SLNA - Than Quang Ninh: Guests hope to get points, home team doesn't want to go empty-handed
(Baonghean.vn) - SLNA's home opponent in round 3 is Than Quang Ninh, the team with 2 consecutive wins in the opening matches, ranked 2nd on the table. At the beginning of the season, coach Phan Thanh Hung confidently announced the goal of the team from the mining land is Top 3 V.League 2018.
Entering V-League 2018, many fans were worried because the atmosphere of preparation for the new season at Than Quang Ninh Club was quite quiet due to financial difficulties. It was not surprising that the club could not keep the pillars of the previous season such as Van Hieu, Minh Tung and especially captain Minh Tuan.
It seemed that in the midst of such difficulties, the team's performance would decline, but Coach Phan Thanh Hung announced the specific goal of Than Quang Ninh to enter the Top 3 in V.League 2018. After 2 rounds, the results showed that this Quang coach said and did what he said.
Building the system
Following the coaching process of Coach Phan Thanh Hung from Hanoi FC until now, it is easy to see that he always focuses on building a collective playing style, focusing on building a system from youth training to the first team. So when Phan Thanh Hung left Hanoi FC and Coach Chu Dinh Nghiem took over, the capital team was still very strong.
The strength of Than Quang Ninh comes from the spirit and solidarity of the whole team, not from individuals. The sublimation of an individual in each match is thanks to the support of the whole team. Coach Phan Thanh Hung has been building a playing style for Than Quang Ninh according to his football philosophy.

In order to avoid the departure of some key players without leaving any gaps, Quang Ninh Club quickly built a new leader. Hai Huy - who played with Minh Tuan was trusted by the coaching staff and players to hold the captain's armband and take on the role of conductor to adjust the team's playing style. Supporting Hai Huy is the former captain of SHB.Da Nang, a favorite student of Coach Phan Thanh Hung.
Like SLNA, coach Phan Thanh Hung advocates training a player who can play in many positions so that he can be used flexibly. So when Minh Tung leaves, the players who can pair up with central defender Thanh Hao could be Tuan Tu, Huy Cuong, Van Viet and young central defender Viet Trieu.
Playing against Saigon, center back Vu Viet Trieu, born in 1997, played quite impressively. Replacing his former student Bui Van Hieu from Hanoi to follow his coach to the Mining team, coach Phan Thanh Hung has names like Nguyen Sa, Hong Quan, Nhat Minh, Kizito, Van Dieu, Thanh Tung.
After the departure of Minh Tuan and Duc Thang, Coach Phan Thanh Hung can be completely assured with the return of Quach Tan and especially foreign player Eydison with his rather strange left "leg". Eydison does not have the speed and agility of Minh Tuan, but in return, this player will make life difficult for defenders who only use domestic players like SLNA. Right defender Xuan Manh (Dinh Hoang) will certainly have a hard time facing this foreign player.
In the 2018 season, Coach Phan Thanh Hung will introduce to V-League a new player who is coming to Vietnam for the first time, Joel Vinicius. This promises to be an interesting "unknown factor" for Than Quang Ninh against all opponents and a card for Coach Phan Thanh Hung to switch from 4-4-2 to 4-1-4-1 because of Joel Vinicius' ability to operate independently.

As the coach with the most achievements in V-League, Coach Phan Thanh Hung understands the situation of the home team very well. Coming to Vinh Stadium, Than Quang Ninh only needs 1 point before returning to Cam Pha Stadium to meet Quang Nam, while SLNA does not want to be empty-handed before meeting the home team FLC Thanh Hoa.
This is really a "difficult situation" for the home team SLNA when they just lost to S.Khanh Hoa. Compared to the coastal city team, the mining team has a faster playing style, Xuan Tu, Joel Vinicius and Joel Vinicius coordinate better.
Perhaps because of that, the match between SLNA and Than Quang Ninh promises to be more difficult to predict the score and will certainly still attract a large audience to the stadium.
