At Hang Day Stadium, The Cong Viettel club welcomed Thep Xanh Nam Dinh in a context where the two teams were in opposite states.
Coach Popov's team still maintains stability with disciplined play and fast counter-attacking ability. The Cong Viettel often plays well against strong opponents and tends to take full advantage of the opponent's mistakes.
Meanwhile, Nam Dinh went through a series of unconvincing matches despite possessing many quality individuals. The biggest problem of the Nam team lies in bravery and concentration, especially at decisive moments at the end of the match.
The match against Viettel is therefore a turning point. If the result does not improve, the reigning V.League champion will continue to be deeply drawn into the relegation race.
In the remaining match, Dong A Thanh Hoa will face Cong An Hanoi at home. The Thanh Hoa team entered the competition with many difficulties but the spirit is rising. Despite facing a force and financial crisis, Thanh Hoa still achieved positive results to improve their position in the rankings.
The thin force forces force the coaching staff to put a heavy emphasis on the spirit and discipline, instead of focusing on tactical calculations. However, welcoming Hanoi Police is a big challenge, as the opponent possesses a balanced force, many national team players and still maintains a stable pace in the V.League.
This match has the meaning of reaffirming their position after the Hanoi Police team stopped early in the continental and regional arena. Coach Alexandre Polking's team only has V.League left to focus all their strength and a victory in Thanh Hoa will help them increase the gap with the chasing group.
The pressure to win the championship forced Quang Hai and his teammates to turn disappointment in the international arena into motivation in the domestic league.
