Bui Vi Hao thrives thanks to the trust of coach Hoang Anh Tuan and Binh Duong Club

Grow up!

Bui Vi Hao is growing up remarkably at Binh Duong Club as well as the Vietnam national team.

This season, Binh Duong FC is the only V-League team not to use foreign strikers. Instead, coach Hoang Anh Tuan puts all his trust in domestic strikers such as Tien Linh, Vi Hao, Viet Cuong, Duc Chinh…

This bold strategy is yielding positive results, as the team from the land of Thu is ranked 4th with 7 points, only 2 points behind the top team Thanh Hoa .

Binh Duong Club currently has 6 goals after 4 matches, only behind Thanh Hoa (9 goals) and HAGL (7 goals). In particular, captain Nguyen Tien Linh is shining brightly with 4 goals.

In particular, coach Hoang Anh Tuan is quite successful in boldly using the domestic striker pair Tien Linh - Vi Hao, in which Tien Linh plays as a striker mainly operating in the penalty area while Vi Hao freely operates around.

This arrangement just makes the most of the abilities of these two players. "King of the penalty area" Tien Linh puts a lot of pressure, forcing the central defenders to always be on guard.

At the same time, Tien Linh's clever off-ball movement helps Vi Hao have space to accelerate. Conversely, Vi Hao's enthusiasm also helps Tien Linh take advantage of the gaps that the opponent's defense leaves open.

Up to now, Vi Hao has not scored any goals in V-League 2024 - 2025, but the index at sofascore shows that he is playing better and better, with the last 3 matches all being scored above 7 points, respectively 7 points in 2 matches against Hai Phong Club, Hanoi Police and 7.4 points against Ho Chi Minh City Club.

Vi Hao's high performance with very fast and elegant steps creates the feeling that he can score at any time. This directly benefits the Vietnamese team, when right from the time he took over as coach, Kim Sang-sik paid special attention to the boy born in 2003.

The door is open for Vi Hao

Bui Vi Hao has made remarkable progress over the past year.

In the match against the Indian team, Vi Hao was trusted by Mr. Kim to start alongside Van Toan and played very energetically throughout the 62 minutes on the field (before being replaced by his senior Tien Linh).

In addition to the opening goal in the 38th minute, he often created a lot of trouble for the opposing defense because of his strong intensity, both in accelerating and putting pressure on the opposing defense every time the Vietnamese team lost the ball.

This suggests a high possibility that coach Kim Sang-sik will give more opportunities to this 1.80 m tall player, especially when Van Toan still has not achieved composure in the final stages - something that Vi Hao is clearly improving.

There is even a possibility that the Vietnamese team will use the striker pair Tien Linh - Vi Hao at the AFF Cup 2024, when both are playing very well together in the Binh Duong Club shirt.

If this happens, it will be a great recognition for Binh Duong Club, a team that always gives special priority to creating playing conditions for young players, as it did with Tien Linh and now Vi Hao.

At the age of 21, Vi Hao has played his 4th season in the V-League, with a total of 66 appearances for Binh Duong Club, scoring 8 goals. Especially since last season, he has shown clear maturity when playing a total of 25 matches, scoring 5 goals.

If we consider only the 2003 generation currently playing in the Vietnam national team, Bui Vi Hao is in the top group in terms of experience playing in the V-League alongside Thai Son at Thanh Hoa Club. Van Khang, Van Truong, Quoc Viet... have not yet secured a permanent position in V-League clubs.

When Van Quyet left the national team, coach Kim Sang-sik was able to put his trust in young striker Bui Vi Hao, who is growing up day by day thanks to the strong belief of Binh Duong Club. If he continues to maintain his current high form, he will absolutely be a formidable opponent for all his seniors in the upcoming AFF Cup 2024.
