With 4 goals conceded in the defeat in round 20 of V.League 2023/24 against Hai Phong club, Nam Dinh is now one of the 2 teams that conceded the most goals in the tournament. The team at the top of the rankings, the championship candidate, received a total of 32 goals conceded, only less than the bottom team Khanh Hoa.
"Nam Dinh team has a strong attack, but the defense is not good. Nam Dinh club's defense is only better than Khanh Hoa's. Nam Dinh's defense is not good, so I observed to play, most importantly the second goal came very early. If Rafaelson had equalized 1-1, Hai Phong club would not have won. However, we took advantage of the good opportunity," coach Chu Dinh Nghiem (Hai Phong) commented on the match that took place on the evening of May 22 at Thien Truong Stadium.
Nam Dinh Club (white shirt) lost to Hai Phong.
Hai Phong FC defeated Nam Dinh 4-2 at Thien Truong Stadium on the evening of May 22. Coach Chu Dinh Nghiem's players led 3-0 in the first half. Lucao completed his hat-trick in the second half with a penalty kick. Rafaelson scored two more goals for Nam Dinh but it was not enough to turn the game around.
The head coach of Hai Phong Club added: "This was a match with many goals and many opportunities. The luckier team won. I am satisfied with the quality of the game and the atmosphere of the audience today. We took advantage of the opportunities better. In the first half, there were 4 situations, and we scored 3 goals. In the second half, they played long balls, we played defensive counter-attacks."
Having won with a big score against Nam Dinh Club, Coach Chu Dinh Nghiem still highly appreciates his opponent. He believes that the team from Thanh Nam still has a big advantage in the championship race.
"Nam Dinh team's performance is not good at the moment. However, Nam Dinh team is still the champion," said coach Chu Dinh Nghiem.
Also at the post-match press conference, coach Chu Dinh Nghiem answered questions about strengthening the squad with stars. Currently, the two leading players of Vietnamese football, Nguyen Hoang Duc and Nguyen Quang Hai, are both about to expire their contracts.
"Any team wants to have stars. To be successful, it is necessary to build the team towards higher goals, but it also depends on the financial situation and structure. Certainly, if the team owns Quang Hai and Hoang Duc, it will be very good. The important thing is whether the financial potential of Hai Phong Club can meet the requirements or not," said Mr. Nghiem.
