Chau Ngoc Quang tore his ligament and missed the Vietnam national team

(Dan Tri) - Midfielder Chau Ngoc Quang suffered a very serious injury, forcing him to undergo surgery in the next few days. The Ninh Binh Club player is expected to be out for 6-8 months and this is bad news for the Vietnamese national team.

On September 28, Ninh Binh Club had a trip to Lach Tray Stadium of Hai Phong, within the framework of round 5 of V-League 2025-2026. In this match, Chau Ngoc Quang started. After about 15 minutes, he signaled to be substituted because of too much pain. The former midfielder of HA Gia Lai Club did not collide with anyone but was seriously injured.

According to the hospital examination results, Chau Ngoc Quang has torn the ligaments in his right knee. With this injury, the player born in 1996 will have to undergo surgery in the next few days (expected on October 2 in Ho Chi Minh City).

Thus, Chau Ngoc Quang will have to rest for 6-8 months, which means he will almost certainly have to say goodbye to the 2025-2026 season with Ninh Binh Club, and will be absent from the Vietnamese national team until the end of the final qualifying round of the 2027 Asian Cup.

This is really bad news for coach Kim Sang Sik, because Ngoc Quang is a player that the Korean strategist uses regularly in the Vietnamese team.

Chau Ngoc Quang is one of the talents of HA Gia Lai. He played for the Vietnam national team for the first time in 2022 under coach Park Hang Seo. In the most recent official match, Ngoc Quang played the full 90 minutes when the Vietnam national team visited Malaysia in June (lost 0-4).
