Center back Que Ngoc Hai suddenly gave bad news to coach Troussier
Center back Que Ngoc Hai left open the possibility of recovering from injury in time and possibly joining the Vietnam national team to prepare for the 2023 Asian Cup.
“My legs still can’t run. With this condition, I don’t know if I can join the Vietnam national team in the upcoming training session,” Que Ngoc Hai shared on the afternoon of December 24. Currently, the captain of the Vietnam national team is in Hanoi for an X-ray. After the X-ray results are available, he will ask doctor Kim Kwang Jae of Viettel The Cong Club for advice and to come up with a treatment plan for the coming time.
Previously, Que Ngoc Hai unfortunately suffered an injury during a training session before the match against Nam Dinh in round 6 of V.League 2023/24. After an MRI scan, doctors diagnosed that the former SLNA player had a torn hamstring. However, fortunately, the tear was not too serious. It is expected that Que Ngoc Hai will only have to rest for 2 weeks.
In fact, in recent days, Que Ngoc Hai has also started to practice rehabilitation at the Center of Vietnam National Team Doctor Tran Huy Tho. However, according to the latest sharing, the 30-year-old central defender said that he does not feel positive signs from his current injury. "I am so unlucky. If I do not recover in time to attend the Asian Cup, it will be a real pity," Ngoc Hai sadly shared.
Que Ngoc Hai's decision to leave open the possibility of participating in the Asian Cup is not really what coach Philippe Troussier expected. The 30-year-old central defender is considered the leader and number 1 important pillar in the defense of the current Vietnam national team. According to the plan on December 25, coach Troussier will announce the list of players to gather for the Vietnam national team to prepare for the 2023 Asian Cup./.
