Former futsal player Tran Dang Thien
Dang Thien used to play for Tan Hiep Hung Club in national futsal tournaments and was also a member of the Vietnamese Student futsal team that won the silver medal at the 2020 Southeast Asian Student Games, while studying at the University of Physical Education and Sports.
After leaving the professional playing field, Dang Thien switched to coaching for Phu Duc Tri team from the end of 2023. In addition, he often participated in grassroots football tournaments and achieved many successes.
On the evening of June 3, Thien participated in a street football match and suddenly collapsed on the field without colliding with anyone. Despite the efforts of his teammates and medical staff on site, Dang Thien still did not survive and passed away at the age of 25.
Commenting on his junior, former player Nguyen Thanh Long Giang sadly said: "It was surprising and sad to hear that Thien suddenly passed away. Thien had a gentle and sociable personality, was loved by many players and worked with me to make many community football teaching clips."
Meanwhile, former captain and futsal player of the Vietnam national team Nguyen Bao Quan did not believe the truth: "He grew up in the Ho Chi Minh City futsal field, was a student of coach Pham Minh Giang, and played with me in the Southeast Asian Student Sports Festival futsal tournament. Thien was so young, it is a pity for the sudden passing of a gentle and lovely player."
Dang Thien's coffin was placed at An Binh Funeral Home (District 5, Ho Chi Minh City), then cremated at Da Phuoc Cemetery, Binh Chanh District.
