U13 Song Lam Nghe An crushed Hoang Anh Gia Lai at the National U13 Finals
U13 Song Lam Nghe An had a smooth start when they crushed U13 Hoang Anh Gia Lai with a score of 4-1 in the first match of the final round of the National U13 Tournament 2024. The Nghe An team is determined to successfully defend the title.
Determined to defend the throne
After the scandals of U9 and U11 Song Lam Nghe An in the 2023 season, Song Lam Nghe An Youth Football Training Center is determined to purge all over-age players in the U teams, in order to rebuild "clean" football.
The purification process has caused Nghe An U13 to suffer many losses in terms of strength. Many overage players in the U13 team had to say goodbye. In order to ensure the number of players, the Center has recruited many new athletes for this team.
However, this has led to a gap in skill level between the players in the squad. In addition, compared to players from teams such as U13 Viettel, U13 Hanoi or U13 PVF, the U13 Song Lam Nghe An team this year does not have a very outstanding physique. This has greatly affected the strength of U13 Song Lam Nghe An when entering the 2024 National U13 tournament.
To overcome these limitations, the U13 Nghe An coaching staff has built a highly disciplined playing style. In addition, due to their not-so-ideal physique, the team has chosen to play short rotations with flexibility in the movement between players.
After a period of "overcoming the sun and rain" on the training ground, the playing style of U13 Song Lam Nghe An has been running smoothly, ready to enter the 2024 National U13 Tournament with the determination to defend the throne.
After 4 qualifying matches, U13 Song Lam Nghe An has proven to fans their serious preparation process, as well as their determination to continue dominating this tournament.

A smooth start

According to the tournament rules, in each group, the 2 teams with the best results will be selected to play in the Quarterfinals. Therefore, in order to avoid obstacles to the set goal, U13 Song Lam Nghe An needs to have a positive result in the first match against the tough opponent U13 Hoang Anh Gia Lai.
Facing a direct competitor for a ticket to the next round, U13 Song Lam Nghe An still entered the game confidently and created many opportunities towards U13 Hoang Anh Gia Lai's goal.
However, coach Le Van Hung and his team let the opponent take the lead in the 23rd minute of the match, after an exemplary counter-attack. Minh Huy was the player who finished neatly to defeat the U13 Song Lam Nghe An goalkeeper after an accurate pass from his teammate.
After being "doused with cold water" early, U13 Song Lam Nghe An woke up, organizing more coherent and effective attacks. That helped coach Le Van Hung's team restore balance in the 25th minute of the match. The goal came from midfielder Van Tai after an accurate pass from the right wing by Bao Hoang.
Entering the second half, U13 Song Lam Nghe An showed their superiority over U13 Hoang Anh Gia Lai. Coach Le Van Hung's students had no difficulty dominating the game and creating opportunities in front of the opponent's goal. U13 Song Lam Nghe An scored consecutive goals in the 40th, 42nd and 43rd minutes thanks to Van Ngoc, Van Tai and Bao Hoang to secure a 4-1 victory.
With this result, U13 Song Lam Nghe An had a smooth start against the team directly competing for a ticket to pass the group stage.
