Highlights of Song Lam Nghe An's third consecutive victory
(Baonghean.vn) - Coach Pham Anh Tuan's team continued to have an excellent match to win against the opponent ranked 2nd on the rankings. With this 3rd consecutive victory, Song Lam Nghe An has risen to 11th place on the rankings.
3rd consecutive win
Having to face a strong team like Becamex Binh Duong, coach Pham Anh Tuan chose to play a solid defense on the home field and waited for the opportunity to launch lightning counterattacks.
This style of play was effective in neutralizing the attacking trio that was in high form on the team from the land of Thu. This was thanks to the excellence of goalkeeper Nguyen Van Viet and the aggressive play of defenders such as Vuong Van Huy, Tran Nam Hai and Tran Dinh Hoang.
Not only defending solidly, Song Lam Nghe An's defenders also had quality long passes that opened up dangerous counter-attacks. In those situations, the Nghe team scored the opening goal, veteran Tran Dinh Hoang was the one who had the accurate pass for striker Michael Olaha to head in the only goal of the match.
The Nigerian striker's golden goal helped Song Lam Nghe An have their third consecutive victory, thereby escaping the danger zone to rise to 11th place on the rankings.
Hopefully, coach Pham Anh Tuan and his team will continue to promote this excellent performance to get a favorable result in the difficult away match at Thien Truong Stadium.
Change of general has changed the fortunes
After the goalless draw with Ho Chi Minh City Club, many Nghe An fans were worried that the change in the coaching staff would not bring efficiency to their hometown team. That worry was even greater when striker Leazard Landy scored the opening goal for Khanh Hoa Club, putting Song Lam Nghe An in an extremely difficult situation.
However, at the most difficult time, coach Pham Anh Tuan revived the fighting spirit of the Nghe An team. An explosive second half against Khanh Hoa Club and two courageous matches against teams at the top of the rankings helped Song Lam Nghe An win three consecutive victories.
It can be said that coach Pham Anh Tuan has brought "cool rain" to Nghe An fans during the hot summer days.
Great performance by Le Dinh Long Vu
As usual, Michael Olaha was still the best player on the Nghe An team. Scoring the only goal of the match, creating opportunities for teammates, retreating to defend... the Nigerian striker was always the leader and support for his teammates at Song Lam Nghe An.
Along with Michael Olaha, young midfielder Le Dinh Long Vu also played excellently. The speed and technique of this 18-year-old player made Becamex Binh Duong's defense have a hard day's work. To be more precise, Le Dinh Long Vu could have scored a goal at the end of the second half. It can be said that this player wearing the number 38 shirt is a precious gem of Song Lam Nghe An in particular and Vietnamese football in general.
Hopefully, Le Dinh Long Vu will continue to make progress in the future to become an excellent player of Vietnamese football.
The return of "Vinh fire pan"
In this year’s season, Vinh Stadium did not have many spectators coming to watch. Even the matches in December only had a few hundred spectators coming to cheer for the home team, making Vinh Stadium desolate and cold. The reason comes from the poor performance of the Nghe An team and the harsh weather in Vinh city.
However, with the recent good results of the home team, Nghe An fans have come to the stadium in increasing numbers. In the last match, although the weather was quite hot, there were about 10,000 spectators coming to the stadium to watch and cheer. This is the largest number of spectators coming to Vinh Stadium this season.
The presence of a large audience at Vinh Stadium is a valuable source of encouragement for the players on the field. And if the Nghe An team continues to play well as they have in the past, the audience will come to the stadium in even greater numbers to turn Vinh Stadium into a fiery furnace like before.
