This morning, July 10, while the team was resting and relaxing at the hotel, Ho Tuan Tai was checked on his recovery progress by coach Martin Forkel and two medical experts, Nguyen Trong Thuy and Pablo Sawicki. To have this check-up, the U22 Vietnam striker has received special care throughout the past time.

By this afternoon, he was able to return to normal training with U22 Vietnam like his teammates, even training enthusiastically. After nearly 3 weeks of treatment, Ho Tuan Tai said that his medial ligament injury had completely recovered. He said: “My injury has healed very well, I feel the recovery rate is about 90%. There is still a lot of time to prepare for the SEA Games, I will try my best to be in the best shape when I return.”

Tuan Tai added that to ensure he avoids a relapse in the beginning, he will have to gradually integrate into the team and needs to avoid strong collisions.

This is really good news for coach Nguyen Huu Thang. With the return of this striker, the Nghe An coach will have more options in attack. Compared to his "juniors" Thanh Binh and Ha Duc Chinh, Cong Phuong and Tuan Tai are the players with more experience./.
