Van Toan played 81 minutes of the first match of K-League 2
Scoring: Oliveira 71, Nishi 76 - Paulinho 9, Moon 51, Jorge Luiz 64
Like in a friendly match two weeks ago, Van Toan continued to kick the ball next to striker Ronan David in the K-League 2 opening match. He moved widely, helped defend a lot, but didn't score or create. Seoul was 3-0 down, and then got two goals, but couldn't escape defeat.
The most significant impression of Van Toan was probably the situation at the end of the first half, when he broke into the penalty area to apply pressure, causing the visitors' defenders to break the ball and not get past the penalty area. The ball reached Seo Bo-min's foot in the penalty area, but the midfielder hit the corner and missed the column.
In addition to a few situations of snatching the ball, Van Toan also occasionally smashes with his teammates, even though he does not directly create opportunities. In the first half, he paired the striker with Ronan, but from the 52nd minute, the Vietnamese player switched to playing the left striker. He also ran behind the opponent's defense many times, but was not passed the ball by his teammates.
