. So this break is really precious, helping him relieve all the pressure of the recent past.

Returning to his hometown, Xuan Tien also tried his hand at billiards. However, this player was not as formidable to his opponents as when he put on his shoes and went out on the field. Nguyen My - Dinh Xuan Tien's younger sister shared with the status line: "I told you. My brother is only good at footwork. He is not good at hands...". After that, he was also invited to participate in a football tournament organized by Nam Thanh commune. With the participation of Dinh Xuan Tien, it attracted the attention of a large number of hometown audiences, bringing appeal to this grassroots tournament.

Each SLNA player chooses a different way to rest. But in general, they all feel happy and comfortable after a long time of having to compete. This rare vacation for the players will be a meaningful treatment, helping them recharge their energy for the difficult matches ahead.
