(Baonghean.vn) - Disappointment - that is the feeling not only of Nghe An fans but also of Song Lam Nghe An players. An unexpected "accident" has caused the efforts of coach Phan Nhu Thuat's students to go down the drain.

Regrettable defeat

Having to play away at Thong Nhat Stadium,Coach Phan Nhu Thuatproactively arranged a low formation combined with a slow playing style to get a favorable result. And the Song Lam Nghe An players followed the tactics that the coaching staff had set out quite well to make the home team deadlocked throughout the 90 minutes of the match.

However, an unexpected "accident" caused the efforts of the Nghe An players to go up in smoke. The unobserved pass back by young defender Vuong Van Huy accidentally turned into an own goal, causing Song Lam Nghe An to suffer their third defeat in the V.League this year.

With this loss, the Nghe An team could not improve their position on the rankings when they only had 6 points after 7 matches.

Praise the defense

Except for the unfortunate own goal, Song Lam Nghe An's defense had a very good match. They played with concentration and covered each other well, making it very difficult for Ho Chi Minh City Club's attack to find a way into goalkeeper Nguyen Van Viet's goal.

The midfield lacks creativity.

In the last 2 matches, the Nghe An team's midfield has supported the defense very well. However, in terms of attack, the Song Lam Nghe An midfield has not completed its mission. Coach Phan Nhu Thuat's team lacks sharp transitions or smooth coordination. This causes the players on the attack line of Song Lam Nghe An to often fall into a state of hunger for the ball.

It seems that the poor form of Tran Manh Quynh or the "disappearance" of young talent Dinh Xuan Tien has caused the midfield of the Nghe An team to lack creativity. Hopefully, in the upcoming match, Song Lam Nghe An will improve this to get a good result against the host Khanh Hoa Club.

Bad luck haunts Success and Song Lam Nghe An

If they had been luckier, the Nghe An team would have won. That was Raphael Success's tricky shot in the 90th minute but he couldn't beat goalkeeper Patrick Le Giang. And also from the situation right after that, Song Lam Nghe An had to accept the only goal of the match.

This is the third loss of the Nghe An team in the V.League this year and coincidentally, Success played in all three matches. It can be said that bad luck is preventing the Nigerian striker from having the desired performance at the tournament.Lam River Nghe An.
