Notable confrontations in the match between Song Lam Nghe An and MerryLand Quy Nhon Binh Dinh

Mario Zebic and Alan Alexandre

After the departure of Captain Que Ngoc Hai, Nghe An fans were worried that their hometown team would not have a real commander in the defense. However, after Mario Zebic's past performances, that worry has been somewhat dispelled. Calm, smart playing and good at defending high balls are the qualities of the Croatian center back. He is a solid support for the defense ofLam River Nghe Anin the process of rejuvenating the squad.

However, Mario Zebic will have to face a tough challenge in the form of Alan Alexandre of MerryLand Quy Nhon Binh Dinh. The Brazilian striker is having a dream start in Vietnam. After 8 matches, Alan Alexandre has 6 goals and 3 assists, an extremely impressive number. Speed, technique and diverse finishing ability are the strengths of this 26-year-old striker. Therefore, Mario Zebic and his teammates will have a tough day when facing the striker who used to play in the Brazilian Second Division.

Phan Ba ​​Quyen and Leonardo Artur

Like Alan Alexandre, Leonardo Artur of MerryLand Quy Nhon Binh Dinh is having excellent performances in V.League. After 8 matches, Leonardo Artur has scored 4 goals and has 3 assists. The excellence of the Brazilian duo has helped the team from Vo land to 2nd place in the V.League rankings. The good technique and tactical vision of the player who used to play for Corinthians Club (Brazil) helpsMerryLand Quy Nhon Binh Dinhhave many dangerous attacking situations. Therefore, locking down the explosive Leonardo Artur will be the first priority of the Nghe An team in the upcoming match.

And that task will be placed on the shoulders of young midfielder Phan Ba ​​Quyen of Song Lam Nghe An. This 21-year-old midfielder has played 7 matches for the Nghe team this season. Playing with dedication and confidence, Phan Ba ​​Quyen is like a shield in front of the Nghe team's defense. Hopefully, the midfielder born in 2002 will continue to promote his strengths in the upcoming match to help Song Lam Nghe An get the best results.

Michael Olaha and Dang Van Lam

The Nigerian striker is the most prominent factor of the Nghe An team in the past stage of the season. After 8 matches, Olaha has had 3 goals and 4 assists, a number that is enough to show the important role of this 27-year-old striker. In the upcoming match, the Nigerian striker will have to face a difficult challenge named Dang Van Lam of MerryLand Quy Nhon Binh Dinh.

In 8 confrontations with Lam "Western",Michael Olahahas only scored 2 goals. These are all goals scored during the time Dang Van Lam played at Hai Phong Club. Therefore, the striker of Song Lam Nghe An Club will have to be very careful about opportunities and luck to be able to defeat Dang Van Lam.

Especially when, the goalkeeper of the Vietnam National Team always has miraculous saves when playing against Song Lam Nghe An. One of them is the situation of blocking a hammer-like shot in the penalty area by defender Tran Dinh Hoang.

However, Nghe An fans can still hope as Dang Van Lam has just returned from injury and will not be in the best form. This will be an opportunity for Olaha and his teammates to penetrate the solid defense of the team from Vo land.

The match between Song Lam Nghe An and MerryLand Quy Nhon Binh Dinh will take place at 18:00 on February 18 at Vinh Stadium.
