Xuan Son cannot rest after the AFF Cup, but must immediately do this...

Xuan Son with the first title with the team

With just 3 matches, Nguyen Xuan Son has created a fever in the Vietnamese national team. The Brazilian striker excelled in his debut match with 2 goals and 2 assists against Myanmar, helping his team win 5-0.

A few days later, Xuan Son scored another goal and won a penalty (Tien Linh successfully converted), contributing greatly to the 2-0 victory over Singapore in the first leg of the semi-final of the Vietnamese team. In the second leg of the semi-final, Xuan Son continued to "shoot" with 2 goals, helping the home team win 3-1 against Singapore to book a ticket to the final.

With 5 goals, Xuan Son has risen to the top of the list of top scorers. He "gained" 3 matches against other strikers, but still scored the most goals in the tournament before the final. Not only scoring regularly, Xuan Son also contributed a lot to the gameplay: he scored, created, dropped back to support the ball, pressed down to get the ball for his teammates and also put a lot of pressure to prevent the opponent from developing the ball.

However, after the AFF Cup 2024 ends with the second leg final on the evening of January 5, Xuan Son will not be able to rest, but will immediately return to Nam Dinh Club to prepare for the round of 16 of the National Cup. Nam Dinh team will play at home at Thien Truong Stadium to compete with Binh Duong at 6:00 p.m. on January 9. If Xuan Son plays in this match, he will only have 3 days to rest.

Then on January 19, Xuan Son and Nam Dinh team will welcome The Cong Viettel at home in round 10 of V-League 2024 - 2025. On January 24, Nam Dinh Club will visit Binh Dinh Club in round 11. After this match, Xuan Son will have Tet holiday.

Thus, the 27-year-old striker has 3 more matches after the AFF Cup 2024 before entering the holiday. The continuous training and competition schedule for the Vietnam national team as well as the club will be a big obstacle for Xuan Son.
