Center back Pham Ly Duc's injury is not as serious as expected and he can return soon; U17 Indonesia lost 0-6 to U17 North Korea and stopped at the 2025 AFC U17 Championship. Those are the outstanding sports news in the past 24 hours.

Variables with striker Nguyen Xuan Son

The 1-1 draw against Ho Chi Minh City FC was a clear reminder: Nam Dinh are still living in the memory of Nguyen Xuan Son. Not only a striker, he is the soul in the tactical operation of the Southern team this season.

Since Xuan Son was injured, Nam Dinh has entered a period of struggling with itself.

The variables are very clear through the telling numbers. In the last 3 matches with Nguyen Xuan Son, Nam Dinh won absolutely, scoring 12 goals and conceding only 1. Xuan Son alone contributed 5 goals - a devastating performance, demonstrating the class of a modern striker. He not only scored goals, but also created continuous pressure on the opponent's defense, stretching the defense system, opening up space for the second line to run up.

But since Xuan Son was injured, Nam Dinh has entered a period of struggling with itself. In the next 9 matches, the team from Nam Dinh only won 4 times, and also only scored exactly 12 goals - equal to the achievement of the first 3 matches of the season. This shows one thing: Xuan Son is the most important "variable" in the way Nam Dinh organizes the game.

He still has a thirst for playing at the highest level and wants to continue his association with Real Madrid, despite his current contract expiring this summer and his future being unclear.

Vietnam national team player gives good news to coach Kim Sang-sik

Center back Pham Ly Duc's injury is not as serious as expected and he may soon return to the Vietnam national team.

On the afternoon of April 14, center back Pham Ly Duc started training again after a 2-week injury break. However, at this time, Ly Duc has only started recovery exercises in the gym instead of outdoor ball exercises. HAGL does not want their young player to take risks and possibly prolong the injury.

Pham Ly Duc can return to competition from early May.

Ly Duc had problems after the match between HAGL and The Cong Viettel in the quarter-finals of the National Cup. The defender's injury originated from a situation where he was tackling the ball. The unfavorable landing position caused Ly Duc to be in pain. Coach Le Quang Trai said that the bad grass at My Dinh Stadium was the main reason for the HAGL player's injury.

If the injury recovery process goes smoothly, Pham Ly Duc can return to competition from the beginning of May. He is even ready to join the Vietnam national team when coach Kim Sang-sik puts his trust in him.

Fans demand "ban all football activities" with Mbappe

Many angry opinions demand "banning all football activities" for Real Madrid and French national team star Kylian Mbappe.

The reason why many people are angry with Mbappe is because he just had an action of 'leaving the ball behind', committing a brutal foul on Antonio Blanco.

Many people expressed their anger at the former PSG striker: “Mbappe’s cruel foul”. There were even comments calling for a permanent ban from football for the French striker: “The foul is unacceptable, he should be banned from all football activities”.
