How has Lank FC created conditions for you when you received invitation from organizing unit of the Vietnam Golden Ball Awards 2022 ceremony?
Both head coach and Lank FC managers were very eager to create favorable conditions for me to attend the Vietnam Golden Ball Awards 2022 ceremony organized by SGGP Newspaper this time. They all knew that the award was very notable of SGGP Newspaper and the country for football. As for me, I felt very honored to come back to the country joining the ceremony.
The actual experience of playing football in Lank FC
After a short period playing in Portugal for Lank FC, I saw that female football players of the European country got both good skill and fitness. They took advantage of their strengths which were one of the most difficulties of our team.
In the latest match, women national team of Portugal defeated New Zealand with a score of 5-0. With the victory, I thought that our national team had to focus on training to well prepare for the tournament.
Although we do not know our competitors either Cameroon or Portugal, we have to well prepare for the upcoming match. The good preparation was one of the best experience that I felt very appreciated and I thought that I had to try more. I will enjoy this time with my beloved family and will come back to train more and more.
Mr. Huynh Thanh Liem who is Huynh Nhu’s father said that he and his wife departed from Tra Vinh to HCMC from 3:00 a.m. to welcome their daughter. On the occasion, the whole family will have time to cook Tet holiday dishes as she could not come back home on the Lunar New Year holidays.
Huynh Nhu is on the top five of players for the category of Women’s Golden Ball along with Bich Thuy, Kim Thanh, Tuyet Dung and Thuy Trang.
The Vietnam Golden Ball Awards 2022 gala will be organized at Ben Thanh Theater on February 25 evening. All of the players and their families invited to the gala will be arranged to stay in Rex Sai Gon hotel.
