Duy Manh teaches Nguyen Filip to 'burn his soul'

Nguyen Filip was taught "burning the soul" by Duy Manh.

On the afternoon of December 12, Nguyen Filip posted a video of him being taught the "burning of the soul" ritual by central defender Do Duy Manh according to Vietnamese folk beliefs. This action is to ward off bad luck. Nguyen Filip seems to have had "bad luck" since he joined the Vietnamese national team. He started in 9 matches and the Vietnamese team did not win any of them, regardless of whether the opponent was weak or strong.

But as soon as coach Kim Sang-sik put Nguyen Filip on the bench, the Vietnamese team immediately beat Laos even though the main goalkeeper Nguyen Dinh Trieu still made mistakes.

Many people believe that Nguyen Dinh Trieu is the number 1 goalkeeper of the Vietnamese team at the AFF Cup 2024. If the goalkeeper of Hai Phong Club maintains his form, Nguyen Filip will hardly have a chance to play in this year's tournament.
