The only thing coach Quang Truong is not satisfied with after the victory over Da Nang

Phan Van Duc's only goal in the second half helped SLNA maintain their unbeaten streak, keep a clean sheet, get 7 points and move up the V.League 2020 rankings. Of course, coach Ngo Quang Truong has reason to be happy because of his players' fighting spirit.

In the press conference, SLNA head coach shared: “Winning against SHB Da Nang, I personally and the whole team are very happy. What I am most satisfied with is the way the players performed on the field. Although there were still a few shaky minutes at the beginning of the match, the fighting spirit was not lost, especially the foreign players and young players.

As you know, Phan Van Duc has grown up a lot, even at the national team level. The whole SLNA team appreciates his contributions. Any coach is the same, always having to find a replacement when a player is injured or has a card. SLNA's coaching staff always puts their trust in young players and I am satisfied with Thai Ba Sang replacing Van Khanh.

Actually, what Sosseh showed in today's match, he did not satisfy me. This year the tournament will be split into groups, our whole team set goals for each match. After the match, the result is still the most important.

Since the loss to Ba Ria - Vung Tau, I told the players that the gap between the teams is not that far apart, if we do not have spirit, determination and desire, we will not bring good results."

Finally, what coach Quang Truong is most dissatisfied with is the performance of the strikers. He said: “I am still not satisfied with the ability to take advantage of opportunities and convert them into goals. We have to improve this in the upcoming matches. Anyway, this victory is very meaningful for us for the next stage.”

On the away team side, Coach Le Huynh Duc pointed out the reason for SHB Da Nang’s defeat: “Up until now, it has not been easy to beat SLNA at Vinh Stadium. This time too, we are very confident before the match, at least it will be a draw because we created many opportunities, controlled the match better. SLNA had fewer shots but scored.

However, SHB Da Nang has to pay the price for attacking a lot but not scoring. In recent matches, our foreign strikers are having problems finishing and cannot find a common voice. Not only them, but it seems that foreign strikers who have just arrived in V.League have not really integrated into the playing style.

Besides, head coach Le Huynh Duc shared: “Our strikers did not take advantage of the weakness in SLNA’s defense. The quality of the pitch has improved a lot. Compared to my time, it is very different, but at this time the Vinh pitch is still quite thick, the ball moves quite slowly, affecting our passes.”

With this defeat, SHB Da Nang still has no results in V.League 2020 after 3 matches. Meanwhile, SLNA has 2 wins, 1 draw and is in the top group of the rankings, full of confidence before the away trip to Thanh Hoa.

(Baonghean.vn) - It seemed that the absence of Van Khanh caused many difficulties for SLNA's defense, but Phan Van Duc's shining moment and a determined spirit helped the Nghe An team win a minimal victory against SHB Da Nang in round 3 of V.League 2020.
