4 hot spots to decide the match between Viettel Club and Song Lam Nghe An

1. Nguyen Hoang Duc and Mario

In the very first match of V.LeagueMariohas left a big impression on Nghe An fans. The simple but effective playing style of the Spanish midfielder has helped to connect the ball rotation and regulate the tempo of the match, he was the one who had the ball steal that led to Tran Dinh Tien's masterpiece. With those marks, Mario was selected for the typical squad of round 12.

The person who was also voted for the central midfielder position in the typical lineup of the last round was midfielder Nguyen Hoang Duc. A goal and an assist in the match against SHB Da Nang were enough to speak of the excellence of the 2022 Vietnamese Golden Ball. The confrontation with Hoang Duc will be a great test for midfielder Mario's class and it is also the key to deciding the fate of the match.

2. Olaha and Nguyen Thanh Binh

Olaha's return from suspension brings much hope to the Nghe An team's attack. With good personal skills and a strong physical foundation, Olaha will help Song Lam Nghe An's attack become more mobile. Returning to Hang Day, Olaha will face another Vietnamese national player, Nguyen Thanh Binh - who has just returned after having to sit out the match against SHB Da Nang due to physical reasons. Thanh Binh's return in this match will help Viettel's defense become more solid. However, with Olaha's desire to score to make up for his mistakes, young center-back Thanh Binh will certainly have a very hard day at work.

3. Geovane and Que Ngoc Hai

This is Ngoc Hai's first match against his old club.Viettelafter saying goodbye at the end of last season to return to his hometown team. Under the command of this national team center-back, the Song Lam Nghe An defense played very well and was the fulcrum for the initial successes of this season. Facing a striker like Geovane - Que Ngoc Hai and his teammates had to concentrate highly because this striker is capable of operating independently and taking advantage of opportunities very well.

With 5 goals, the Brazilian striker is currently second in the list of top scorers of V.League 2022. Just a moment of carelessness, Geovane will make the Nghe team pay the price. An interesting statistic is that Geovane Magno has never scored in matches against Que Ngoc Hai. Hopefully, the next match will see the midfielder from Dien Chau continue to have a match to lock down this explosive player born in 1994.

4. Tran Nguyen Manh and Nguyen Van Hoang

With goalkeeper Dang Van Lam returning to Vietnam to play for Topenland Binh Dinh club, the competition for the goalkeeper position of the Vietnam national team has become more attractive. In nearly half of the season, bothNguyen Manhand Van Hoang have both performed very well in the club's jersey. However, it seems that goalkeeper Van Hoang is better than his senior, when he has only conceded 5 goals and kept 7 clean sheets in 10 matches, while Nguyen Manh has conceded 6 goals and kept 4 clean sheets in 8 matches.

With what he has shown in the past season, goalkeeper Nguyen Van Hoang is completely worthy of being given a chance by coach Park Hang-seo to join the Vietnam national team in the upcoming training session. The match on August 19 will be an exciting match between the two best goalkeepers in the V.League today.
