If Ho Chi Minh City advances in the AFC Cup arena, it is likely that Cong Phuong will not be able to participate in the AFF Cup 2020 with Vietnam.

Recently, the Asian Football Association has announced the scheduled for the rest of the AFC Cup 2020. Accordingly, the remaining matches in the group stage are scheduled to take place on 23, 26 and 29/9.

The semi-finals and finals will take place 1 turn on October 20-21 and November 4. Next, semifinals and regional finals will take place on November 24-25 and December 2. Finally, the final of the AFC Cup will take place on 12/12.

In this arena, Vietnamese football currently has two representatives: Ho Chi Minh City Club and Than Quang Ninh Club. Both teams are getting off to a good start and have many opportunities to advance to the next round. In particular, experts assess coach Chung Hae Seong's army has many opportunities to replicate the performance of Hanoi FC last season.

However, if the HCMC club goes deeper at the AFC Cup, the preparation of Vietnam for the AFF Cup 2020 will be affected. In case the V-League runner-up enters the inter-regional semi-finals, it is likely that the pillar players like Cong Phuong, Huy Toan and Hoang Thinh will not be able to summon with Vietnam for the tournament at the end of the year.

The reason is because the AFF Cup 2020 is not a FIFA tournament, so clubs are not obliged to release players for the national team. Moreover, if reaching the semi-regional semi-finals, the HCMC club is also very close to creating a historic milestone for Vietnamese football.

If this happens, this can be considered a huge loss for Park Hang-seo. The players in HCMC are in very good shape this season, especially Cong Phuong. The Nghe An-born striker opened fire in the last two matches in the 2020 V-League. Without Cong Phuong, the Korean strategist will lose a quality plan for Vietnam's attack.
