After the victory over Nam Dinh, center back Hoang Van Khanh revealed that Song Lam Nghe An had carefully analyzed the playing style, thereby neutralizing the away team's foreign striker, who is over 2m tall.

In contrast to Nam Dinh's high spirits, Song Lam Nghe An started the new season full of difficulties. The 1-2 defeat to PVF-CAND in the opening round caused coach Phan Nhu Thuat and his team to face many problems. The defense lacked concentration, individual mistakes continuously appeared and became a fatal weakness. Therefore, the reception of Nam Dinh at Vinh Stadium on the evening of August 23 was considered a real challenge for the team.

However, Song Lam Nghe An had a great match, with 2 beautiful goals from Ngo Van Luong and foreign player Reon Dale Moore bringing a thrilling 2-1 victory, helping the team win all 3 valuable points.

Speaking after the match, center back Hoang Van Khanh shared: “Currently, we are very happy. We entered the match with great determination. The whole team was highly focused until the last minute and today's result is completely deserved.”

Talking about how to lock down the foreign striker who is over 2m tall on Nam Dinh's side, Van Khanh said: "Before the match, we had a meeting and analyzed very carefully. The coach asked the whole team to be highly focused and not to be negligent. He is really too tall, beyond the reach of Vietnamese players, but we had a suitable plan and completed the task."

The central defender born in 1995 also commented on the integration of Song Lam Nghe An's foreign players: "They haven't integrated 100% yet, but they are trying very hard in every training session. I believe that in the upcoming matches, they will explode more and help the team become stronger."

Assessing the significance of the victory, Van Khanh emphasized: “The first win, right at home, helps the whole team become much more confident. This is a mental boost for us to play our best in the upcoming rounds. Song Lam Nghe An’s goal this season is to enter the Top 10.”

After this match, Song Lam Nghe An will have a difficult away match against Hai Phong on August 27. This will continue to be an important test for coach Phan Nhu Thuat and his team in their journey to assert themselves in the new season./.
