Kiatisuk:'HAGL's lucky to have a spot

"One spot is the right thing for us, very strong, played on the field, and there's a German manager, who's good at strategy, the HAGL's men speak at the press conference after the fight.

On Guiren Court, Pingding dominated from the beginning, and then opened the scoring in Van Thanh's counterattack in the 19th minute. But in the 40th minute, the game changed when there were only 10 men on the home team field. Van Hao headed the ball wide, giving Van Toan a chance to escape. Goalkeeper Tuyen Quang had to go over the box, too late to touch the ball and instead hit the HAGL striker in the foot. Hong Wu, the referee, immediately showed a red card and disqualified the goalkeeper of the home team. Playing more than people, Hagel pressed the field continuously and equalized the score with Brandao in the 86th minute.

"In the first half we didn't get into the game well and then conceded first, so it was difficult. Fortunately the opposing goalkeeper got a red card. Played better, HAGL tried to come back and score. But Binh Dinh also defended well. Good," Zico Thai added, before rating 1-1 as a fair result for both teams.

HAGL doesn't have the best strength in this game. Number one Tuan Linh and number two Van Truong were injured, forcing them to use 18-year-old goalkeeper Van Loi. Brandau was in the main line-up, but had to make way for Xuan Chang because of health problems 10 minutes before the ball rolled. However, in the second half, when the team was deadlocked, Kitty Suk had to take the risk of bringing Brandao into football. When the foreign aid scored a goal to pull the score to 1-1, it was rewarded.

"Really, we don't have the best strength, only one foreign soldier to start, while there are four in pacification. But, we still fight and get points," coach Kiatisuk added.

Besides Brandao, in the second round, HAGL also brought two U23's ranks, including the Green Destiny, to enter the courtyard. manager Kiatisuk says this will be the course of HAGL's journey in the next time to the hope of the GD's Watch. To help them grow and in the future that can contribute to the Vietnamese recruits.

HAGL plays well in 2021 season, leading behind 12-round with nine victories and a concert, before the dissolved for Covid-19-19. But the team didn't sustain the bearing in the 2022 season. Kiatisuk's army hasn't won a fight after five rounds at the V-League.

Anyway, Coach Kiatisuk is still on the bright side. "The battle is over in the past. Now we're going to focus on the next battle'- Da Nang at Pleiku Day in 10/7. The target of the team is still not changing- trying to have a spot on the front yard and say you.

However, this pawnbroker admits to win on the courtyard is not an easy mission with HAGL at the present, but the army is still lacking a man who can't replace Kim Dong-su. "The team must try to fight each battle one by one. I believe the audience understands and sympathize for the team, we're short of the task but still trying best for them", Coach Kiatisuk says.
