Quang Hai has not been able to make a mark in France's fifth place

*Score: Lespinasse 11', 38', Bouchlarhem 67', Degert 84' - Ali 39'.

This is Quang Hai's third time playing for Pau B, after the matches against Neuville on February 5 and Montois on February 12. Like the previous two matches, he started but did not score or assist despite the home team's four goals. The 26-year-old midfielder plays in an attacking position, behind the strikers Theo Bouchlarhem and Loick Lespinasse, in the 3-4-1-2 system of coach Benjamin Bertrand.

The French newspaper La Republique des Pyrenees did not mention Quang Hai when reviewing the main event of the match. They only commented that the Vietnamese midfielder "is in the process of finding time and confidence to play again".

Pau B got into the game and opened the scoring in the 11th minute when defender Pape Djitte broke through on the flank and crossed for Lespinasse to finish close. In the 38th minute, Bouchlarhem poked a gap for Lespinasse to face the goalkeeper and hit the net twice. But just a minute later, the home team was awarded a penalty and Mahamat Ali Idrissa took advantage of the opportunity to shoot 11m into the net to regain a goal for the visitors.

The match took place on Nouste Camp's side field, artificial grass, with only about 90 spectators watching. Quang Hai takes care of most of the set-pieces for the home team, but the goals don't leave his mark. In the 67th minute, Pau B received a free kick, but Bouchlarhem finished it, scoring to make it 3-1.

With a fairly safe distance, Pau B's substitutions were constantly effective when midfielder Ferhat Cogalan made a mark when he started the attack, letting Marius Ros cross for striker Sonny Degert to finish the victory 4-1. The victory helped Pau B climb to fifth place with 28 points, eight points behind leaders Libourne.

The French fifth division consists of 168 teams divided into 12 regions, 14 teams each, of which Pau B has just risen from sixth place and plays in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region. Pau's first team players often play for the B team when they need to accumulate fitness and ensure the feeling of competition. In the match against Chatellerault, Antoine Batisse, Lespinasse and Quang Hai were first team players playing for Pau B.

Quang Hai was not registered in the match Pau FC lost to host Amiens 0-1 in round 26 of Ligue 2 on the evening of March 4. Therefore, he and Lespinasse have the opportunity to play for Pau B. Batisse has just returned from a long-term knee injury.

Quang Hai played 12 matches in Ligue 2, in 254 minutes, averaging 21 minutes per game. The last time the 26-year-old midfielder played for the first team Pau FC was when he entered in the 80th minute of the defeat to the Laval team on February 18, 2023. Quang Hai once scored a goal in Ligue 2, in a 2-2 draw with Rodez on the evening of October 8, 2022. In the French second division, Pau FC is ranked 16th with 27 points, right above the group holding the red light.
