This is the first time that a Vietnamese futsal player has been included in the list of nominees for the UMBRO Futsal Awards.

In 2018, Ho Van Y delivered exceptional performances at the AFC Futsal Club Championship as he contributed to Thai Son Nam finishing runner-up at the tournament. In addition to his impressive ability to catch the ball, it was Ho Van Y who scored the decisive goal to help the Vietnamese club defeat the title favorites, Nagoya Oceans of Japan, in the quarterfinals.

In the color of the national team, from a potential keeper, the 1997-born goalie has matured and surpassed veterans Ngo Dinh Thuan and Nguyen Van Huy to become the no. 1 choice of coach Miguel Rodrigo.
