What problem does Cong Phuong have?
In the match between Binh Phuoc and Dong Nai clubs in round 6 of the 2024-2025 national first division tournament on the evening of January 19, Cong Phuong was on the field from the start but could not play the full 90 minutes. In the 24th minute, after a burst of speed, Cong Phuong suddenly stopped even though there was no collision with an opposing player. He immediately signaled to be substituted.
According to Thanh Nien Newspaper, Cong Phuong suffered a strained adductor muscle and needed about a month to return to competition. Since then, he has been practicing with the team and has shown positive signs of recovery. On February 3, during the Binh Phuoc Club's reception of Ms. Tran Tue Hien - Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the Binh Phuoc Provincial People's Committee to visit and wish a happy new year, fans witnessed the first image of Cong Phuong after his injury.

Meanwhile, other players of Binh Phuoc Club all wore studded shoes to practice, preparing for their return.

The striker from Nghe An province happily received a lucky money envelope from Mrs. Hien but also made Binh Phuoc fans worried through a detail. That is, he only wore a pair of training shoes, not cleats. This means that the striker number 70 still has to practice separately, still has to recover and cannot return to practice with the ball with his teammates.
Thus, Cong Phuong is unlikely to recover sooner than expected. Therefore, he may not be able to play in the away match of Binh Phuoc FC to Long An Stadium against Long An FC, taking place at 4pm on February 9. If the initial diagnosis is correct, Cong Phuong will return around February 19. Thus, he may be able to play in the key match between Binh Phuoc FC and PVF-CAND, taking place at 6pm on March 2.
Coach Nguyen Anh Duc has a headache
The absence of Cong Phuong certainly causes many problems for Binh Phuoc Club. Since the beginning of the 2024-2025 season, every time the striker from Nghe An is locked down or absent, the team has almost run out of attacking ideas. Other strikers such as Le Thanh Binh and Ho Tuan Tai, despite having a lot of experience playing in the V-League, cannot lead the game and create a difference like Cong Phuong can do.
As in the last 2 matches where Cong Phuong did not play, Binh Phuoc FC played quite poorly. They only got 1 point against the weakest team in the tournament, Dong Nai FC, and won by a narrow margin against Dong Thap FC, which was relatively lucky, thanks to the opponent's individual mistake.
Binh Phuoc Club will likely not have Cong Phuong for at least 2 matches, including the big match with the top team Ninh Binh, taking place at 6pm on February 15. If they do not want to be left behind by coach Nguyen Viet Thang and his team, coach Nguyen Anh Duc needs to quickly solve the problem of depending on Cong Phuong.
