Xuan Son's first steps without crutches
Yesterday (February 7), striker Xuan Son started to put down his crutches and practice walking. The striker's movements are still very difficult, after a serious injury in the second leg of the AFF Cup 2024 final on February 5. Currently, Xuan Son still needs handrails on both sides to support him in walking. However, Xuan Son remains optimistic, still ready to accept the not-so-simple challenges ahead.
Xuan Son puts down crutches to practice walking, tries hard to return to the field soon
According to his recovery plan, Xuan Son will need at least 3-5 months to return to the field. That is not a short period of time, requiring the injured player to be extremely patient and strictly follow the medical instructions of the medical team.
While Xuan Son is recovering from his injury, the Vietnamese team still has to perform international duties, specifically two matches in the third qualifying round of the 2027 Asian Cup, against Laos on March 25 and Malaysia on June 10. The mission of the Vietnamese team in the two matches above is to win, aiming for a ticket to the final round of the 2027 Asian Cup.
In particular, the match at Bukit Jalil Stadium (in Kuala Lumpur) of Malaysia on June 10 will not be simple. This team is the main opponent of the Vietnamese team in the Asian qualifiers, and at the same time, they are very determined to defeat the Vietnamese team.
The healthy players will have more motivation from Xuan Son's efforts.
Once Xuan Son is absent from the match against Malaysia on June 10, our task of scoring against Malaysia will be more difficult. However, the remaining players will try their best to help coach Kim Sang-sik's team not weaken without Nguyen Xuan Son.
Seeing Xuan Son trying hard to return to the field, the remaining players will have more motivation to play better in the future. Xuan Son was seriously injured but did not give up, still hoping to one day be able to compete again on the Vietnamese field, so the healthy players have no reason to lack effort.
For national team strikers or those who are likely to be called up to the national team in the near future such as Tien Linh, Tuan Hai, Van Toan, Vi Hao, Thanh Binh, or Viet Cuong, Manh Dung, Quoc Viet... their efforts on the field in the coming days will decide their official playing spots in the matches against Laos and Malaysia in the Asian Cup qualifiers.
The above players themselves certainly want to prove that Vietnamese football always has enough talent to stand firm on the international arena, despite the absence of one or several key players at certain times. They want to prove that they are capable of shouldering the task of scoring goals during the time Nguyen Xuan Son is temporarily away from the Vietnamese team due to injury!
