'Civil war' between Song Lam Nghe An training center in the National Second Division
(Baonghean.vn) - At 4:00 p.m. on April 14, at Kon Tum Stadium, the match between the home team and Bac Ninh will take place in round 4 of Group A, National Second Division 2024. This is a match with the presence of quite a lot of players who have trained at the training center of Song Lam Nghe An.
Currently, after the first 3 rounds, Kon Tum has 6 points with 2 wins and 1 loss. Meanwhile, their opponent Bac Ninh has also won 6 points after 2 convincing victories against PVF Youth (2-0) and Hanoi Youth (3-0). Compared to Kon Tum, Bac Ninh has played 1 less match.

Therefore, the upcoming confrontation between the two teams at Kon Tum Stadium will be very noteworthy. Not only is it a match between two candidates for two tickets to play in the National First Division next season, but it is also an opportunity to compete between players who are and have been on the payroll of Song Lam Nghe An and are present on both sides of the battle line.
On the Kon Tum side are Chu Van Tan, Nguyen Van Duc, Nguyen Mai Hoang, Ho Viet Manh and Thai Bao Trung. Notably, in the coaching staff of the Tay Nguyen team, there are two familiar faces to Nghe An football fans: coach Chu Ngoc Canh and assistant Tran Duc Cuong.
In the past, Chu Ngoc Canh was in the same generation as Duong Hong Son, Nguyen Hai Nam, Nguyen Cong Manh, Phan Thanh Hoan... at the Song Lam Nghe An training center, and Tran Duc Cuong was the goalkeeper of the Vinh home team in 2 seasons: 2014 and 2015. The goal of Chu Ngoc Canh and Tran Duc Cuong is to contribute to bringing Kon Tum to play in the V.League arena.

Similar to Kon Tum, Bac Ninh's squad for the 2024 National Second Division also includes many faces from Nghe An. In addition to coach Ngo Quang Truong, there are a series of players who have trained at the Song Lam Nghe An training center and played for their hometown team, such as Nguyen Quang Tinh, Au Van Hoan, Dau Thanh Phong and Le Van Hung.
Up to this point, all 4 faces mentioned above have been on the field in the last 2 matches. Midfielder Nguyen Quang Tinh alone has 1 goal, coming from a beautiful free kick that made the net of the visiting team Tre Ha Noi, which took place on April 8. With the contribution of the "Nghe team", Bac Ninh is making opponents afraid.
Certainly, the match between Kon Tum and Bac Ninh will receive the attention of Nghe An football fans. Hopefully, the players of the two teams will contribute to an eye-catching match. It is known that former coach of the Vietnam National Team Park Hang-seo will also be at Kon Tum Stadium as a senior advisor of the Kinh Bac team./.
