Coach Duc Thang points out the reason why SLNA played without much intensity in Tam Ky.
(Baonghean.vn) - At Tam Ky Stadium, the Nghe An team started confidently and scored the opening goal in the 37th minute. However, SLNA could not maintain the initiative and allowed Quang Nam Club to equalize in the 72nd minute through Claudecir.

Speaking at the press conference, SLNA coach Nguyen Duc Thang expressed satisfaction at securing one point: “In football, scoring the opening goal but then allowing the opponent to equalize is regrettable. Playing away against Quang Nam FC was truly difficult, as they are a strong team in the V.League.”
Therefore, I am pleased with the point we earned and the performance of my players in this match. We played three matches in the National Cup and the V.League, so it was very difficult. The whole team put in a lot of effort and deserved the result today."

Witnessing Phan Văn Đức's excellent form, coach Nguyễn Đức Thắng expressed his satisfaction: “Whenever he gets the chance to play, Văn Đức only has two words in his head: football. He puts in a lot of effort in training and has been consistently scoring goals recently. Văn Đức's good form is good news for him and the SLNA team.”

Meanwhile, Quang Nam's coach Hoang Van Phuc expressed his regret at only securing one point: "In the first half, we controlled the game well before SLNA scored. In the second half, Quang Nam played better and created many opportunities. Unfortunately, my striker didn't perform well, only scoring one goal. I'm truly disappointed that we only managed a draw."
With this result, SLNA has 7 points after 8 rounds and remains second to last in the V.League 2018 standings, while Quang Nam remains in 10th place.
Tomorrow (May 21st), Coach Duc Thang and his team will not return to Nghe An but will travel directly to Pleiku to prepare for the match against HAGL on May 26th.
