Considered on the levelV.LeagueCurrently, Ho Tuan Tai is in the group of the best domestic strikers. From talent to experience, the player from Hung Nguyen is not inferior to Nguyen Tien Linh, Nguyen Cong Phuong and Ha Duc Chinh - 3 strikers who are often chosen by the team.Coach Park Hang-seorecently called up to the Vietnam National Team, alongside veteran Nguyen Anh Duc.
Since appearing in the SLNA first team (2015 season), Ho Tuan Tai has played a total of 87 matches, with a duration of 5562 minutes and scored 22 goals (only in the V.League arena). Ho Tuan Tai's first goal for the Nghe An team was the shot that increased the score to 2 - 0, in SLNA's 4 - 0 victory over Thanh Hoa, in round 6 of V.League 2015. At that time, Ho Tuan Tai was not yet 20 years old.
In recent seasons, Ho Tuan Tai was rarely arranged by SLNA's coaching staff to play in his favorite position as a striker. Because he could not compete with foreign strikers, the player from Hung Nguyen had to take on the position of right winger. That is the reason why Ho Tuan Tai could not fully utilize his scoring instinct, with a series of delicious opportunities being wasted.
In V.League 2020, the former U19 and U22 Vietnam player scored 5 goals, after 17 matches, with a duration of 1353 minutes. Thus, it took nearly 271 minutes for Ho Tuan Tai to score 1 goal. As mentioned above, one of the reasons why "Pham Van Quyen's cousin" did not have an impressive scoring efficiency was because he had to play in a position that was not his forte./.
