In the 36th minute of the match between The Cong Viettel and Ho Chi Minh City Police in Hang Day, midfielder Khuat Van Khang collided with an opponent in a ball dispute situation.
He lay on the field in pain and was given first aid by the medical team. After that, the midfielder born in 2003 could not continue playing. Coach Popov reluctantly had to put Dang Van Tram on the field to replace Van Khang.
According to observations, Van Khang had a tear in his mouth, and had to use a band to wrap around his face to secure the piece of equipment to avoid further bleeding. A few minutes after entering the dressing room, he went out onto the ambulance to go to the hospital to suture the wound.
The Cong Viettel is not subjective with Khuat Van Khang's injury. Because before that, Bui Hoang Viet Anh (Hanoi Police) had also encountered a similar situation and had to take 18 stitches when he could not stop the bleeding.
The absence of Van Khang in the remaining part of the match more or less affected The Cong Viettel. However, at the end of the first half, the army team was leading their opponents with a score of 1-0 thanks to Pedro Henrique's goal on the penalty spot.
