SLNA - Than Quang Ninh: Which way to the opponent's goal?
(Baonghean.vn) - For the past 4 years, SLNA has not been able to beat Than Quang Ninh, regardless of playing away or at home. But in the early match of round 4 of V.League 2021, Coach Quang Truong received orders to win, if he did not want to sink to the bottom of the rankings.
At the beginning of the season, coach Hoang Tho and his team were not highly rated due to a serious loss of force, but the more they played, the more it showed that Than Quang Ninh had the appearance of a "dark horse" of the season.
Energetic guests
They won against host Hong Linh Ha Tinh 2-1, Ho Chi Minh City 2-0 and only lostSHB Da NangWith a close score of 1-0, it shows that Quang Ninh is not an easy team to bully. Especially when the away team has the return of player Hai Huy, the attack of the team from the mining land becomes more diverse, especially long-range shots.
In terms of playing style, both Than Quang Ninh and SLNA use a 4-4-2 formation, so winning or losing in contested situations has a decisive meaning to the match result. The most notable player on the away team is right midfielder Nghiem Xuan Tu. This is the midfielder with the fastest speed and most accurate crosses atV.LeagueCurrently.

After the departure of captain Tuan Linh, Jeremie Lynch, Nhat Minh, Van Viet, Duong Thanh Hao, Quach Tan, Xuan Hung… new coach Hoang Tho has chosen the “know yourself, know your enemy” style of play with a deep-lying formation like SLNA. Perhaps the attacking players Nguyen Sa, Xuan Tu, Hai Huy of the away team are rated higher than the home team.
Xuan Tu's feet seemed to dance on the right wing of the Mining team, without having to observe, Xuan Tu could still cross the ball to Eydison and Pereira Diogo within 16.5m. The Ho Chi Minh City players will forever regret not being able to keep up with this player who came from the amateur football field. If the home team wants to get a point, Dinh Dong of SLNA must stop Tu "horse", if necessary, they must move Xuan Manh to the left wing.
In front of goalkeeper Van Hoang, the central defenders Van Khanh and I.Jelic will have a tough match when the two foreign players Eydison and Pereira Diogo are both good at pressing, dribbling and aerial combat. When needed, these two foreign players will also pass the ball to the second line for Hai Huy to shoot from afar, Dinh Chau and Sy Sam must keep an eye on this space. The two foreign players Eydison and Pereira Diogo will have a match where they will drop low to disrupt the play and wear down SLNA players, which is something that all visiting teams at Vinh Stadium know well.
The way to the goal
On the contrary, the away team also has a "weak point" in the young central defender Anh Viet, who is playing with Gustavo Santos for the second time. Certainly, Gustavo Santos, who played for SLNA last season, is no stranger to the playing style of Van Duc and the home team players, but Anh Viet is the weak point that the Ho Chi Minh City players exploited in the previous match. Many times, the naturalized defender Tran Trung Hieu had to come inside to save Hoai Anh's goal.

The story of how Bruno and Peter distribute their strength when facing a defense consisting of many players who play with strength like Van Khoa, Gustavo Santos, Anh Viet, Tran Trung Hieu is a whole problem. With many players who play the ball well in the air, SLNA should limit the amount of aerial ball turnovers, and the speed chases on the sidelines should not be overused.
It is not difficult for coach Hoang Tho and the coaching staffQuang Ninh Coalpredict the starting lineup and playing style of the home team SLNA. Especially when SLNA is in a corner, the away team has the right to choose the playing style.
Want to get points, surely the playersSLNAmust take advantage of rare opportunities in front of goalkeeper Hoai Anh's goal with individual brilliance, because with the current strength, the home team Vinh will find it difficult to overwhelm the away team.
Expected lineup:
SLNA (4-4-2):Van Hoang, Xuan Manh, Van Khanh, I.Jelic, Dinh Dong, Dinh Tien, Dinh Chau, Sy Sam, Van Duc, Bruno, Peter.
Than.QN (4-4-1-1):Hoai Anh, Van Khoa, Gustavo Santos, Anh Viet, Tran Trung Hieu, Nguyen Sa, Xuan Tu, Mac Hong Quan, Hai Huy, Eydison, Pereira Diogo.
