Song Lam Nghe An and the challenge of facing The Cong Viettel.

In this match,Lam River, Nghe AnMidfielder Nguyen Quang Vinh will be absent due to suspension. This further weakens the already fragile midfield of the Nghe An team.

The most notable player in the Nghe An team's midfield right now is Dinh Xuan Tien. However, the 2003-born midfielder's fitness is still not at its best. Dinh Xuan Tien hasn't played a full match in the past seven games. Therefore, the midfield problem will be a headache for coach Phan Nhu Thuat in the upcoming match.

Especially since the Army team has a fairly strong midfield. With Nguyen Duc Chien, Wesley Nata, and Khuat Van Khang, it will be very difficult for Song Lam Nghe An to have a good game in the upcoming match.

Therefore, a tight defensive style and quick counter-attacks will remain the main approach for the Nghe An team in this match. And Song Lam Nghe An must adopt a scientific defensive strategy if they want to earn any points in this game.

Dong A Thanh Hoa serves as an example for the Nghe An team to learn from. The The Cong Viettel attack was completely ineffective against the Thanh Hoa team throughout the 45 minutes of the second half, despite playing with a man advantage. The well-organized formation and the defensive support from the forwards were the factors that helped Dong A Thanh Hoa withstand the pressure from the military team.

In the upcoming match, the key players in Song Lam Nghe An's defense will still be goalkeeper Nguyen Van Viet, center-backs Le Nguyen Hoang and Zaracho, and the two wing-backs Ho Van Cuong and Vuong Van Huy. These players have played very hard, but they are still lacking the best cover and support for each other.

This is predicted to be a difficult and tough match for the defense.Nghe An teamTherefore, the defenders of Song Lam Nghe An will have to maintain their concentration throughout the 90 minutes to help their team withstand the attacks of The Cong Viettel.

After a tight defense, Song Lam Nghe An can then think about quick counter-attacks. In the two recent matches against The Cong Viettel, Song Lam Nghe An has made excellent use of counter-attacks to score goals. Therefore, in the upcoming match, counter-attacks will still be the basis for the team from Nghe An to score goals.

However, in recent matches, it seems that the players in the defensive line of Song Lam Nghe An have lacked the composure to execute accurate counter-attacking passes, especially when constantly under pressure from the opponent. Therefore, the team from Nghe An needs to improve their transition between attacking and counter-attacking phases in the upcoming match to enhance the effectiveness of their counter-attacks.

Furthermore, physical fitness remains a concern in the upcoming match. Of course, this issue cannot be resolved overnight; it requires a long-term process. Therefore, the coaching staff of the Nghe An team needs to carefully plan how to distribute energy effectively. This might involve a passive playing style for most of the game, but with the readiness to unleash their full potential at crucial moments to deliver decisive blows and finish off the opponent.

One win and one draw last season beforeViettel SportsThis would be a great boost to the morale of the Song Lam Nghe An players. And with the enthusiastic support of the home crowd, coach Phan Nhu Thuat's team could certainly achieve a good result against the Army team.

Hopefully, Song Lam Nghe An will have an excellent match at home to have a beautiful farewell to 2024.
