Song Lam Nghe An had an excellent match against the Hanoi Police team, bringing home a valuable point. In particular, the impressive performance of goalkeeper Nguyen Van Viet in the second half was a notable highlight.

Home advantage

With home field advantage, coach Phan Nhu Thuat's team confidently deployed a game plan on par with Hanoi Police. The Nghe An team even played better in the first half.

However, it was the visitors who opened the scoring first thanks to Leo Artur after a very annoying cross. But just a few minutes later,Lam River Nghe Anhad an equalizer 1-1 by Benjamin Kuku before the first half ended.

This was also the final score of the match when both teams missed many opportunities in the second half. This result caused Hanoi Police to fall far behind Nam Dinh Blue Steel in the championship race.

Meanwhile, Song Lam Nghe An extended their unbeaten streak of four home matches, thereby leveling the score with Quy Nhon Binh Dinh. This can also be considered a "late birthday" gift to celebrate the 46th anniversary of the founding of Song Lam Nghe An Club.

Hero Nguyen Van Viet

Nguyen Van Viet's miraculous save in the final minute of injury time was one of the memorable highlights, helping Song Lam Nghe An retain a valuable point. Not only that, the goalkeeper from Tan Ky also made at least 3 spectacular saves, demonstrating impressive reflexes and concentration.

In addition to Van Viet, center-back Sebastián Zaracho also deserves praise. The Paraguayan player had an excellent match, especially his goal-line save, which saved his team from a clear goal. Hopefully, both will continue to maintain their form in the upcoming important match against Quy Nhon Binh Dinh.

Physical concerns

Nghe An football team was somewhat caught up in the fast playing style ofHanoi PoliceThis created an attractive attacking game but also caused the Song Lam Nghe An players to quickly lose strength.

In the last 20 minutes of the match, when their physical strength was reduced, the Nghe An team lost control of the game. In particular, after midfielder Ho Khac Ngoc left the field, Song Lam Nghe An no longer had a player to maintain the rhythm and organize effective attacks. This helped Hanoi Police create a lot of pressure on Nguyen Van Viet's goal. Fortunately, the home team's number 1 goalkeeper had an excellent day of play to preserve the score.

Wings of Van Huy, Van Cuong

It has been a long time since Vuong Van Huy and Ho Van Cuong started together on the two flanks of Song Lam Nghe An. These are the two most highly rated full-backs of the Nghe An team at present, bringing peace of mind to fans.

The reality on the field proves that. Van Huy and Van Cuong attack and defend in harmony, fiercely pursuing the opponent whenever they have the ball. Notably, it was Vuong Van Huy who created the assist for Benjamin Kuku to head the equalizer. If this duo continues to maintain good form and fitness, Song Lam Nghe An will have more effective attack options in the future.

Getting points against a strong opponent like Hanoi Police is a great motivation for teachers and students.Coach Phan Nhu ThuatThis result helps increase the players' spirit and confidence, especially when the important match with Quy Nhon Binh Dinh at Vinh Stadium is approaching.
