Công Phượng's close friend continues to shine in the First Division team

Minh Vương made a strong impression wearing the Trường Tươi Đồng Nai jersey after just the first two matches.

Having joined the club recently, Minh Vương is demonstrating quick and effective adaptation. In just 121 minutes of official play over two matches, he contributed 2 goals and 2 assists, becoming a key player in the attacking strategy of the Green Warriors.

In the season’s first official match, Trường Tươi Đồng Nai hosted V-League representative Becamex TP HCM in the National Cup qualifiers. Minh Vương played only the last 40 minutes but shone with a stunning free-kick goal and provided an assist in the team's 3-0 victory.

Next, in the first round of the First Division, Trường Tươi Đồng Nai welcomed TP HCM at home. Minh Vương started the match and continued to impress by assisting Lưu Tự Nhân to open the scoring early in the second half and then scoring himself to make it 2-1 in the 76th minute. Unfortunately, the match ended in a 2-2 draw.

In the first two matches of the season, while Công Phượng was still recovering from injury and unable to play, many feared Trường Tươi Đồng Nai would struggle to score. However, another former HAGL star, Minh Vương, responded impressively with 2 goals and 2 assists.

Ahead lies a challenging away match at Thống Nhất Stadium. With his current form, Minh Vương is expected to continue making a difference, helping Trường Tươi Đồng Nai maintain stability and hunger for victory.

Leaving HAGL after the 2024/2025 season, Minh Vương parted ways with the club he had been with for 18 years since his youth player days. Compared to teammates of the same generation such as Xuân Trường, Công Phượng, Tuấn Anh, Văn Toàn, Hồng Duy, Văn Thanh... Minh Vương was the last player to leave HAGL, while his peers had already won various titles.
