In a short video produced for the AFC and released last week, Do Hung Dung said “Everyone should fully acknowledge the disease, take responsibility for their community, and trust the government’s strategy to defeat the disease.” The Hanoi FC midfielder was one of three Asian football stars selected to promote #BreakTheChain, along with Japanese goalkeeper Hiroki Iikura of Vissel Kobe FC and Hattan Bahebri of Saudi Arabia.

Following the release of the video featuring Dung, Ha Duc Chinh appeared in a clip released by the AFC on Sunday, advising people to “Be healthy and united to push back the disease.” The SHB Da Nang FC forward is joined in the video by two other notable Asian football figures, Ali Mabkhout of the United Arab Emirates and Maria Manda of Bangladesh.

Hanoi FC midfielder Nguyen Quang Hai and Ho Chi Minh City FC forward Nguyen Cong Phuong previously produced videos for the #BreakTheChain campaign in which the pair called on people to follow guidelines set by health officials, and be patient and united in the fight against COVID-19.
