Necessary silence for SLNA
(Baonghean.vn) - V.League 2021 has officially been suspended due to the effects of Covid-19. Compared to the remaining 13 teams, SLNA is probably the team that benefits the most from this break.
On May 6, after meeting and carefully assessing the impact of the situation,Covid-19 epidemic, VFF and VPF decided to temporarily suspend V.League from the 13th round. This is a force majeure measure and for the common good of the community at this time. According to the original plan, the 13th round of matches will be played at the same time at 5:00 p.m. on May 7.
JobV.League 2021Once again indefinitely postponing will have a significant impact on the teams. When the tournament returns, the competition density of the teams will be denser, especially for the teams that have passed the qualifying round of the 2021 National Cup.

However, if viewed from a more positive perspective, this is a necessary break for teams like SLNA. After 12 rounds, the Nghe An team is at the bottom of the table with only 10 points after 12 rounds. Coach Nguyen Huy Hoang's team will certainly compete for relegation in phase 2.
Opponents in the 13th round ofSLNAIt is Hanoi - the nemesis of Van Duc and his teammates. Since 2016, SLNA has lost to Hanoi FC at home. With such poor form as now, the Nghe An team is afraid that they will not be able to escape another defeat.
Furthermore, Hanoi FC is also very hungry for victory to have a chance to enter the championship race in phase 2. In addition, Quang Hai and his teammates also hope that the four teams above them, including Quang Ninh (against HAGL), Nam Dinh (against Da Nang), Thanh Hoa (against Saigon FC), Binh Duong (against Ho Chi Minh City) will lose points.
In many aspects, Hanoi FC is clearly superior to SLNA. On the contrary, the possibility of the Vinh home team winning against the visitors from the capital is quite fragile. Obviously, compared to the opponent Hanoi FC, SLNA is the team that feels luckier when round 13 of phase 1 of V.League 2021 was postponed due to the complicated situation of the Covid-19 epidemic.

The V.League break is a necessary break for coach Nguyen Huy Hoang and his players. The Nghe An team will have more time to look back at themselves, stabilize their mentality to move towards the next "life and death" stage of the season. And more than anyone else, coach Nguyen Huy Hoang must make the most of this "free time" to put his mark on the team's playing style.
In addition, the upcoming break will help SLNA welcome the return of Hoang Van Khanh, Igor Jelic, Nguyen Sy Nam, Dang Van Lam, Tran Dinh Tien, Ho Phuc Tinh, Peter Samuel... With the service of the strongest force, SLNA has reason to believe in a positive phase 2.
Obviously, Coach Nguyen Huy Hoang's role as a "substitute" at SLNA put him under a lot of pressure. The match against Thanh Hoa in round 12 of V.League 2021 marked Coach Nguyen Huy Hoang's first match as head coach of SLNA and it was a match that did not go as expected.
Despite changing the coach, the image of a shaky team is still there. They still cannot overcome their inherent weaknesses with a series of individual mistakes and monotonous playing style. Especially the over-dependence on Phan Van Duc is killing them.
The 2021 V.League break will be a golden time forCoach Nguyen Huy Hoangprepare for a revolution in the playing style at SLNA, reduce the pressure on a star and maximize the potential of foreign players and young players. After all, coach Nguyen Huy Hoang has only had his first match as head coach and there is still a lot ahead./.
