Philippines determined to hide cards, Coach Park Hang-seo received bad news

In this afternoon's training session, midfielder Do Hung Dung entered the field with slow steps. Afterwards, he could not go on the field to warm up with his teammates, but had to walk around the field with the doctor. According to information from the Vietnam team's coaching staff, Hung Dung suffered a muscle strain after the away win over the Philippines in the first leg of the AFF Cup 2018 semi-final.

It is still unclear whether Hung Dung will be able to recover in time for the return match at My Dinh Stadium on December 6. Without Hung Dung’s service, this will be a big loss for the Vietnamese team.

In addition to midfielder Hung Dung, coach Park Hang-seo will most likely not be able to use Van Toan in the upcoming match against the Philippines. In this afternoon's training session, the HAGL striker did not appear on the field with the Vietnamese team.

The training session of the Vietnam national team started at 4:30 p.m. Coach Park Hang-seo had the main players warm up separately with light physical exercises. Meanwhile, Van Quyet, Xuan Truong and the reserve players practiced getting used to the feel of the ball.

Phan Van Duc: From the white snow of Changzhou to the fiery My Dinh

(Baonghean.vn) - Not a genius striker like Anh Duc, not a classy free kicker like Quang Hai, nor a prodigy like Cong Phuong or Van Quyen, but Phan Van Duc possesses the rare qualities of a great player. With his own ability and desire, Phan Van Duc has conquered even the most difficult audiences.
