'Tips' for SLNA to get points against FLC Thanh Hoa

(Baonghean.vn) - Up to now, FLC Thanh Hoa and Hai Phong are two teams that have never lost at home. With the current force, how SLNA can get points when leaving FLC Thanh Hoa is a problem for coach Quang Truong and his students?

After the thrilling 2-1 victory over HAGL in the 8th round, the whole Thanh Hoa region was "possessed", the dream of the 2016 V-League championship after the crushing 2-5 defeat against XSKT.Can Tho returned. Thanh Hoa's audience considered SLNA to be just a small challenge for the FLC Thanh Hoa team in the race with Hai Phong and 3 points was unquestionable. Technical Director Le Thuy Hai, more than anyone, understood that the 2 "accidents" on the Tam Ky and Can Tho fields against QNK. Quang Nam and XSKT.Can Tho could hardly be repeated because the Nghe An team did not have such personnel in their hands.

QNK. Quang Nam has two wingers with very flexible mobility. Dinh Thanh Trung and Van Thuan play the ball for the "double-barreled cannon" Suleiman, Felix; the audience of Nghe An has witnessed how good the "bull" Suleiman is in pressing and fighting in the air. Coach Quang Bao of XSKT.Can Tho is skillful when he saw that Van Bakel was injured and could not play, so he directed to use many long passes like "pouring oil" into the space between the center-back and the FLC Thanh Hoa goalkeeper. As for Patiyo and Oseni, in addition to their ability to seize scoring opportunities, they also have the ability to play the ball quite well, causing FLC Thanh Hoa's center-back Xuan Hung to only be able to encourage goalkeeper Thanh Thang to try to get the ball into the net. Looking at the current SLNA squad, there is no face that can make FLC Thanh Hoa worry, including Phi Son.

Returning to the derby, coach Quang Truong must not lose first, because facing the "silver-haired wizard" Le, if he concedes first, SLNA's chance of turning the game around is almost zero. FLC Thanh Hoa's right winger Le Quoc Phuong is in quite good form, with an extremely good free kick ability, so it's time for Manh Hung to score and redeem himself in the role of left-back. Ironically, Dinh Tung is also the type of player that SLNA's defense, especially Dinh Hoang, is quite afraid of. This player often dribbles the ball in a very annoying style.

Fans will see an interesting confrontation on the right wing of SLNA with Dinh Hoang - Phi Son and Tien Thanh - Dinh Tung, in which the home team will be considered to have a chance to win. There is nothing better than playing 4-3-2-1 with Ngoc Hai and Baba being the long-range interceptors, supporting the defense against Omar's penetrating play and restraining Ivan Firer. Because Hoang Thinh plays quite freely, Ngoc Hai will be the only player on SLNA's side who can stick to the midfielder who has one of the best physical strength among current Vietnamese players.

In this match, when Phi Son is showing signs of losing his sharpness, he needs a young player to compete with Dinh Dong on the left wing, so Van Vinh will hardly have a chance to enter the field. The attack will be left to Odah, Phi Son and possibly Xuan Thang, the player who last year had the chance to head the ball into To Vinh Loi's net. Because the domestic central defenders of FLC Thanh Hoa are not good at pressing and controlling tall foreign players with short-distance breaking speed.

Compared to the match with B.Binh Duong, SLNA's away match at FLC Thanh Hoa's stadium this time is much easier. SLNA's coaching staff and players must have the determination not to fear their opponents to hope to get points against FLC Thanh Hoa, who are flying high like a kite after investing tens of billions of dong in football.
