Doan Van Hau (Soccer)

The 30th SEA Games in 2019 marked a historic milestone for Vietnamese football when winning the gold medal for the first time at the Southeast Asian Games after many years of desire since re-integration with regional sports since 1989. In the journey of making history in the Philippines of teachers and coaches Park Hang Seo, 20-year-old player Doan Van Hau is the name that has made the most impression.

Before the tournament took place, Van Hau soon attracted attention when he was the name that Mr. Park “named his face”, demanding to have a license on the left-wing corridor despite that time, he was in hand. Many players are performing very well in this position. VFF and Hanoi club had to spend more than 1 billion dong to pay the salary of the owner club SC Heerenveen to bring Van Hau back as the Korean coach wanted.

Responding to that expectation, Van Hau shone brightly. The first phase was a high bounce to make a wall, headed the ball to Duc Chinh to score in the 85th minute to beat Singapore U22. Then there were the passing phases such as helping U22 VN hold a draw against Thailand U22 despite being led by your team to 0-2 in the last round of the group stage. Van Hau continued to impress in the home team’s 4-0 victory over Cambodia U22 in the semi-finals.
