Hai Phong aims to relegation despite the leading V-League
Coach Chu Dinh Nghiem took over the Hai Phong Club before the V-League 2022 with a very thin force. In order for the army and the port to recruit the midfielder was criticized by Hanoi Moses, the striker was erratic Rimario, and borrowed a series of players such as Trieu Viet Hung, Dung Quang Nho, Chau Ngoc Quang .. . Tuy nhiên, họ đang gây ấn tượng mạnh khi liên tục dẫn đầu V-League.
On the forums, Hai Phong fans started talking about the first V-League championship in the team history. However, Mr. Nghiem said that it was an unrealistic goal. He said: "Everyone wants to have good achievements, but the force like this, we only know how to calculate and try each battle. The goal of Hai Phong in the immediate future is to achieve the necessary score to relegation."
Hai Phong started the season with two victories against Ha Tinh and Nam Dinh, then Hoa Thanh Hoa and Binh Duong. They then broke the unbeaten circuit when they lost 1-2 on the Hanoi Stadium. Coach and coach Chu Dinh Nghiem then lost the top of the table to SLNA, due to losing to Viettel at home in round 7. But in round 8, Hai Phong defeated the 3-1 stars to return to the top of the V-League table. "Hai Phong is lucky to have the current achievement," Mr. Nghiem expressed his humility when talking about the current position. "The force is thin, if unfortunately there are players injured or sticky cards, we will deviate from the downwards immediately. Two defeats against Hanoi and Viettel are the example, when the team lost the captain Nguyen Hai Huy And greatly affected ".
According to the coach of Thanh Hoa, strong teams like Hanoi or Viettel may not have many problems despite losing two matches, but Hai Phong will come down very quickly if they receive such defeat. "Fortunately, my player gripped each other's hands to fight and Thang Binh Dinh to block the losing circuit," Nghiem added.
Hai Phong is "makeover" about the play under Mr. Nghiem. Instead of waving the ball for the external striker like the previous seasons, they calmly held the ball, shortly coordinated to organize the attack. However, coach Chu Dinh Nghiem was not completely satisfied, because what the player showed was only about 80% compared to his expectations. He explained: "We need to train more bravery to coordinate our play, when it is fast, it is fast, need to be slow, then the opponent must kick at our own will, not to follow them."
Coach Chu Dinh Nghiem said he really needs to find a good center -back to "liberate" Joseph Mpande. Due to the lack of central defenders, he had to pull this foreign soldier in front of the goalkeeper even though his forte was the striker. However, the former coach of Hanoi admitted that it would be difficult to earn good contracts in the mid -season transfer period.
Hai Phong is currently 14 points, a team closer to SLNA, but the kick is more than one match. In the next round, Chu Dinh Nghiem's army had to come to be a guest of this opponent. Hai Phong promises to have great difficulties when Rimario - who scored 8 of the 14 goals of the V -League 2022 - was suspended for receiving all three yellow cards. "Rimario will be very tough. He is a destination in Hai Phong's gameplay, is the main goalscorer, scoring up to two -thirds of the team. , imbalance, "Mr. Nghiem added.
Mr. Nghiem also complained of the goalkeeper. Nguyen Van Toan injured when U23 Vietnam kicked the Asian U23 tournament, but still had to participate in the list of the match against Binh Dinh. He was serious that if unfortunately, Dinh Trieu could not catch the battle, Van Toan was forced to enter the yard even though his hands had not recovered.
