HAGL beware of crisis

In the opening match of V-League 2023 - 2024 against the difficult team Hai Phong, HAGL achieved a fairly positive result with a 1-1 draw. When it seemed like "the beginning was smooth, the end was smooth", the home team Pleiku quickly returned to earth with 2 consecutive losses against Hanoi Police Club (0-3) and Binh Dinh Club (1-3). The deviations have begun to appear in HAGL's playing style, but coach Kiatisak still has time to improve this. About 1 month of V-League suspension to make way for the FIFA Days schedule in November is considered a valuable opportunity for the former striker of the Thai national team to have more calculations, to help HAGL improve the results. In addition, right before round 3, HAGL promptly recruited and added foreign striker Jhon Cley to increase the strength of the attack, which is considered the biggest weakness of the mountain town team. The former number 1 striker of Hanoi Police Club also has enough time to integrate with the new team.

Coach Kiatisak and HAGL have yet to taste victory this season.

However, after the FIFA Days break, HAGL continued to suffer a 1-2 defeat against Hanoi Police Club in the National Cup on the evening of November 26. After the reverse defeat, Coach Kiatisak still smiled when shaking hands with his colleague Gong Oh-kyun. But surely, it was not a satisfied smile of "Thai Zico", as HAGL still could not win in the new season 2023 - 2024.

HAGL (blue shirt) cannot fly high yet

It can be said that HAGL is the team facing the "harshest" schedule in the early stages of the V-League. After 3 matches without knowing the taste of victory, HAGL will have to continuously face formidable opponents from round 4 to round 8. Coach Kiatisak's team will face Binh Duong Club (December 3), Viettel Club (December 8), SLNA (December 17), Nam Dinh Club (December 23) and Hanoi Club (December 27). It is worth noting that HAGL is no longer highly regarded compared to the above opponents at this time.

It is time for coach Kiatisak to show his talent to steer HAGL through the difficult period ahead. Not to mention the championship goal, the mountain town team needs to handle the upcoming matches against strong opponents well, so that HAGL can avoid falling into crisis. Because the results in the early stages always play a very important role, affecting the performance of a team throughout the season. Losing too much will create psychological pressure, causing the players to lose confidence and their legs will no longer be able to flourish. If HAGL does not change in a positive direction in the near future, the prospect of "spending their youth to stay in the league" will appear before the eyes of the mountain town team's players.
