Phan Van Duc follows Bui Tien Dung in leaving the Vietnam National Team; The Red Devils leave the Champions League

Hoang Duc has a slight injury, Duc Huy is called up to join the Vietnam National Team

With the Vietnamese national team depleted due to injuries and the Covid-19 pandemic, coach Park Hang-seo has had to continuously call up additional players. Most recently, midfielder Pham Duc Huy was called up to join the Vietnamese national team.

Duc Huy is a familiar player on the Vietnam National Team.

On the first day of the Vietnam national team's training session on the evening of March 14, two players also asked permission to leave the team due to injuries, Phan Van Duc and Bui Tien Dung. Coach Park Hang-seo continued to have to add new personnel. Specifically, Dao Van Nam and Pham Duc Huy were summoned.

If Van Nam is a rather unfamiliar name, Duc Huy is a familiar player on the Vietnam national team under Mr. Park. He played very well at the 2018 AFC U23 Championship, 2018 ASIAD and 2018 AFF Cup. In the first leg of the 2018 AFF Cup final, Duc Huy scored a beautiful goal with a long shot from outside the penalty area.

Like Bui Tien Dung, Phan Van Duc joined the Vietnam national team on the evening of March 14. However, after discussing his current injury with coach Park Hang-seo, the 1996-born midfielder was allowed by the Korean coach to return home to recover. He will not be able to join the Vietnam national team in the remaining two matches in the third qualifying round of the 2022 World Cup against Oman and Japan.

According to the doctors, Van Duc suffered a torn thigh muscle. The 26-year-old midfielder suffered an injury and had to leave the field early in the match between Saigon and SLNA in round 4 of V.League 2022 on March 13. He needs at least 4-6 weeks to be able to practice again.

Salah ready to train, prepare for Arsenal vs Liverpool match

Coach Juergen Klopp confirmed that striker Mohamed Salah has returned to training and is ready to play in the Arsenal vs Liverpool match when the two clubs play round 27 of the 2021/22 Premier League on March 17.

Remember, after scoring the second goal for Liverpool in the away match against Brighton (round 29 of the 2021/22 Premier League) last weekend, Salah had to leave the field halfway due to injury. The Egyptian star went straight down the tunnel after being substituted.

At the end of the match, Liverpool manager Juergen Klopp confirmed that Salah had suffered a foot injury. But now, Salah's situation is better: "It seems that Salah is stronger than we thought. We were quite lucky that Salah did not have a big problem."

Let's recreate the great atmosphere we saw in our last home game, and keep the Champions League dream alive. We are Man United! Let's do it together! Go Red Devils!".
