Optimistic signals in the Thanh Hoa - SLNA match
(Baonghean.vn) - Not fielding their strongest lineup, having to play away from home and being behind early, coach Ngo Quang Truong and his team still left Thanh Hoa with 1 point in hand. SLNA was even the better team, thanks to the confidence, maturity and determination of the players, especially those who rarely played.
As predicted by experts and Nghe An football fans, entering this match, SLNA's coaching staff put on the field quite a few substitutes. In goal was Tran Van Tien, in defense was Thai Ba Sang, in attack were Tran Dinh Tien, Cao Xuan Thang and Ho Phuc Tinh.
It was thought that the goal conceded in the 4th minute (scored by Hoang Vu Samson) signaled a disastrous defeat for coach Ngo Quang Truong and his team in Thanh Hoa. However, since the moment Tran Van Tien had to pick the ball out of the net, SLNA has risen strongly, something rarely seen in them atV.League 2020.

Don't forget, up to now, Bui Dinh Chau and his teammates have only had one successful comeback. Ho Tuan Tai's equalizer 1-1 helped the Vinh team escape defeat against their brother Hong Linh Ha Tinh, in round 9, which took place in early July. The rest,SLNAboth had to accept defeat every time the opponent scored the first goal.
The more they play, the more their studentsCoach Ngo Quang Truongfurther demonstrated their ability. Not only did they not let Hoang Dinh Tung and his teammates overwhelm them and score more goals, the away team from Nghe An also gradually took control of the game and created a series of dangerous situations that threatened goalkeeper Nguyen Thanh Diep's goal. The goal by center-back Gustavo Santos in the 90+3 minute was an inevitable consequence.
SLNA should have scored quite early, if the players on the attack line had finished more accurately at the most delicious opportunities. The shot that hit the outside edge of the post by midfielder Tran Dinh Tien in the last seconds of the first half was a typical example. And it must also be said that the opposing team's center back Epassi had an extremely excellent match.

The following statistics have partly demonstrated the superiority ofNghe An football teamcompared to the Thanh team. In 90 minutes on Thanh Hoa field, coach Ngo Quang Truong's students had a ball control rate of 53% and launched 13 shots, while the home team's players had similar indicators of 43% and 7 shots (3 shots on target).
Witnessing the confidence, maturity and determination of Tran Van Tien, Thai Ba Sang, Mai Sy Hoang and Tran Dinh Tien in the recent match, Nghe An football fans have more reasons to feel more secure with their team, in case the pillars like Nguyen Van Hoang, Hoang Van Khanh, Tran Dinh Dong, Ho Tuan Tai... decide to leave Vinh stadium. It is true that "the bamboo is not old yet, the young shoots have grown"./.
