At the ASEAN Cup 2024, this player born in 1997 from Cam Hoang (Cam Giang) is the second explosive player of the Vietnamese team, with 4 goals and shares the position of the second highest scorer with Shawal Anuar of Singapore.

Hoang Duc stood on stage for the fourth time to present the Vietnam Golden Ball award.

The winner of the 2024 Vietnam Silver Ball award is Nguyen Hoang Duc. The midfielder born in 1998, from Hai Duong, is the brightest star of the Vietnam team at the 2024 AFF Cup, especially in the semi-finals and finals with a dignified performance, demonstrating the qualities of a "boss" in the midfield.

Hoang Duc played for The Cong Viettel in the first half of the season. He and his team finished fourth in the 2023-2024 V-League. After that, the 26-year-old player moved to Ninh Binh Club to play in the first division. He scored 2 goals in 6 matches, helping the new team lead the first division with an all-win record, leaving PVF-CAND and Binh Phuoc 7 points behind.

Although he could not win the Vietnam Golden Ball, 2024 was a turning point marking the return of Hoang Duc in the national team shirt. He overcame a period of stagnation under former coach Philippe Troussier to affirm his ability as one of the best midfielders that Vietnamese football has ever produced.
