Viettel coach admitted helplessness to face Cong Phuong

As a visitor to Thong Nhat yard, Viettel continued to play well thanks to the excellent players. However, this was a trap that Ho Chi Minh City had set up with sharp bait like Cong Phuong or Huy Toan.

Ho Chi Minh City scored three goals including the shine of Cong Phuong as planned. He scored a goal and helped Huy Toan finish. In the post-match press conference, Viettel's coach Truong Viet Hoang highly appreciated Cong Phuong's performance.

"My players were unable to block Cong Phuong in today's match. He played very aggressively, creating a lot of space for his teammates. We will have to reconsider the defensive system".

Cong Phuong played impressively in this match. His wide rang play and wise ability had forced coach Truong Viet Hoang to switch from the 2-center-back to 3-center-back form. However, pushing up the team made them pay the price and receive consecutive goals.

Last time, Cong Phuong met a lot of pressure as he could not score in many matches. He was brought back with a high transfer price, so it was accompanied by equally great expectation. However, the performance in the last match somewhat relieved the pressure for this player.

Coach Chung Hae-seong was also very pleased with the player's display. Another noteworthy point was that Chung has decided to put Phi Son on the bench. Maybe Chung saw the problem of the corperation between Cong Phuong and Phi Son on the field when both were the central players of the team.
