After finishing the qualifying round with a convincing performance, U17 Song Lam Nghe An had a 5-day break. In order to prepare the players thoroughly in all aspects, right after the match, the coaching staff of U17 Song Lam Nghe An moved the team to Hung Yen.

Here, the team had 3 training sessions, which will help the Nghe An players reach their best score before entering the final round. Sharing about the preparation process for the difficult matches ahead, the coach of U17 Song Lam Nghe An said: “The end of the qualifying round is close to the final round, so the coaching staff also gave exercises to maintain the physical strength, as well as the excitement of the athletes. Up to now, the athletes' spirit is very good. The injured players have fully recovered. We are ready to enter the first match in the final round.”

In the opening match of Group B, the 2023 National U17 Finals, taking place at 2:00 p.m. on March 10, U17 Song Lam Nghe An will face U17 Khanh Hoa. In the qualifying round, U17 Khanh Hoa ranked second in Group D, winning 5 matches, drawing 1 match and losing 2 matches. With what this team has shown, experts believe that Khanh Hoa has a chance to create a surprise in this group.

Before the opening match, coach Phan Tien Hoai was cautious when talking about his opponents. “In the final round, all teams are strong. These are the teams that ranked first and second in the qualifying round. With Khanh Hoa, we have carefully studied their playing style and their players. The coaching staff of U17 Song Lam Nghe An will try to find a way to limit the strengths that the opponent possesses. Besides, we will exploit the points where we can score goals” - coach Phan Tien Hoai said.

In the matches of Group B, the National U17 Finals, the teams will have to compete on artificial turf. This causes some difficulties for U17 Song Lam Nghe An, because before that the team only played on natural grass.

Faced with this disadvantage, the Nghe An coach said: “The artificial turf and natural turf are different. Our team is used to playing on natural turf, but now having to play on artificial turf makes it a bit difficult for the players. This turf has a different bounce and passing force than natural turf, so it affects the players' feeling of playing. Besides, when playing on artificial turf in hot weather like today, it will make the players lose more energy.”

Also talking about the above difficulties, Le Dinh Long Vu - midfielder of U17 Song Lam Nghe An, player of U17 Vietnam said: "Playing at 2:00 p.m. in sunny weather like today, the field surface is very hot, which makes the players' feet easily blistered. Besides, the artificial turf surface is a bit hard, so it somewhat affects the team's playing style. We hope that the audience will continue to support and accompany U17 SLNA".

However, the U17 Song Lam Nghe An team is still determined to achieve positive results in the opening match of the 2023 National U17 Finals. "When stepping onto the field, the coaching staff will encourage the players to focus on the game, play with all their heart and try to achieve the best results in the opening match of the finals" - Head coach of U17 Song Lam Nghe An shared.

With an impressive performance in the qualifying round and careful preparation before entering the final round, hopefully U17 Song Lam Nghe An will have a successful season, bringing pride to Nghe An fans.
