2022 is definitely a very memorable year for the player born in 1999 – Doan Van Hau. The first impression was probably the fact that he was back on the pitch following 2 long years of being attached to the side with injuries and trips abroad for surgery.
In the 6th round of the V.League, for the first time since November 2020, new capital football fans can see Doan Van Hau playing in the colors of the home team of Hang Day Stadium. And immediately, Doan Van Hau played confidently in the dramatic victory of Hanoi FC, 2-1 once morest Hai Phong. This signaled a strong return of the defender in the following months.
And as expected, Doan Van Hau is one of the most important factors in Hanoi FC’s journey to win the V.League Championship. The timely and timely return of Doan Van Hau made the left wing of the capital team strong and powerful.
But perhaps it is not until the AFF Cup 2022 that the name of the original Thai Binh player is mentioned more than ever. It’s been a long time since Mr. Park has had the service of this “beloved student”. After the past tournaments with the absence of a true wing-back, people see how important this comeback of Doan Van Hau is.
However, besides the professional factor, Doan Van Hau’s “snake” play style, not afraid to collide and ready to “have enough” with the players on the team also made him receive a lot of criticism from both fans. domestic and Southeast Asian fans.
However, it is worth mentioning that Van Hau is protected by his teammates and coach Park Hang-seo. Coach Park Hang-seo would normally react harshly to the referee if a player on your team behaves like Doan Van Hau, but he is completely calm when his student plays in this style.
The Korean strategist frankly said: “Football is a sport that requires contact. In this match, the players play fiercely because they are determined to contribute to the team and to win. They follow the rules of football, so it cannot be called a match. violence”.
Objectively, the actions that are considered “excess” of the star born in 1999 are completely intentional. Whenever the home team has an advantage or wants to reduce the excitement of the opponent, Doan Van Hau will deliberately create a collision situation that interrupts the game and angers the opponent.
At that time, both the attacking circuit and the opponent’s momentum were reduced and it was also the time for the other players of the Vietnamese team to rest and regain focus. Thus, it can be seen that Doan Van Hau is sacrificing and ready to become a “butcher” in the eyes of the audience in exchange for good results for Vietnam Tel.
Maybe Hau’s slyness is what Vietnamese football has lacked so far. We have been outdone by the brutality of our regional rivals for many years. In the continental arena, we can’t compete even more because of our loss in bodybuilding and fitness. But following each failure, there are clichéd encouragements “keep your head high”, or “we lost but played well”.
2022 will probably be more complete for Doan Van Hau if he can join the Vietnamese team to win the AFF Cup in Mr. Park’s last tournament. But everything is still ahead. The year 2023 promises to be a year of many goals for Doan Van Hau – when the Mao-year-old player has just parted from Hanoi FC and moved to play in the colors of CAHN club.
