(Baonghean.vn) - The draw result did not satisfy both coaches. Coach Nguyen Duc Thang felt that this was an acceptable result while on the other side, the Korean coach also considered 1 point not too bad against a team like SLNA.

Coach Nguyen Duc Thang praised his students and Que Ngoc Hai.

"Today, my students played with great effort and created some opportunities but could not take advantage of them. In my opinion, Que Ngoc Hai played well for Viettel and limited the range of SLNA strikers, including Olaha." – SLNA head coach opened the press conference.

Coach Duc Thang thanked the fans who came to the stadium in large numbers to cheer for SLNA: "I believe the fans are satisfied with what we showed on the field. Getting 1 point away from home is also something to be satisfied with."

When asked about Phan Van Duc's injury recovery status, coach Duc Thang could not give a definite answer: "It is difficult to say anything in advance. Currently, the doctors are still helping Phan Van Duc to have the best recovery. It all depends on his own efforts. Phan Van Duc may return in a week, but it could also be 2 or 3 weeks."

After the unfortunate draw against Viettel, SLNA got 15 points and continued to rank 3rd on the overall table regardless of the results of the 2 late matches of round 8.

Currently, SLNA is only 1 point behind the second-placed team, Saigon FC. However, coach Nguyen Duc Thang believes that the Nghe An team's ranking can be even better when the main players return.

"The V.League has only gone through 8 rounds. In the coming time, when some key players return from injury and are in their best form, we hope to improve our ranking," coach Duc Thang confidently said.

The first question the Korean coach received was about Vietnam national team captain Que Ngoc Hai when this player just returned after being suspended for 4 matches.

"Que Ngoc Hai is an experienced player with good skills, but because of the 4-match penalty, he has a psychological burden. Ngoc Hai works very hard on the training ground. Recently, he has received a lot of public attention. I hope he will develop himself further" - Coach Lee Heung Sil

The Korean strategist also said that Ngoc Hai needs to be careful with every action while being the captain of the Vietnamese team: "He has many fans. I also told him to be careful on the field, even with the smallest action."

After a goalless draw against SLNA, Viettel has 10 points after 8 rounds, helping the team stay away from the relegation group, but still below expectations at the beginning of the season.

Coach Lee Heung Sil reaffirmed that he still needs more time: "I am under pressure to help Viettel improve their performance. I need a whole process. It's a pity that we couldn't score. I hope the attack will try harder," said Park's compatriot before leaving the press conference room.

In the next round, Viettel will continue to play at home to welcome HAGL, while SLNA will travel to Hai Phong to play as guests at Lach Tray Stadium.
