Midfielder Phan Van Duc - the 'evil spirit' of the Hai Phong football team
(Baonghean.vn) - Meeting Hai Phong away is a great opportunity for the Yen Thanh player to end a streak of 9 consecutive "goalless" matches in V.League 2020.
Almost certainly,Phan Van Ducwill continue to lead the SLNA attack in the match against the home team Hai Phong. In addition to his proven talent, the striker wearing the number 20 shirt is also a player with a knack for scoring goals at Lach Tray Stadium. No other SLNA player can do what Duc "tiger" can.
