The image of Vietnam national football team player Nguyen Xuan Son celebrating a goal was carved on wood by fans very vividly.

In recognition of the talent and contributions that player Nguyen Xuan Son has made in recent matches for the Vietnam national team, a fan in Quoc Oai (Hanoi) and his colleagues created a very vivid wooden sculpture based on the image of player Xuan Son celebrating a goal.

Sharing with reporters, Mr. Bui Trong Quan (Moc Than Craft Village, Quoc Oai, Hanoi) - the person who created the above sculpture said that he and his colleagues focused on making it and spent 1 week to complete this work, right on the day of the first leg final match of ASEAN Cup 2024 between Vietnam and Thailand (January 2, 2025).

The work is crafted on a piece of Chun cartilage red wood, a position with very good wood quality on a tree. The work is 50cm in diameter and 6cm thick.

According to Mr. Quan, he and his colleagues meticulously studied every angle of the player's face, from there they better understood the expressions and movements of facial muscles and transferred them into wooden paintings.

"The most difficult part of a portrait work is the facial expression and the spirit and unique features of each character, requiring the craftsman to put his own emotions into the process. Those are the eyes, the smile, the freshness, the generosity, the freedom... All of these things only appear in a moment and we need to capture this moment to be able to convey and put our soul into each chiseled stroke," Mr. Bui Trong Quan shared.

Anh Quan also shared that Vietnamese football fans are considered the most football-loving people in the world. Football helps people to be happier, more united, and understand each other better. Football even helps people to be stronger and more excited to overcome difficulties in work and life.

"Above all, this is the sentiment of the Vietnamese people, always showing hospitality. We consider Xuan Son as a true Vietnamese person. This is also the mark of traditional Vietnamese handicraft, not only making sophisticated floral objects but also conveying the character's spirit very delicately", Mr. Bui Trong Quan shared.

Anh Quan also hopes that this sculpture will be a spiritual gift for player Nguyen Xuan Son to be ready to compete with the Vietnamese national team to win the highest position at the ASEAN Cup 2024 and other tournaments in the future.

The first leg of the 2024 ASEAN Cup final between Vietnam and Thailand will take place at 8:00 p.m. on January 2 at Viet Tri Stadium (Phu Tho province), live on FPT Television.
