Xuan Son was "kicked" out of the national team by Cong Phuong, sending a shocking message?

Nguyen Cong Phuong is proving himself to be a strong candidate to replace Nguyen Xuan Son in the Vietnam national team. With his excellent performance, the Nghe An striker is gradually convincing the coaching staff and fans of his ability.

The injury of Nguyen Xuan Son - the brightest star of the Vietnamese team at the moment - has left a big gap in the squad. After winning the double title of Top Scorer and Best Player of the AFF Cup 2024, Xuan Son has proven his superior class. Not only scoring regularly with both feet, his ability to hold the ball and create assists, creating breakthroughs in situations approaching the goal is something that any team must be wary of.

However, with Xuan Son's long-term injury, opportunities have opened up for other strikers, including Nguyen Cong Phuong. The Nghe An player is making a strong comeback for Binh Phuoc Club, scoring 5 goals and having 1 assist after only 6 matches in the 2024-2025 National First Division. With this impressive performance, Cong Phuong has raised expectations that he will be recalled to the Vietnam national team, especially in the context of Xuan Son being unable to play.

However, just when fans thought Cong Phuong would have a chance to prove himself in the national team, an unexpected incident happened. In the match between Binh Phuoc and Dong Nai on January 19, Cong Phuong suddenly got injured while in good form. After only 24 minutes of playing, this striker had to leave the field amid the worries of fans and the team's coaching staff.

Although there is no official information about the severity of the injury, this has made many people worried about the ability to participate in the upcoming important matches of the Vietnam team, especially the 2027 Asian Cup qualifiers. Cong Phuong's current form at the club is very impressive, but if the injury persists, his chance to return to the Vietnam team will be seriously affected.

Cong Phuong's unexpected injury has reduced the certainty that he will be recalled to the national team. This not only affects Cong Phuong's chances but also makes coach Kim Sang Sik face a difficult problem in choosing personnel for the team.

While Cong Phuong is trying to recover, opportunities continue to open up for other strikers, but Xuan Son has not been able to return to play. In recent days, the football community has also witnessed the confirmation from experts that Cong Phuong can be a worthy replacement for Xuan Son if his form continues to be maintained.

Former striker Nguyen Hai Anh commented that Cong Phuong is very good at breaking the deadlock, especially in situations facing a crowded defense. Cong Phuong's performances at Binh Phuoc Club show that he can create a breakthrough, but if he cannot overcome this injury, will he have time to shine in the Vietnam national team?

While Cong Phuong was facing an injury, Xuan Son could not hide his worry when seeing his colleague facing this difficulty. In an interview, Xuan Son sent a message to Cong Phuong, encouraging him not to give up and to overcome this challenge.

With what he has shown throughout his career, Cong Phuong is still one of the most promising talents of Vietnamese football. However, this challenge - the unexpected injury - will be a big test for him. If he can overcome this difficult period and continue to maintain his impressive form, the opportunity for Cong Phuong to replace Xuan Son in the Vietnamese national team is completely possible.

However, football is full of surprises, and only time will tell whether Cong Phuong will be able to return in time and become a worthy "heir" to Xuan Son. Vietnamese football fans will certainly continue to follow, hoping for a bright future for Vietnamese football stars, where Cong Phuong can once again shine on the pitch.
