Doan Van Hau's one-day menu in Europe

Not long ago, when interviewed by Bongdaplus, Coach Hoang Anh Tuan affirmed that although he did not play for Heerenveen's first team as much as expected,Doan Van Hauhas also been exposed to many aspects that Vietnam has not been able to access. One of them is nutrition.

Accordingly, instead of just eating enough to be full, Van Hau learned how to eat scientifically from the doctor and nutritionist of Heerenveen. Talking to the press, his breakfast includes bread with butter, fruit, boiled eggs (usually Hau eats 4 eggs/meal). It is known that Van Hau makes his own menu for breakfast and dinner. For lunch, he eats with other players at the club with dishes prepared by the team chef.

Van Hau said that one of his favorite dishes is chicken breast. Because this dish helps maintain and increase muscle mass. It is worth noting that there are many ways to prepare chicken breast to help players not get bored. Because of that, Van Hau's body (combined with scientific training) has changed. From a player who was considered skinny and lacking muscle mass compared to the average European player, Van Hau has reached the standard.

TimeCovid-19, how do Vietnamese players live?

The debate over whether to end or end the season continues even as the pandemic is gradually being brought under control. The champions want to maintain the playing field. Teams at risk of relegation see the pandemic as the perfect excuse to retreat safely. However, players, whether in the top or bottom, still want football to go on.

In Khanh Hoa, players' salaries have been cut and ironically they are facing an uncertain future.

At the beginning of the tournament, when they heard that the sponsor wanted to withdraw, even though the salary was slow and the bonus was unclear, they still gritted their teeth and competed with the hope that their achievements would change the future. Until now, Sanna.KH still has to live in anxiety.

First Division players, who are already on low wages, have had their salaries cut. What they want most right now is for the tournament to take place so that their modest salaries and signing-on bonuses can be maintained in order to support their families.

Football has changed many people’s lives, but that’s not all. Many young players in Nam Dinh, Nghe An, Dong Thap, and even HAGL receive modest salaries. If football doesn’t take place, or the tournament is canceled, that meager income will continue to be cut.

A club president argued that if the tournament was canceled, his team would save on signing-on fees, salaries, and other expenses for players. The team would thus have less burden.

Remember, a president lives on the salary from the owner, whether the tournament takes place or not does not affect his income. However, the players and their families depend on the tournament.

They want to get paid, they want signing-on money and bonuses for every match. And not every player gets offers to advertise on their personal page. They make a living from football. They have only one source of income from football.

They have traded their youth for this playground with the hope of changing their lives. The team and the owners may be having difficulties, but instead of choosing the safest and easiest solution for themselves, they should think about balancing their relationships and doing it for those who have placed their trust in them.
