Bui Vi Hao's unexpected injury

The fierce encounter with the "young master" of the first division, Ninh Binh Club, on the afternoon of March 29 at Binh Duong Stadium is extremely important, because a victory will help Bui Vi Hao and his teammates secure the first medal of the 2024-2025 season.

After a thrilling penalty shootout, Binh Duong FC won a thrilling 5-4 victory over Ninh Binh FC to secure a ticket to the semi-finals of the National Cup, where they will meet the winner of the SLNA – Dong Thap match taking place at 6 p.m. on March 30.

The victory of the team from the land of Thu on the afternoon of March 29 might not have been so difficult if they had not suddenly lost the service of striker Bui Vi Hao close to the match, causing the young striker to be absent from the registration list.

In fact, Vi Hao had his shirt flipped during the training session on March 27, after an attempt to handle the ball. The pain was quite severe, forcing the striker born in 2003 to stop training immediately, and doctors fixed him with a splint to protect his ankle ligament.

Does not affect the Vietnam team's plan

At this time, Bui Vi Hao is being allowed to rest to reduce the swelling and pain, before being examined more thoroughly by doctors. According to the initial diagnosis, the striker of Binh Duong Club will need 2-3 weeks to recover.

Thus, Bui Vi Hao will be absent in rounds 17 and 18 when Binh Duong FC visits HAGL's Pleiku Stadium and then hosts Da Nang FC at home. The possibility of him playing in the "big match" between Binh Duong FC and Hanoi FC in round 19 on April 19 is still open.

But basically, if he is supported with good recovery training, Bui Vi Hao will still be able to return to play 4-5 V-League matches, before joining the Vietnamese national team after round 24 when Binh Duong Club will visit Thong Nhat Stadium of Ho Chi Minh City Club.

Thus, Vi Hao can regain his best form before joining coach Kim Sang-sik and the Vietnamese team on an extremely important away trip to Malaysia (June 10), to compete for the top spot in Group F in the third qualifying round of the 2027 Asian Cup.
