SLNA - HAGL: Hot spot Xuan Manh - Van Thanh
(Baonghean.vn) - The return of Xuan Manh and Van Thanh after a long period of injury makes the confrontation between SLNA and HAGL in round 13 more exciting.
The talent of Van Thanh and Xuan Manh is something that does not need to be verified anymore. It is not an exaggeration to say that Van Thanh is one of the best players on the two wings. The player from Hai Duong is not only excellent in the role of left-back and left-wing midfielder, but also leaves a lot of impressions when he is pushed to play as a right-back.
Possessing a strong physical foundation, a persistent and intelligent playing style, Van Thanh always shows rhythm between attack and defense like a machine.
In this year’s V.League, up to now, Van Thanh has contributed 1 goal for the mountain town team. The goal against Viettel in round 9 marked the most wonderful “return” of the player wearing the number 17 shirt.

It is not known yet whether coach Lee Tae-hoon will arrange Van Thanh to play as a left-back or left midfielder in the upcoming match against SLNA. However, no matter what position he plays, the player born in 1996 is a danger to SLNA's defense.
If they cannot find a suitable solution to neutralize Van Thanh's brilliance, the risk of the home team conceding a goal is not small.
That task depends on the excellence of right winger Xuan Manh. Having played together in the U23 Vietnam and Olympic Vietnam jerseys before, Manh “Kalou” will know what to do to defeat Van Thanh in a one-on-one match. With a strong physical foundation and an aggressive and fierce playing style, Xuan Manh will be a solid “shield” in front of Van Thanh.

Therefore, the player from Yen Thanh (Nghe An) is very strong in both attack and defense. In recent matches, Xuan Manh has always completed his assigned tasks excellently. The assist that helped Tuan Tai score in the match against Saigon is a typical example.
Of course, besides the duel between Van Thanh and Xuan Manh, there is also the appearance and support of Hong Duy, Dinh Hoang as well as many other players. Therefore, the competition on the right wing in the attacking direction of SLNA promises to be extremely fierce and attractive in the confrontation between the Nghe An team and the team from the Central Highlands./.
