EMOTIONAL VICTORY OF HA NOI CLUB
Hanoi FC marched to Pleiku Stadium with the goal of having to win to forget the defeat against HAGL at home stadium Hang Day in the first leg. The determination of the capital team was even greater when the match on the afternoon of February 21 was also the debut day of coach Teguramori Makoto. Obviously, the coach who led the Japanese U.23 team to win the U.23 Asian Cup and participated in the 2016 Rio Olympics had a perfect debut when taking all 3 points. The victory was even more meaningful when Hanoi FC defeated the home team with a score of 3-0.
Coach Teguramori Makoto had a successful debut at Pleiku Stadium on the afternoon of February 21, helping Hanoi Club beat HAGL 3-0.
Looking at the developments on the field, it can be predicted that coach Teguramori Makoto will have a lot of work to do, because before being awarded a penalty that led to Luka's opening goal in the 70th minute, Hanoi FC did not show clear dominance. New striker Daniel Passira continued to play unluckily, still unable to open his goal account for the new team, while the roles of former pillars such as Hung Dung or the two full-backs Dinh Hai and Van Xuan played poorly. Veteran Van Quyet, who just renewed his contract, continued to "carry the burden" of his juniors as usual. Fortunately, Joao Pedro, as usual, came on the field to create a breakthrough, contributing to 2 goals and leaving HAGL with only 10 men on the field after the foul that led to Jairo's red card. It is very likely that coach Teguramori Makoto will give Joao Pedro a starting opportunity in the upcoming matches.
HAGL falls deeply in the rankings
HAGL suffered their first defeat against Hanoi FC at home in Pleiku after 5 years. This defeat not only put the mountain town team at risk of falling from 8th place in the rankings, but also brought great worries for the next 2 matches. The fact that No. 1 midfielder Jairo received a direct red card caused him to be absent from the 2 away matches in Ho Chi Minh City and Thanh Hoa. The mistake of young midfielder Ly Duc leading to the first penalty against Hanoi FC will have a psychological impact on the young man who just turned 20 a few days ago. Along with a near-red card before after a rather reckless tackle on the opponent (referee Nguyen Manh Hai only issued a yellow card after checking VAR), it seems that coach Le Quang Trai will have to instruct his students to play more carefully in the V-League stage, which will be more heated in the second leg. Technical director Vu Tien Thanh was also helpless in the match where HAGL could not take advantage of the home field.
Up to now, HAGL Club is still in a fairly safe position on the rankings, when it is 6 points ahead of the second-to-last team Hai Phong. But don't forget that the lower-ranked teams often have unexpected victories recently.
HOT ON BINH DUONG STADIUM
The highlight of the two matches of round 14 of the V-League 2024 - 2025 this afternoon (February 22) will be the clash between Binh Duong Club and SLNA Club taking place at 6:00 p.m. After a long period of "cold war" with the club's leadership, the SLNA Fans Association in the southern region will temporarily put aside their differences to cheer for coach Phan Nhu Thuat and his team in the fierce relegation race. There will be thousands of SLNA fans from the southern provinces parading with flags, pennants, banners, trumpets, drums... in Binh Duong province with the final destination being the football field.
It is expected that Tien Linh and his teammates will have to prepare mentally to play at home as if they were playing away when they are dyed yellow by SLNA fans. Tien Linh is very eager to score to help his team regain their winning streak and maintain their top position in the race for the Golden Boot. Binh Duong Club's defense will also have to regain their solidity so that coach Nguyen Cong Manh can reclaim the debt owed after the 0-1 loss in round 11.
In the remaining match, Hai Phong Club really wants to win to escape the haunting second-to-last position. However, Coach Chu Dinh Nghiem's students will have to make a lot of effort when welcoming the "invincible" team Ha Tinh, who have had 13 unbeaten matches since the beginning of the tournament. Getting very close to the record of 16 unbeaten matches of Song Da Nam Dinh Club (the predecessor of the current Nam Dinh Club) will give strong motivation for Coach Nguyen Thanh Cong and his team to continue writing the fairy tale this season.
