Trust Oseni

As a last-minute contract in the early 2022 transfer window of Song Lam Nghe An, Oseni immediately scored in his debut match against Saigon Club. In the following matches, the Nigerian striker continued to prove his worth by continuously contributing to the victories of the Nghe An team. With three goals and one assist after the first 6 matches, Oseni seemed to be a perfect contract for Song Lam Nghe An.

However, the continuous missed opportunities have caused the 31-year-old striker to lose his confidence and also lose his official position in the starting lineup of the Nghe An team. Pushing Oseni to the bench was a reluctant move by coach Huy Hoang, because in the attack line of Song Lam Nghe An, besides Olaha and Phan Van Duc, there is no one with better ability than the striker wearing the number 91 shirt. This could be a provocative move by the Nghe An team's coaching staff towards Oseni, they want to awaken the Nigerian striker's desire to play and also a warning to other players who have not been in good form recently.

Meeting Hong Linh Ha Tinh, the team currently second to last in the V.League 2022 rankings, is an opportunity for Oseni to find his scoring touch again. Hong Linh Ha Tinh's defense is one of the worst with 22 goals conceded after 15 matches. The central defender pair Janclesio Santos and Trinh Van Loi may be very good in the air, but their ability to turn slowly and cover for each other is not good. Looking at the way Victor Mansaray scored in Nam Dinh Club's 2-0 victory over Hong Linh Ha Tinh, fans can see the familiar figure ofOseniday. In a defensive counter-attacking game, Oseni's speed and ability to run will be an important strategic card for coach Huy Hoang. In the first leg, Oseni was the only scorer of the match after a powerful header in the 16th minute. Hopefully, Oseni's luck will continue to be promoted in the upcoming match.

However, to have such a brave and dangerous Oseni, the coaching staff of Song Lam Nghe An must help this Nigerian striker to remove the psychological burden and create a sense of excitement when playing. Fans of Nghe An believe that, with just one goal to quench his thirst, this Nigerian striker will regain his confidence and innate scoring instinct.

The 2022 V.League season still has 1/3 of the way left, Oseni's revival is very necessary for Song Lam Nghe An at this time. And the matchNghe Tinh DerbyHope it will be a milestone for the revival of striker Oseni as well as Song Lam Nghe An.
