Trong Hoang has a herniated disc, missing the match against China
(Baonghean.vn) - The Vietnamese team is in a very difficult situation regarding personnel, as Trong Hoang has a herniated disc and Minh Vuong is unable to recover from a knee injury and will likely be absent from the match against China.
After being examined by a doctor,Trong Hoangwas diagnosed with a herniated disc. The player from Nghe An received a request to stop training and receive treatment at Hospital 108.
With this injury, it is almost certain that Trong Hoang will not be able to join the Vietnamese team in the UAE to play against China on October 7. The Nghe An player is even at risk of missing the match against Oman on October 12 and two home matches in November.
Losing Trong Hoang is a big loss for coach Park Hang Seo, because the role of the player wearing the number 8 shirt is irreplaceable. With a strong physical foundation and good fighting ability, Trong Hoang is always coach Park Hang Seo's number 1 choice when the Vietnamese team meets opponents with good physique.
However, with the constant "hard work" at both the club and the national team, Trong Hoang has suffered many injuries of varying degrees.
In addition to Trong Hoang, the Vietnamese team will also be without Minh Vuong in the two matches in October. The HAGL midfielder suffered a knee ligament injury before the match against Saudi Arabia but was still allowed to stay with the team for rehabilitation training. Today, Minh Vuong returned to the club to continue treatment for the injury, waiting for an opportunity in the next training sessions. The 26-year-old midfielder suffered an injury during a training session in preparation for the matches against Saudi Arabia and Australia. According to the conclusion, Minh Vuong suffered a torn knee ligament.

Recently, the HAGL midfielder continued to stay with the national team to receive treatment from the medical team. However, realizing that Minh Vuong would not recover in time to participate in the 2 away matches in October, coach Park Hang Seo decided to let Minh Vuong return to the club for treatment.

Regarding the other personnel situation of the team, in the internal match (Vietnam team divided into two teams to compete against each other) on September 26, Thanh Chung played quite well despite having just recovered from a thigh injury. Tien Dung has also fully recovered from an adductor injury, so he played the whole match with quite good form. Dinh Trong has also shown signs of good recovery as he will practice with the team on the afternoon of September 29.
Returning to the Vietnam team's practice match, Team A won Team B with a score of 2-1 thanks to Tien Linh's double against goalkeeper Van Hoang. Meanwhile, Team B of the Vietnam team had a goal scored by Cong Phuong against goalkeeper Nguyen Manh.
The Vietnamese team is expected to have a practice match with U22 on September 29, then reduce the list to 25-26 players to leave for the UAE on October 1, preparing for the match against China on October 7.
