Huy Toan: ‘I knew that Cong Phuong would shine brightly'

In the two most recent victories of the HCMC club against Viettel and SLNA, Vo Huy Toan was tapped by Chung Hae Seong in the starting lineup and Phi Son was pushed to the bench. In the previous match, Huy Toan scored a decisive goal, sealing the 3-0 victory for Ho Chi Minh City against Viettel after Cong Phuong's pass.

The good corperation of the duo Cong Phuong and Huy Toan helped the Ho Chi Minh City Club return to the leading position on the chart.

Vo Huy Toan shared: "Cong Phuong is playing impressively in the last two matches of Ho Chi Minh City. He is showing more and more importance at the club. I was not surprised when Cong Phuong kept scoring goals. From the first day I watched Cong Phuong practice, I knew he would shine. "

"Cong Phuong and I had difficulties in the early stages, but now we integrate well with the team. Ho Chi Minh City is a strong team, suitable for my play. My goals or Phuong's are not from individual effort, which is a collective result. Ho Chi Minh City is confident after 2 consecutive victories with a big gap."

Huy Toan also added that the person who helped him and Cong Phuong rediscover his form was coach Chung Hae Seong. The Korean coach closely follows each player, not only on the field but also in daily life, helping the rookies quickly integrate with former teammates, creating a cohesive Ho Chi Minh City team.

The shine of Vo Huy Toan is good news for Coach Park Hang-seo. With an impressive performance, Huy Toan certainly scored points in Mr. Park's eyes and set the hope of returning to the Vietnamese team.
