Song Lam Nghe An receives positive signals when V-League returns

Positive signs after draw in round 3

In this year's season,Lam River Nghe Anhad an unsuccessful start. After 3 rounds, coach Pham Anh Tuan's team only got 2 points and ranked 12th on the rankings. However, looking back at the match in round 3, Nghe An fans can still see some positive signs of Song Lam Nghe An. In which, with a patchwork defense, the Vinh home team still organized a scientific and tight defense. The young central defenders ofCoach Pham Anh Tuanplayed with full strength, precision, determination and confidence. If they had not lost focus in the last minute of the match, the Vinh home team could have kept a clean sheet. In particular, the 18-year-old central defender - Phan Van Thanh, who was on the field for the first time in the V-League, played with great confidence and successfully blocked many dangerous attacks from the opponent. It can be said that if the defense of the Nghe An team continues to play like in round 3, the opportunity for Song Lam Nghe An to aim for positive results in the next matches is very high.

As for the attacking front, coach Pham Anh Tuan's team showed many improvements. Especially in the second half, Song Lam Nghe An organized a number of fast-paced attacks, containing many surprises. In particular, in addition to Kuku's header over the bar, Quang Vinh also left regret with a shot that missed the post, after a bold breakthrough on the left wing.

However, the most encouraging sign in the match against Hong Linh Ha Tinh was Kuku's first goal for Song Lam Nghe An. It can be seen that after 2 scoreless matches, many spectators have some doubts about the ability of the Nigerian rookie. And that equalizer could be the impetus for Kuku to continue scoring in the upcoming matches.

With positive signals after the draw in round 3, Nghe An fans can completely believe in a positive result for Song Lam Nghe An when V-League returns.

A series of pillars return

Before round 4, Song Lam Nghe An faced a serious force crisis. The most heavily affected was the defense line. However, the 20-day break helped Song Lam Nghe An's key central defenders recover in time and return to play. Important players such as Tran Nam Hai, Tran Dinh Hoang, and Le Nguyen Hoang will likely be on the field in round 4. They will firmly strengthen the defense line for the Vinh home team.

Besides, after the "running roda" period in the past 3 rounds, Ho Van Cuong has almost regained his original physical strength and feeling. This will help Song Lam Nghe An's wings become stronger and more flexible.

In particular, in round 4, foreign midfielder Zaracho will be released from suspension and will be able to play. It can be said that these returns are an effective medicine to help coach Pham Anh Tuan dispel the "headache" he has suffered for the past 3 rounds.

When the defense has been reinforced, it will create a solid foundation for the front line of Song Lam Nghe An to play more explosively. That is even more plausible when Kuku has found his scoring touch again in the new team's shirt.

Perhaps the position that coach Pham Anh Tuan is still struggling with is the anchor midfielder. In the past 3 rounds, Dang Quang Tu was given the opportunity by the Nghe coaching staff, but he still could not fulfill his duties as expected. The ability to maintain the rhythm and launch attacks of this midfielder is still limited. This is one of the reasons why the midfield of Song Lam Nghe An is often at a disadvantage compared to the opponents. And to improve this problem, perhaps the option of pushing Nam Hai to play in the anchor midfielder position will likely be considered by coach Pham Anh Tuan.

It can be seen that the 20-day break is like a magic potion to help Song Lam Nghe An escape the force crisis they had to endure in the first 3 rounds of the season. Hopefully, Song Lam Nghe An will have a reasonable playing style and tactics to bring about positive results when the V-League returns./.
