Even compared to the bulk of his career achievements, Minh Phuong is more than two young teammates mentioned above. Discovered in the colors of the Saigon port, Minh Phuong later owned a record-breaking and loud Vietnamese soccer contract in 2002.
That day, Dong Tam Long An’s chosen Thang club purchased the Minh Phuong contract in the port of Saigon for VND 400 million (VND 399 million to be exact), ushering in a new era for the Vietnamese soccer transfer market. : That the player can freely go to another club, if he compensates enough money to break the contract with the old club.
In fact, at that time Vietnamese football did not have the concept of a professional contract, but the players only signed employment contracts with clubs, like most workers in many other fields. The transfer of Minh Phuong and Dong Tam Long An in late 2002 was also a turning point, as professional clubs later more strictly implemented professional contracts.
On that day, Minh Phuong said: “The player’s life is very short, so everyone wants to choose the best way to help their families. In my heart, Saigon Port is still the place to start my career, training me to be a good person. I will never forget Miss Thai (“female general” leader Nguyen Xuan Thai), Uncle Tam Lang (Coach Pham Huynh Tam Lang), Brother Chinh (Coach Dang Tran Chinh, who was assistant to Coach Tam Lang that day), and many other colleagues from equipment. But I have to find a place to secure my future. “
Leaving the port of Saigon, arriving at Dong Tam Long An, Minh Phuong’s career has just entered a new milestone, full of sublimation, under the training hands of “witch” Henrique Calisto.
Mr. Callisto pulled Minh Phuong out of a single-sided position, played the role of central midfielder, before producing one of the best organized midfielders Vietnamese soccer has ever known.
Minh Phuong and Tai Em and coach Calisto made Dong Tam Long An, Thang’s normal capital, the power of Vietnamese football, winning League V twice in 2005 and 2006, before the trio won together. AFF Cup 2008: the first champion of Southeast Asia in the history of national football.
And it was in the final of the 2008 AFF Cup, it was Minh Phuong who made the deciding pass, so Cong Vinh led the winning goal in the final round at My Dinh Stadium, deciding the championship.
After the 2008 AFF Cup, chosen Thang once joked that the shoes Minh Phuong wore that day were the most valuable, as they were evidence of a historic pass.
Minh Phuong’s career is not only the step to life we just mentioned, but he is the most talented midfielder in Vietnamese football. The Minh Phuong technique was later seen in junior players belonging to the most talented of the current generation, such as Tuan Anh and Xuan Truong.
Tuan Anh and Xuan Truong are rare players who can pass a full line of defense from the opponent, putting their teammates in a position to score, just like Minh Phuong’s year.
Minh Phuong, in addition to his soccer talent, is also known as a living star. Famous in the period when national players made a lot of money, but unlike their peers like Nhu Thanh, Quang Thanh, Minh Phuong and Tai Em, they hardly bother with scandals on and off the field. grass
Therefore, Minh Phuong is also one of the most persistent players, he only retired at the age of 35, after having one more V-League championship with SHB Da Nang in 2012, closing an emblem career. Royal deserves junior to learn.
On parting day 2015, Minh Phuong was moved to say: “I am very happy because many people love me. For me, having to say goodbye to the player’s life, to the career that I have eaten, slept and passionate for 17 years is an easy decision ”..
