Midfielder Doan Ngoc Tan will definitely miss the match between Vietnam and Malaysia in the 2027 Asian Cup qualifiers. The 31-year-old player has returned to training with the Thanh Hoa team after an injury. However, doctors have asked him to be patient in his recovery instead of rushing back to the field.
According to the assessment of Thanh Hoa Club's medical department, Ngoc Tan needs at least 3 more weeks to be able to return to top competition. He is only ready to play in the last 2 matches of Dong A Thanh Hoa in V.League 2024/25 against Hanoi Police and Binh Duong. Doan Ngoc Tan was absent from the Vietnam national team's training session at the end of May 2025.
Doan Ngoc Tan returns to Thanh Hoa .
Doan Ngoc Tan was injured during the Thanh Hoa team's training session before the match against Hanoi FC on April 6, after a collision with Antonio Luiz. Doctors noticed something was wrong and took the midfielder born in 1994 for an X-ray.
As a result, Doan Ngoc Tan suffered a broken fibula and was out of action for more than 2 months. In recent times, Thanh Hoa FC has faced many difficulties when Vietnamese players were injured. Midfielder Antonio Luiz has lost his form, Vietnamese-American player Damoth Thongkhamsavath has left many impressions but he still needs time to adapt to the V.League.
Last weekend, Thanh Hoa FC lost 1-2 to Hai Phong in a match in which they missed many opportunities. In the post-match press conference, coach Tomislav Steinbruckner expressed his disappointment, apologized to the fans and expressed his desire to resign.
However, after a meeting with the team's leadership, he decided to continue his work. Chairman Cao Tien Doan assessed that the Croatian coach is still doing his job well. Coach Tomislav Steinbruckner needs more time to build a suitable football philosophy.
