Football review FLC Thanh Hoa vs SLNA: Home team determined to regain image

Recently, FLC Thanh Hoa has attracted great attention from both fans and experts. The team has been shopping heavily, upgrading its squad and with Minh Tuan, Xuan Thanh or existing faces such as Van Thang, Hoang Thinh, Trong Hoang, Van Binh, they are considered a "miniature" Vietnam national team.

Despite having the best quality squad in V.League, their performance in the early stages of the season was not stable. The 0-1 loss to Quang Nam FC made many eyes doubt the organization, sharpness and efficiency in the playing style of the Thanh team. The defeat to the defending champion made FLC Thanh Hoa wake up and now, when playing at home, they have no other choice but to beat SLNA to regain the trust of the fans.

The task of winning 3 points against the Thanh team this afternoon is predicted to be not easy at all because on the other side of the battle line is a very even squad of players, especially when the away team has completed two foreign player slots Olaha-Osmar. Coach Nguyen Duc Thang's team is showing that they are a formidable obstacle for the "big" teams. Moreover, recently, young faces of SLNA have joined the national team and have progressed very quickly such as Van Duc and Xuan Manh, helping the Nghe team play a very sharp counter-attacking defense. Not to mention, the best passer in V.League, Khac Ngoc, has shown his leadership role, leading the way of playing, making SLNA even more formidable.

A match that promises to be very attractive and difficult for both sides. Coach Marian Mihail's team has home field advantage to believe in the final victory!
