Commentator Quang Huy: 'V.League 2020 will be a pivotal year for Song Lam Nghe An'
Trung Kien - July 4, 2020 11:20
(Baonghean.vn) – According to the perspective of two veteran commentators Quang Huy and Quang Tung, SLNA will find it difficult to excel in V.League 2020 with a squad of young players, but this will be a pivotal season for the Nghe An team to set bigger goals in the near future.
Before the 8th round of V.League 2020, SLNA has 11 points, 3 wins, 2 draws, 2 losses and is ranked 5th on the V.League rankings. However, before that, the Nghe An team with many players born in 1999 had 5 consecutive clean sheets and was unbeaten, sitting comfortably at the top.
In the Sports Shop program, commentator Quang Huy commented: “Watching recent youth tournaments, SLNA players showed maturity, so I was not too surprised to see them have a resounding match at Hang Day Stadium against Hanoi. However, for me personally, there probably won’t be many matches like that this season.
Basically, SLNA still needs more time for the young players to mature. I feel that they are currently lacking in many positions, so good matches like the win over Hanoi are only a few matches, it is impossible to maintain.

What SLNA needs now is a more energetic style of play. Although they did not concede a goal in the first 5 matches, the way the Nghe An team plays is still not eye-catching. I think SLNA's leadership needs to make adjustments to make the playing style more energetic, attracting the audience back to the home stadium. If they can do one of those things, next season SLNA will have enough stability to return to the medal competition position.
From the perspective of commentator Quang Tung: "Although they have just experienced losses, I think there are more positive signs for SLNA. Because after each period when they lose people, bleed players, there is a new generation of players promoted.
There were doubts, there were worries but in the end there were achievements that were enough to satisfy. SLNA is now the only team that has never been relegated since being promoted in 1984. So, they have a tradition that is not easy to maintain in Vietnamese football. It is very difficult to have a continuation.

As for SLNA, I believe that they will have their own “voice, language” or in other words, the Nghe quality in the veins of the people who play football in Nghe An, from the workers to the players. After this generation, they advise each other and make arrangements, so that is the reason why when money and economy are not enough, and they cannot retain their good players, SLNA can still develop a new generation of players.
“After a few years of sloppiness, it seems that the story and the system are arranged in a more orderly manner and they trust, dare to do, dare to believe in what they have. In fact, at this time, I do not dare to think that SLNA is a good team, but this is a team that still maintains its own character. That character, no matter what, is still a symbol of the Vietnam National Championship.
I think that SLNA in recent years have been playing sparingly to keep their position, but with the spirit of Nghe An people, they are holding back and will not accept it forever. I have a feeling that this is the time when they are brewing something so that in the coming seasons they can "play big", commentator Quang Huy commented.
(Baonghean.vn) - Commenting on the Nghe An team after 5 matches in V.League 2020, especially the recent performance at Hang Day, commentator Ngo Quang Tung said that the secret to SLNA's initial success is that they dare to play fair football, not the "cut and slash" style like before.
