Midfielder Phi Son missed the match with Hanoi FC
(Baonghean.vn) - According to Phi Son's confirmation, he will continue to be absent from Ho Chi Minh City FC's away match against Hanoi FC in round 7, taking place at Hang Day Stadium on April 27.
The midfielder from Ha Tinh suffered an ankle injury during a training session with the Thong Nhat Stadium team in mid-January. At first, Phi Son planned to go to Korea for surgery like defender Vu Van Thanh (HAGL). However, after consulting with experts, the former SLNA player decided to recover through therapy.
Phi Son's efforts have been rewarded. Up to now, the player nicknamed "Vietnam's Ronaldo" has recovered from his injury and is almost in the best physical condition. However, the coaching staff of Ho Chi Minh City Club will not use Phi Son immediately to avoid unnecessary risks. Certainly, the 27-year-old midfielder will not play in the highlight match of round 7 between Hanoi Club and Ho Chi Minh City Club.

The return of Phi Son made coach Chung Hea-seong and his colleagues extremely happy. In V.League 2018, the player wearing the number 10 shirt was one of the most outstanding players of the Thong Nhat Stadium team. In the achievement of 12th place of Ho Chi Minh City Club, "Vietnam's Ronaldo" played 21 matches, scored 6 goals and contributed 9 assists. Phi Son's importance to Ho Chi Minh City Club is not small.
At this time, coach Chung Hea-seong and his team are leading the V.League 2019 rankings after 6 rounds (5 wins, 1 draw). The match against Hanoi FC is an extremely important test for Hoang Thinh and his teammates on their journey to conquer the V.League 2019 throne. Unfortunately, Phi Son is still absent./.
