Song Lam Nghe An fans in Hanoi send meaningful message to their hometown team

On the afternoon of December 8, Song Lam Nghe An fans in Hanoi met to prepare for the plan to cheer on coach Phan Nhu Thuat and his team in the match against Hanoi FC. It had been a long time since the children of Nghe An had the opportunity to meet each other. They cherished each flag of the team, meticulously painted each letter on the banner. For them, the march to Hang Day Stadium was not just a match. This was where they could show their love for football, their love for their hometown team, and especially the bond between children living far away from home.

Mr. Tran Anh Dung - Head of the Song Lam Nghe An Supporters' Association in the North revealed the plan: "We have met to discuss and divide the specific work for the coming days. Currently, we have prepared about 300 small flags, 5-6 large flags, drums and trumpets, along with many ribbons and logos for the fans. However, this number is still a bit small and we have had to mobilize more from the Song Lam Nghe An Supporters' Association in Vinh to bring 100-200 more flags to Hanoi. Before entering the stadium to cheer, the Supporters' Association also plans to parade through some streets of Hanoi. We really hope to be able to "cover" Hang Day Stadium in gold on the evening of December 10 to fuel the players."

During the meeting to prepare for the upcoming match, there were also very special fans who shared about their journey with their hometown team. Because for them, it is not only the love of football, but above all, the love of their hometown, and every time they go to the field, they are able to live in a bustling atmosphere, and to hear the Nghe accent is happiness.

Mr. Tran Dinh Van - from Thanh Chuong, spent his last day off to gather with his fellow countrymen to prepare for the upcoming match to cheer for the team, sharing: “My love for football was inspired and nurtured by my grandfather. Since I was a child, he took me to watch football matches at all the village festivals, commune and district tournaments. Having been involved with my hometown football since I was young, even though the team has gone through many ups and downs, I have always persevered with the players. Because it is not just a normal love for football. For me, it is also a love for my hometown, a close family bond.”

Also choosing to take a leave to accompany the Supporters' Association and the players, Anh Xuan Thai from Anh Son said: "I had time to accompany the Song Lam Nghe An players competing in Ho Chi Minh City. For me, the cheering spirit of the Song Lam Nghe An fans is very passionate and enthusiastic everywhere. But when I came to Hanoi, that spirit seemed to increase many times over. When I witnessed the image of the streets glowing yellow leading to the stadium, the stands filled with cheers in Nghe An dialect, I felt like I was returning home."

In addition, the enthusiastic fans of the Nghe An team also want to send the players a meaningful message.

Mr. Tran Anh Dung - Spiritual leader of Song Lam Nghe An fans in the North proudly shared: “Everything is ready. But we want to send a meaningful message to the players. This is a banner that we wrote by hand. The words on it also represent the words that the fans want to say. Although Song Lam Nghe An has not played well this season, we hope that the players will fight with all their might. Song Lam Nghe An fans will always be with you, whether at Vinh Stadium or any other stadium.”

"A successful team does not come from an individual but from the solidarity of the whole team. We believe that the Song Lam Nghe An players will give their all for the flag and the shirt. Coming to the field this time may be a difficult match. But we, the enthusiastic fans of Song Lam Nghe An, always believe that the team will play their best. No matter what the result is, we will always be with you," added Mr. Tran Xuan Quyet (Thanh Chuong).

The match between Song Lam Nghe An and Hanoi FC will take place at 7:15 p.m. on December 10 at Hang Day Stadium.
