Suffering a serious injury in round 2 of V-League, Song Lam Nghe An midfielder has no return date yet
(Baonghean.vn) - Center back Ho Khac Luong suffered a torn cruciate ligament injury in the second round of V-League 2023/2024. It is likely that this player will have to rest for a long time.
In the 2023/24 season, after Song Lam Nghe An's defense lost many important pillars, Ho Khac Luong is considered one of the central defenders trusted by the Nghe An team's coaching staff. In the 3-5-2 formation built by coach Phan Nhu Thuat, Khac Luong and Mario are the two central defenders chosen to play in the official squad in the first two matches of the new season. Although his physique is not really ideal, Khac Luong is a player with a fierce playing style, good at tracking, always knowing how to choose the right position to defuse when the opponent puts pressure on the home team's field.
In the match of round 2 of V.League 2023/24, when Song Lam Nghe An faced the home team Hong Linh Ha Tinh, central defender Khac Luong was assigned the role of right central defender by coach Phan Nhu Thuat. With the ability to stick and be alert, Khac Luong made Phi Son and the strikers of Hong Linh Ha Tinh face many difficulties in finding space in front of Van Viet's goal.
However, in the 29th minute, from a not-so-fierce situation, Ho Khac Luong suffered a serious injury. Specifically, from an attack on the left wing of Hong Linh Ha Tinh, Phi Son received the ball, Ho Khac Luong approached from behind. The tackle of the Song Lam Nghe An center-back caused him to suffer an injury and then coach Phan Nhu Thuat was forced to make a substitution.
After the match, through the investigation of Nghe An Newspaper reporters, Khac Luong suffered a torn cruciate ligament injury in his knee. Currently, Song Lam Nghe An Club is sending X-ray images to a number of reputable hospitals to diagnose the severity of this injury.
Thus, it is likely that Khac Luong will have to stay away from the field for a long time. This will be a difficult problem for coach Phan Nhu Thuat, when the 2023/24 season has just begun.
According to football experts, a torn knee ligament is considered one of the most serious injuries. Many players have been unable to return to the field because they did not receive timely attention and treatment.
