U17 Song Lam Nghe An and efforts to repeat achievements at the 2024 National U17 Tournament

This will be a very disappointing result, because U17 Song Lam Nghe An owns many quality players. Among them are 4 U16 National team players such as goalkeeper Tran Van Dat, defender Tran Dong Thuc, Le Tan Dung and midfielder Bach Trong Duong.

However, the 4 players have just returned from the U16 Southeast Asian tournament, so they have not yet integrated and are in the best physical condition, causing the young team from Nghe An to not have good results in the first 2 matches.

However, thanks to their efforts and a bit of luck, coach Phan Tien Hoai and his team were able to secure second place in Group A after the third round of matches. They tried to win against U17 Dong Thap with the biggest possible score, and luckily, U17 PVF won 2-1 against U17 Ba Ria Vung Tau despite not having much motivation to compete. These things helped U17 Song Lam Nghe An revive their hope of conquering this year's tournament.

After struggling to get through the group stage, coach Phan Tien Hoai and his team will certainly gain a lot of experience. At the same time, the 6-1 victory over U17 Dong Thap will also help the U17 Song Lam Nghe An players gain more confidence in the upcoming quarter-final match.

That is to improve the solidity of the defense. This is the best quality line of Nghe An U17 with the presence of the National U16 players. Therefore, just a few small adjustments in the defense will help strengthen the steel of coach Phan Tien Hoai's team in the upcoming match.

In particular, when the opponent of U17 Song Lam Nghe An in the quarter-final match was U17 Hanoi, the team had 3 wins in the group stage to rise to the top of group B. The number of 8 goals, 2 goals conceded was enough to show the strength of coach Cristiano Roland's team.

Among them, the trio Dau Hong Phong, Chu Ngoc Nguyen Luc and Nguyen Viet Long stand out. These are important players in the beautiful playing style of U17 Hanoi. Therefore, U17 Song Lam Nghe An needs to have reasonable tactics and high concentration to be able to limit the strength of the capital team.

After stumbling in the group stage, Nghe An team will have a more relaxed mentality in the upcoming quarter-final match. Besides, the more days off is also a great advantage for coach Phan Tien Hoai and his team. It is the basis for U17 Song Lam Nghe An to be able to repeat the achievement at the 2023 National U17 tournament, where they defeated U17 Hanoi with a score of 4-0 in the quarter-finals.

Hopefully, coach Phan Tien Hoai and his team will have an excellent match and thereby enter their name in the semi-finals of this year's tournament.
