Football player dies from Covid-19 infection

The football world was abuzz with the news that Iranian futsal player Elham Sheikhi passed away at the age of 23 due to Covid-19.

Footballer Elham Sheikhi was hospitalized in the epicenter of Qom on February 16 and after 10 days of treatment, she passed away in the hospital.

After Elham Sheikhi passed away, an emergency ban was imposed on all sports activities in Iran, and the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) decided to postpone four AFC Champions League matches taking place in Iran.

Asian Football Confederation considers postponing Malaysia-Vietnam match

The AFC said that early next week it will hold an emergency meeting with representatives of national football federations to assess the impact of the Covid-19 epidemic on the plan to organize football matches in the region, and at the same time coordinate closely with FIFA before making an official decision on the 2022 World Cup qualifying matches in March 2020, including the Malaysia - Vietnam match.

For now, the AFC has also decided to postpone six matches in the third round of the AFC Champions League in the East and West Asia regions.

As for the Vietnamese team, all preparations for the match against Malaysia are still going ahead as planned. Coach Park and his team will gather again on March 21 in Binh Duong, on March 26 play a friendly match with the Kyrgyzstan team at Binh Duong Stadium and then go to Kuala Lumpur if the match schedule remains unchanged.

Cong Phuong revived thanks to Mr. Duc

Cong Phuong is gradually reviving at his new team, Ho Chi Minh City, after a long time abroad. To have this revival, Cong Phuong certainly needs to thank Mr. Duc when the owner of the mountain town team made the most reasonable decision for the striker of the Vietnamese national team after previous mistakes.

If Mr. Duc is conservative and forces Cong Phuong to continue his hopeless "study abroad" in Belgium, perhaps the striker from Nghe An will have difficulty returning to Vietnam to play football in an environment more suitable to his abilities.

And if the owner of the mountain town team does not "play fair" and let Cong Phuong leave HAGL for half a season, I'm afraid that the main striker of the Vietnamese team will find it difficult to fly high in a new, more ambitious and bloodthirsty environment like at the HCMC Club.

Liverpool may not win the Premier League because of Covid-19

If the Premier League has to end early due to the impact of the Covid-19 epidemic, the Anfield team may not be able to lift the championship trophy.

According to the Telegraph, there is no guarantee that Liverpool can be awarded the Premier League title if the remaining matches of the tournament are stopped or canceled due to the impact of Covid-19. In addition, the 3 teams at the bottom of the rankings are not sure to be relegated to the First Division. The organizing committee is also unclear about the solution for the European Cup spots.

There are 11 rounds left in the Premier League this season. Liverpool only need 4 more wins to officially win the first Premier League title in the club's history. They are currently 22 points behind second-placed Man City.

Quang Hai is at risk of missing out on an appointment with Cong Phuong.

The reigning V-League champions Hanoi have arrived at Thong Nhat Stadium to prepare for their away match against runner-up Ho Chi Minh City.

This match promises to be very exciting and tense. This is the opening Super Cup match of the new season that had to be postponed from February 7th until January 3rd in a stadium without selling tickets to spectators.

The Super Cup organizers have made a full plan to prevent the Covid-19 epidemic, have live television and have to limit the number of spectators to the stadium with the possibility of only allowing 100 fans from each team to cheer scattered in the stands. The attraction of the match comes from the players wearing the national team jersey. Unfortunately, Quang Hai may miss the appointment with the host's rookie Cong Phuong due to injury.

The National Super Cup will take place at 4:30 p.m. on March 1. The winning team will receive a prize of 300 million VND and the losing team will receive a prize of 200 million VND. The prize of 10 million VND will be awarded to the player who scores the first goal and the best player of the match will also receive 10 million VND.
