Notable confrontations between Song Lam Nghe An and PVF-CAND

Goalkeeper Cao Van Binh and Hoang Vu Samson

Cao Van Binh is one of the promising young goalkeepers of Vietnamese football. His excellent performances in the U23 Vietnam team are the clearest proof. That is also the reason why the Board of DirectorsLam River Nghe Anagreed to allow goalkeeper Nguyen Van Viet to join The Cong Viettel.

This season, as the number 1 choice in goal for the Nghe An team, Cao Van Binh must quickly seize the opportunity to prove himself. The match against PVF-CAND is one of those opportunities. The excellent performances of this 20-year-old goalkeeper will be the premise for Song Lam Nghe An to have a favorable result in the opening match.

One of Cao Van Binh's formidable threats is veteran Hoang Vu Samson. Despite his advanced age, the Nigerian striker's goal-scoring instinct, positioning ability and intelligence are still very scary. Last season, Hoang Vu Samson had 5 goals and 1 assist after 23 appearances.

It can be said that Hoang Vu Samson is the real test for the reflexes and judgment of the young goalkeeper from Nghe An.

Ho Khac Ngoc and Nguyen Xuan Bac

Experience versus youth – that is the highlight of the match between Ho Khac Ngoc and Nguyen Xuan Bac. Among them, veteran midfielder Ho Khac Ngoc is the one who has proven himself in V.League with his tight maneuvers, razor-sharp passes and even dangerous long-range shots. It can be said that this midfielder born in 1992 is the soul of the Song Lam Nghe An midfield in the upcoming match.

On the contrary, Xuan Bac is a typical representative of the new generation of Vietnamese football. At the age of 22, this midfielder has made a strong impression in the U23 Vietnam team thanks to his intelligent playing style and ability to control the tempo of the match. Notably, Xuan Bac has a playing style quite similar to Khac Ngoc, promising to create a tactical "boxing" match right in the middle of the field. Whoever has better control will bring a big advantage to the home team.

Michael Olaha and AlainEyenga

In terms of physical strength and aerial ability, Alain Eyenga is one of the top central defenders in the V.League. The presence of the Cameroonian central defender brings great peace of mind to the defense ofPVF-CANDBesides, Alain Eyenga is also a dangerous option in set-piece attacks.

However, the former midfielder of Quang Nam Club is quite slow in handling. This is the weakness that striker Michael Olaha will exploit in the upcoming match. The Nigerian striker possesses the speed to break through and the ability to move intelligently, enough to exploit the gaps behind the defense. If he does not receive timely support from his teammates, Eyenga can completely be "torn apart" by Olaha's defense. This promises to be the most fierce duel of the match.

Carlos Enrique andJosephMpande

This is a fairly even match. The balance comes from age, height and weight. However, Joseph Mpande is the one who has the advantage because he is very familiar with the playing environment in V.League. The years of fighting for Hai Phong Club and Nam Dinh Blue Steel will help the Ugandan midfielder a lot. In the new PVF-CAND shirt, Joseph Mpande is the hope to help the rookie V.League team achieve good results.

Meanwhile, Carlos Enrique has just arrived in Vietnam. The Colombian midfielder is struggling to get used to the new environment, and even the possibility of playing in the next match is still uncertain. However, with his class and experience in playing in the top tournaments in South America, Carlos Enrique promises to increase the fighting power of the midfield of Song Lam Nghe An.

Hopefully, in the next match,Carlos Enriquewill be in the best physical condition, thereby, being able to have a successful debut in the new shirt.

From the goal to the attack, each match in the opening match between Song Lam Nghe An and PVF-CAND contains dramatic and surprising elements. Youth will meet experience, speed will confront strength, and creativity will challenge judgment. Any confrontation can become a turning point that decides the final result.
