"Vietnam PSG" - Binh Dinh has no chance to compete for the 2023 V.League championship
Binh Dinh no longer has a chance to compete for the 2023 V.League championship. The most practical goal of coach Nguyen Duc Thang and his team is probably to focus on the National Cup, a tournament in which they participated in the semi-finals with their opponent Viettel.
Coach Duc Thang's team is showing signs of decline after losing the first 3 matches of the second phase. Currently, the team from the land of Vo has 19 points, ranked 8th on the rankings. With a gap of 9 points compared to the leading group, the chance for Binh Dinh to enter the Top 3 like last season is almost impossible. This is clearly not the result that Binh Dinh expected.
17-year-old talent Cong Phuong wants to be in the main squad of U23 Vietnam
Young talent born in 2006 - Nguyen Cong Phuong is trying hard every day with the goal of being included in the U23 Vietnam team to continue to develop and mature.
Known as one of the youngest players on the list of the Vietnam U23 team in this training session, Cong Phuong has received high praise for his physique, fitness, skills and football mindset. In addition, Cong Phuong has the advantage of being a student of coach Hoang Anh Tuan from the training session in Germany until participating in the 2023 AFC U17 Championship. This has helped Cong Phuong not encounter many difficulties in getting into the rhythm of the training program at the Vietnam U23 team.

MU defends like "sleepwalking" & Ten Hag's anger
MU suffered a 2-3 defeat against Dortmund in a friendly match on the morning of July 31, with the highlight being the disastrous performance of the defense. It may not seem serious, but if they continue to show such a "dreamy" face, it will be difficult for the Red Devils to dream of titles in the 2023/24 season.
After witnessing MU's reverse defeat to Dortmund, Ten Hag could not hide his anger. He said: "Everything was terrible, a poor performance. The players did not follow any principles, did not press, did not coordinate or attack. There were simply 11 individuals on the pitch. That is not us. The whole team must take control, play responsibly with the ball. Such goals cannot happen and cannot be forgiven, even if it is just a friendly match."
