Surprising statistics on the most 'fairplay' and 'ripped off' teams in V.League

(Baonghean.vn) - Looking at the list of the most "ugly" playing teams in V.League 2017, everyone will be surprised with SLNA and the famous fair playing team HAGL.

Topping the list of card kings is defender Nguyen Quoc Long of Saigon FC. After 17/25 matches on the field, the Hanoi player has 8 yellow cards and 1 red card. The red card he received was in the loss to SLNA at Thong Nhat Stadium. In that match, the home team had to play with 9 men when another player, Cao Van Trien, was also sent off.

In terms of yellow cards, FLC Thanh Hoa, XSKT Can Tho and Hai Phong have 57, 58 and 60 cards respectively. FLC Thanh Hoa is in the championship competition but has 19 players who have received cards.

The team with the fewest yellow cards is HAGL and Quang Nam with 33. However, surprisingly, Hoang Anh Gia is in the "Top" of receiving the most red cards in V.League after 25 rounds. Mr. Duc's team is famous for playing fair and condemning rough play, but 4 times HAGL players were sent off the field. Before round 24, HAGL already held this record.

The team with a smooth and smooth playing style like Hanoi is only behind the mountain town team in terms of red cards, the students of coach Chu Dinh Nghiem have been sent off the field 3 times. The leader in red cards is the "rebellious" team S. Khanh Hoa BVN with 5 cards, XSKT Can Tho deserves to be the "card king" of the 2017 season with 4 red cards. In terms of total cards up to round 25 of V.League, FLC Thanh Hoa has 59 cards, Hai Phong has 61 cards, XSKT Can Tho has 62 cards.

As V.League is almost over, there are 2 teams that have not received any red cards: Quang Nam and SLNA. The team is famous for its “tough and decisive” playing style, although it has received 49 yellow cards, it has never once faced a disadvantage in terms of numbers.

In particular, goalkeeper Nguyen Manh received a card once for reacting. Center back Que Ngoc Hai (21 matches) received the most cards in SLNA with 6 cards (average 0.3 cards/match), Hoang Van Khanh (22 matches) received 5 cards (average 0.2 cards/match).

Despite being a player with great flair, midfielder Khac Ngoc received 6 cards, most of which were for situations that did not deserve a card, such as reacting or wasting time. Not to mention the 3 rather unjust yellow cards that Phi Son received for the same reason. According to statistics, there were more than 10 cards that caused SLNA's coaching staff to react.

Playing 22 matches as a full-back, Pham Xuan Manh has only received 2 yellow cards. A player famous for "rude kicks" like Manh Hung has only received 1 yellow card. That shows that SLNA has played much more smoothly. The title of "Fairplay" team in October belongs to the Nghe An team, which is completely deserved. And that is also part of the reason why they have repeatedly dropped points regrettably with a goal rate of 1.4 goals/match.
