Ho Chi Minh City Club won big against Da Nang, Coach Vu Tien Thanh unexpectedly mentioned Lee Nguyen

In the match of round 10 of V-League 2023 taking place at Thong Nhat Stadium on the evening of May 31, Ho Chi Minh City Club surprisingly won a big victory over Da Nang Club with a score of 5-1. Three full points against the Han River team helped the "Red Battleship" somewhat save the situation in the relegation race.

Mansaray and Hoang Vu Samson scored twice to help Ho Chi Minh City FC win impressively.

After the match, coach Vu Tien Thanh shared: "Before the match, I was quite worried because the foreign central defender was suspended. However, our team played cautiously, persistently and after scoring 2 goals, we were more relaxed. It's been a long time since we had such a brilliant match. Da Nang FC is a strong team. In fact, we are trying to maintain our position in the top 6 relegation teams, so the remaining 8 matches are all finals. We need to find a new central defender, must strengthen the midfield, in a difficult context. Now the team is more comfortable mentally, looking forward to the next away match against SLNA. We will earn each point."

At the beginning of the season, Coach Vu Tien Thanh mentioned Lee Nguyen and said that the Vietnamese-American midfielder would be ready to return to help Ho Chi Minh City FC. After the big win against Da Nang FC, the former coach of Saigon FC suddenly mentioned this: "Lee Nguyen is our reserve. As I have discussed, in case the team encounters the most difficult and dangerous situation, he is ready to return."

Coach Vu Tien Thanh somewhat relieved the pressure.

After a resounding victory over the Han River team, Ho Chi Minh City FC temporarily ranked 12th with 7 points. In the next match, coach Vu Tien Thanh's team will face SLNA on the afternoon of June 6. Meanwhile, coach Phan Thanh Hung's team continues to sink to the bottom of the rankings with only 5 points after 10 matches. In round 11, the Han River team will meet Binh Duong FC on June 5.
