Pho Hien - Song Lam Nghe An: Opportunity for reserve players
(Baonghean.vn) - At 6:00 p.m. on April 23, coach Ngo Quang Truong and his team will visit Pho Hien in the qualifying round of the 2021 National Cup.
It is almost certain that in the match against coach Hua Hien Vinh and his team, the coaching staff of Song Lam Nghe An will not use their strongest lineup.
In addition to the fact that foreign players are not allowed to use the game due to VPF regulations, this is also an opportunity for Nguyen Van Hoang, Pham Xuan Manh, Phan Van Duc, Bui Dinh Chau... to have time to rest, after a period of continuous hard work with a dense competition schedule. Hoang Van Khanh's injury is a warning.

Besides, the opponent ofLam River Nghe Anis also Pho Hien, a team that is in poor form in the 2021 National First Division. After 4 matches, coach Hua Hien Vinh and his team have not won a single match (lost 2, drew 2) and are currently languishing in 11th place on the rankings. In the match that took place on April 17, at home, Pho Hien was defeated by rookie Phu Dong with a score of 1-0. This is a very disappointing achievement for the team that participated in the 2019 play-off match, with Thanh Hoa.
Meeting an opponent whose force is not really strong and is in a crisis of form, is a great opportunity for the coaching staff of Song Lam Nghe An to boldly field players from the second team.
In many ways, thoughCoach Ngo Quang TruongNo matter what formation Pho Hien uses, they are not an equal opponent to Song Lam Nghe An. Don't forget that the Nghe An team owns a number of excellent young players, typically Thai Ba Sang or Nguyen Van Viet.

Most likely, the starting lineup of Song Lam Nghe An in the match against Pho Hien will be as follows: the goalkeeper position will be Tran Van Tien, the defenders will be Mai Sy Hoang - Thai Ba Sang - Pham The Nhat - Tran Dinh Dong, the central midfielder duo will be Ho Sy Sam - Nguyen Van Duc, the two wingers will be Phan Dinh Thang and Nguyen Van Viet, and the striker pair will be Tran Manh Quynh - Ho Phuc Tinh. If Song Lam Nghe An does not have a good game or is at a disadvantage in terms of score, coach Ngo Quang Truong will have to send some key players onto the field.
Hopefully, the reserve players and especially the young players of Song Lam Nghe An will compete successfully, contributing to helping the home team win a ticket to play in the round of 16.
