Commentator Quang Huy: 'SLNA finds it increasingly difficult to stay in the league'

In the first match, SLNA played with one less man against Binh Dinh because captain Van Khanh received a red card. However, Phan Van Duc and his teammates still played with great determination and earned a valuable point. In the second away match in Pleiku, SLNA continued to play with 10 men because Thai Ba Sang received a second yellow card and had to leave the field before losing 1-2.

The third round, lacking many key players, with all 3 foreign players, SLNA had a very poor performance and left Thong Nhat Stadium empty-handed when losing 0-1. The first leg of V.League 2021 has 13 rounds and 10 matches left to play.SLNAhoping to improve performance and avoid falling into the group of 8 teams that have to compete for relegation.

In the program “Champion”, commentator Vu Quang Huy commented: “I think that in recent seasons, SLNA has gotten used to having to eat and lose players every year. They are forced to call back players who have lost their form and then return, have to promote young players and patch things up here and there. In recent years, SLNA has gotten used to having to compete to avoid relegation but they have all finished safely.

However, this year I feel that their ability to stay in the league is becoming more and more difficult, more and more fragile. This season, I put SLNA in the top 4 teams with the potential to be dangerous. The teams are moving, but SLNA, despite their great efforts to turn things around, still has dedicated players but is falling further and further behind. SLNA will have to be very careful because they have never been relegated once."

Commentator Dang Phuong Nam analyzed: “SLNA has been having difficulties for many seasons. However, the Nghe An team still has its own qualities. We see that all their domestic players are from Nghe An. They still know how to join hands to overcome difficulties. Actually, SLNA's playing style this year is not bad. The first two matches had bad results because they had to play with one less player early on and played very well.

However, in the last match, they played with all their players against Saigon FC, revealing many problems, being at a disadvantage from start to finish. It is true that SLNA is having problems with foreign players.rookie Bruno HenriqueHe has been playing very badly recently and has not yet integrated into the team's style of play. That will be the problem that coach Ngo Quang Truong must find a solution to."

Obviously, SLNA is heavily dependent on the ability to lead the game.Phan Van Ducon the attack line. But when this player is blocked, the Nghe An team's ability to score is very weak. Foreign players like Peter Samuel or Bruno Henrique have not scored any goals yet and this is one of the main reasons.

From another perspective, experts believe that SLNA's midfield is the weakest point of the Nghe An team when the central midfielders cannot cover the midfield, support the defense from afar, and distribute the ball to the forwards. From now until the return of V.League 2021 is a valuable time for SLNA to stabilize and return to the race.
