Today, April 3rd, SLNA goalkeeper Nguyen Manh will officially tie the knot with his bride Phuong Chi. This is also an occasion for a reunion of many top Vietnamese football players.

For the past week, wedding photos of goalkeeper Nguyen Manh have been leaked on social media, much to the silence of the SLNA captain. All information regarding the wedding was kept secret, known only to members of the wedding organizing committee. But yesterday, the Vietnamese national team players were among the first to receive "invitation cards on the table, with clear time and location" for a "celebration in the village"... On the invitation card, the date was April 3rd, 2016, and the location was Nghe An...

Nguyen Manh is a very private person when it comes to his love life and rarely posts photos of himself on social media. As a famous and reputable figure in the football world, and especially with no anti-fans, Nguyen Manh is naturally considered a "heartthrob" by many female fans. However, this young man from Do Luong is remarkably loyal to his relationship, which has lasted for six years.

Nguyen Manh's fiancée is Phuong Chi – a gentle, demure woman and the daughter of a famous family in Vinh City known for its eel dishes. Their love blossomed when neither of them had anything; he was a young football player, she was a student. But after six years, everything has changed. Nguyen Manh is now the captain of SLNA after signing the highest-value contract the Nghe An team has ever signed with a domestic player, and is the number one goalkeeper for the Vietnamese national team. Phuong Chi has also graduated and has a stable job.

Bride Phuong Chi possesses a gentle and kind beauty.

There's a funny anecdote that goes like this: when Nguyen Manh's contract with SLNA was about to expire, a number of wealthy and ambitious clubs tried to approach him and negotiate a contract. However, the young man from Do Luong shook his head and refused. Nguyen Manh explained that he still had strong feelings for SLNA, but that was only half the answer. A close friend said: "Manh stayed at SLNA because of his loyalty to SLNA and his affection for Phuong Chi."

"When we become one family. Closing our eyes together in the same bed. Sometimes dreaming the same dream. Waking up at the same time. When we walk the same path. Sharing the same joy. Shedding the same tears. Living together for a lifetime...", the lyrics of the song "One Family" resonated from Nguyen Manh's phone – a man living the most beautiful and happiest days of his life...

These photos capture the 6th anniversary of Nguyen Manh and his bride, Phuong Chi.
