Song Lam Nghe An with the race to the finish line
(Baonghean.vn) - With 27 points, ranked 6th in the rankings, the Nghe An team has only one goal left in V.League 2022: "training the army and adjusting the generals". The position of Song Lam Nghe An cannot compete for medals as announced at the beginning of the season, nor is it in the red light group.
In this round, Song Lam Nghe An is off, a necessary time for the boss Tan Long to quickly mend the relationship with the Southern fans. The next opponent is the away team Binh Duong, which is not highly rated. This is a good opportunity for coach Huy Hoang and his team to regain the trust of the fans. This is a match where only a victory can restore the image of the Nghe team at the beginning of the season.
Analysis of the situation
 |
After the match against Binh Duong, the next 3 matches of coach Huy Hoang and his team will not be easy. The home teams Binh Dinh and Hai Phong are both in the top medal contenders and their strength is better than the Nghe An team. Sitting in the technical cabin, Duc Thang and Chu Dinh Nghiem are both rated higher than coach Huy Hoang. Right at Vinh Stadium, "Vietnam's PSG" also won the home team Song Lam Nghe An 2-1 with very good attacking moves. This is the match where Lynch played "possessed" when returning to Vinh Stadium with his moves like a football artist. The class of coach Duc Thang of Binh Dinh has been proven.
As for Hai Phong's Rimario, the player leading the scoring list is a big nightmare for V.League defenders. With 17 goals, this striker is double the number of goals scored by 3 foreign players of Song Lam Nghe An. The Jamaican player's pressing and pressing style mixed with technical solo moves is something Que Ngoc Hai and the Song Lam Nghe An defenders often fear. Not to mention Mpande, after more than half a season playing as a defender, has just returned to the attack and has already scored 5 goals. The trio of Hai Huy, Rimario, Mpande are in great form, so the possibility of the Nghe team scoring points at Lach Tray Stadium is not high.
The match ending the 2022 V.League season against Nam Dinh is again considered unpredictable by experts. Vietnamese football always has matches where the team is thirsty for points, always knows how to get all 3 points. In round 22 of the 2022 V.League, people just witnessed the home team Thanh Hoa, who is in good form, still lose 1-2 to TP.HCM, having not won 3 matches before. Without a goal, it is very difficult for teams to play against the red light teams.
Remaining tasks
 |
Coach Huy Hoang is right to leave out foreign players and goalkeeper Van Hoang to give opportunities to young players. Perhaps, boss Tan Long must boldly declare the remaining season's goals so that fans understand the duties of the coaching staff and players. We cannot just stay silent, keep the top 3 goal and play like the previous rounds. Fans also need to challenge the coaching talent of Huy Hoang - who has declared at least 3 times that he will win medals in his first time as a V.League coach.
With the current strength of Song Lam Nghe An, the goal of top 6 is also difficult, even using foreign players. But if only standing in the top 10, it can be said that this is a complete failure of the season for sponsor Tan Long and the team. Because considering the investment cost, the quality of Song Lam Nghe An players must be at least in the top 7 of V.League 2022. We cannot rely on giving young players the opportunity to compete and forget about the season's achievements, young players must also have goals to strive for. To do that, in the next 4 matches, Song Lam Nghe An must get at least 6-7 points, something that is not easy for Huy Hoang in his first season as coach.
