Van Toan will soon say goodbye to AFF Cup 2024
In the 60th minute, Van Toan had a very strong collision with the Myanmar defender. Although he tried to continue playing, he was then forced to signal to be replaced on a stretcher.
Tien Linh came on to replace Van Toan and had 1 goal and 1 assist, contributing to the 5-0 victory over Myanmar. On the day rookie Xuan Son shined brightly with 2 goals and 2 assists.
This victory helps the Vietnamese team ranked first in Group B with 10 points, and will meet Singapore in the semi-finals of AFF Cup 2024, with the first leg at Jalan Besar on December 26 and the second leg at Viet Tri Stadium on December 29.
The Vietnamese team will have to find a solution to replace Van Toan
Unfortunately, Van Toan will hardly have a chance to play. Initial examination results showed that the striker of Nam Dinh Club had a knee injury and showed signs of ligament damage.
With this type of injury, with the AFF Cup 2024 only about 2 weeks away from ending with the final return match on December 5, Van Toan seems to have no chance to compete.
This will pose a difficult problem for coach Kim Sang-sik when Van Toan with his speed and ability to take advantage of space is an important attack plan for the Vietnamese team.
