Teammates Cong Phuong and Quang Hai, runners-up at U23 Asia, retire
Goalkeeper Dang Ngoc Tuan, a teammate of Cong Phuong and Quang Hai and a member of the Vietnam U23 team that won the runner-up position at the 2018 AFC U23 Championship, has decided to say goodbye to football at the age of 29.
With his football career no longer going smoothly after a torn knee ligament injury, goalkeeper Dang Ngoc Tuan decided to return to An Giang to teach at a football center in his hometown.
Dang Ngoc Tuan was born in 1995 in An Giang, and was one of the three goalkeepers of the Vietnam U23 team participating in the 2018 AFC U23 Championship along with Bui Tien Dung and Nguyen Van Hoang. However, compared to his two teammates of the same age, Ngoc Tuan's career was not as expected.
At SHB Da Nang, Dang Ngoc Tuan could not compete with Le Van Hung, Nguyen Thanh Binh or Phan Van Bieu for a position and had to accept the position of reserve goalkeeper of the team. After a time as a reserve at Da Nang Club, the goalkeeper born in 1995 proactively asked to play for An Giang Club on loan. In the 2020 season, Ngoc Tuan returned to Da Nang to compete for an official position. But during a training session with the Han River team, he tore his knee ligament. Since then, the goalkeeper from An Giang has not been able to regain his expected form.
