Song Lam Nghe An won against The Cong Viettel to successfully avoid relegation. So, what were the turning points that helped the Nghe An team achieve that achievement?

Tran Manh Quynh's equalizer

In a disjointed match, unable to create any chances towards Hong Linh Ha Tinh's goal, many Nghe An fans are sure that their hometown team will have to accept defeat against their neighboring team. As a result, they will almost certainly have to play in the Play-off.

However, from a chaotic situation in the penalty area, midfielder Tran Manh Quynh quickly scored an equalizer in the 90+3 minute. This goal kindled a little hope for the home team and also contributed to keeping Hong Linh Ha Tinh in the relegation race.

The return of Tran Dinh Hoang

When V.League returned after a break, veteran Tran Dinh Hoang was not in the best physical condition. This caused Song Lam Nghe An's defense to not play very solidly.

In the match against The Cong Viettel, the player born in 1991 played from the start and played very well to help Song Lam Nghe An keep a clean sheet. In particular, Tran Dinh Hoang's save on the goal line in the 3rd minute can be considered a goal for the Nghe team.

Michael Olaha's brace

Striker Michael Olaha carrying the team is a common story for Song Lam Nghe An this season. And in the match against The Cong Viettel, the Nigerian striker once again shined to bring victory to the Nghe An team.

Two beautiful long-range shots by striker Michael Olaha defeated goalkeeper Xuan Son, thereby helping Song Lam Nghe An gain just enough points to successfully stay in the league.

The excellence of goalkeeper Trinh Xuan Hoang

Dong A Thanh Hoa's goalkeeper had an excellent afternoon. Reasonable entry and exit, quick reflexes and bravery of goalkeeper Trinh Xuan Hoang discouraged the strikers of Hong Linh Ha Tinh.

It can be said that the 23-year-old goalkeeper's excellence is an important part of Song Lam Nghe An's relegation success this season.

Jairo Rodrigues' goal

The goal of center back Jairo Rodrigues in the 82nd minute was also one of the indirect reasons helping the Nghe An team stay in the league.

Because if the team from the Mountain City only gets a draw against Hai Phong Club, all three teams Song Lam Nghe An, Hong Linh Ha Tinh and LPBank Hoang Anh Gia Lai will have the same number of points. At that time, the team from Nghe An will be the ones to participate in the Play off match due to inferior sub-index.

Fortunately, a goal by central defender Jairo Rodrigues sealed the score at 2-1, bringing victory to Mr. Duc's team.

It can be said that Song Lam Nghe An's relegation achievement in the 2023/2024 season is due to the efforts of the players and coaching staff, but also partly due to luck.

Hopefully, in the new season, Song Lam Nghe An will play better so that fans will not have to experience "heart-breaking" moments like this season.
