Through hardship
Positive signals for Thanh Hoa football soon came from before the match against Hanoi Police Club. Leaders of the Thanh Hoa team said they will manage financial resources to remove the transfer ban from FIFA. However, this is not the time for many people to believe in this, because Thanh Hoa is in a difficult situation surrounding them.
But it was the impressive performance despite the 1-3 defeat that helped Thanh Hoa score a strong impression in the hearts of fans. Thousands of fans still lingered waiting in the cold rain at Thanh Hoa stadium to encourage the spirit of the home team players.
Immediately after the match, when the players were resting, Thanh Hoa club leaders were almost sleepless. They quickly completed procedures to pay expenses to lift the transfer ban from FIFA.
On the afternoon of February 27, coach Mai Xuan Hop may bring 21 players to Hai Phong to prepare for the confrontation in round 14 of the V.League. This is a number that the coach born in 1985... does not dare to hope for. Simply, Mr. Hop always determines that he will enter the field with what he has and accepts to manage with a small number of players.
On social networks, many Thanh Hoa people expressed great joy when the home team gradually overcame the challenge.
Positive signal
Immediately after the match with Hanoi Police Club, head coach Mai Xuan Hop expressed: "I would like to express my thanks to the provincial leaders, the leaders of the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism. I hope that there will be sharing from the provincial leaders. In the coming time, I and the club leaders will still have to find solutions first.
We have seen positive signals when Standing Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee Nguyen Hong Phong came to the stadium and encouraged, this is the first time provincial leaders have come to the stadium in many months.
No plea, no status on the social networks of the Thanh team touched fans more than the performance on the field. Thanh Hoa only has 17 people, having to use goalkeepers as strikers, but still got 4 points in 3 matches against Nam Dinh, Ho Chi Minh City Police and Hanoi Police.
The appearance of the Standing Deputy Secretary of Thanh Hoa Provincial Party Committee is like a way to add faith to the players. They gradually think about the bright days and the hardship may gradually pass.
When FIFA's penalty was officially lifted, people waited for the tireless runs of the responsible players from Thanh Hoa. When Van Thuan left, Nguyen Van Tung emerged as a new choice. Thai Son was no longer in the team, Ngoc Quy and Damoth Thongkhamsavath gradually stepped into the light.
Thanh Hoa Club continues to tell a fairy tale written by this team itself. It would be a great ending for Thanh Hoa and the entire V.League if coach Mai Xuan Hop's team officially stays in the league this season.
