In 2014, Le Quang Hung was playing for Ninh Binh FC before being banned from playing for life by the Vietnam Football Federation (VFF) for his involvement in match-fixing. In early 2023, the VFF lifted the suspension so Quang Hung could return to football.
In March 2023, the defender born in 1992 joined Binh Duong Club. It was not until June 25 that Quang Hung was given his first chance to play in the 2023 V-League and scored against Viettel Club. "After a period of being taken care of by Binh Duong Club, I had the opportunity to return to V-League. Thank you Coach Le Huynh Duc for giving me the trust and opportunity," Quang Hung expressed.

The 31-year-old defender added: "After a long 9-year mistake, I really want to return to professional competition. I am really happy to be on the field in the match against Viettel Club. I have thought and worried a lot. I hope I can play well and score a goal. I want to apologize to my father in heaven. I hope he will be happy after my efforts in this match. In the past 9 years, I have made many mistakes, affecting my honor and that of my family. I apologize to my father. I also want to thank VFF and Binh Duong Club for giving me the opportunity to return to this professional playground."
After scoring against Viettel Club to level the score at 1-1 for Binh Duong Club, Quang Hung burst into tears. Quang Hung confided: "A week before I started the match against Viettel, Coach Le Huynh Duc encouraged me a lot. Coach Duc knew I was thirsty. He told me to play calmly, if I made a mistake, the coach would take responsibility. When I stepped onto the field and sang the national anthem, I cried. The mistake has caused me to miss the past 9 years. I owe the fans an apology and hope the fans will forgive me. I will try to practice well so that Coach Le Huynh Duc can give me the opportunity to start."

Quang Hung's goal could not help Binh Duong FC gain points at Hang Day Stadium. Viettel FC won 2-1 against coach Le Huynh Duc's team. Binh Duong's home team is still struggling at the bottom of the table. After 12 rounds, the team from Thu Dau Mot has only 7 points and is ranked 13th out of 14 teams on the rankings.
