SLNA - Than Quang Ninh: Vinh Stadium's support
(Baonghean.vn) - "Vinh City's Fire Pan" often gives SLNA an advantage when hosting Than Quang Ninh. Most likely, the match between the two teams in round 4 of V.League 2021 will not be an exception.
Before entering the match that will take place at 5:00 p.m. tomorrow, March 18, Than Quang Ninh is the team that is rated higher in terms of performance. After the first 3 rounds of V.League 2021, coach Hoang Tho and his team have won 6/9 maximum points, thanks to 2 victories against Hong Linh Ha Tinh and Ho Chi Minh City.

Witnessing what Nguyen Hai Huy and his teammates did in the 2-0 victory over TP.HCM in the last round, domestic football fans could not help but be surprised and admire. It seems that the departures of head coach Phan Thanh Hung, goalkeeper Huynh Tuan Linh, central defender Duong Thanh Hao... have not affected much the strength of the team from the Mining land.
Therefore, the goal of coach Hoang Tho and his team in this trip to Vinh Stadium is nothing other than to defeat the home team. However, this is not an easy task for Nguyen Hai Huy and his teammates. Simply put, Than Quang Ninh rarely gets positive results when visiting the "fire pan of Vinh city".
According to statistics, since appearing in the V.League arena (2014), the team from the Mining land has not once won all 3 points against the home team SLNA. The best achievement of Than Quang Ninh after 6 trips to Vinh stadium is a 1-1 draw in V.League 2017, a 2-2 draw in V.League 2018 and a 0-0 draw in V.League 2019.
It can be affirmed that Vinh Stadium is a place where "it's easy to go, hard to return" for the team from the Mining land in the past. Certainly, SLNA will take full advantage of playing at home to seek the first victory of this year's season. Hopefully, coach Ngo Quang Truong and his team will not let Than Quang Ninh leave Nghe An with points in hand./.
