Why is Hanoi Club so upset?

In round 12 of V-League 2024 taking place this afternoon (March 3.3), Hanoi Club is a guest at Khanh Hoa Club's August 19 Nha Trang stadium, with the goal of forcing points to regain its image.

In the previous round, they lost 2-3 to Nam Dinh after leading 2-1 in the 90+3 minute, surprising fans. In previous football seasons, Mr. Hien's team was always the "bogey man" in the V-League. There are times when they want to win, no matter who the opponent is. During that golden age, Hanoi Club won 6 V-League championships, 3 National Cup championships and 5 National Super Cups.

However, in this year's football season, Mr. Hien's team inexplicably declined. In the last 5 matches, they only won 1 match against Ho Chi Minh City Club. Losing its inherent strength, Hanoi Club can now lose to any team. The proof is that they lost to LPBank HAGL Club 0-2 in the 8th round.

The team was in decline, so beheading the general was understandable. Hanoi Club has used up to 4 coaches this season, and this number is unlikely to stop. Changing too many generals only causes the team to lose stability because the players have to constantly adapt to the philosophy of each different coach. After Quang Hai, Doan Van Hau and many other good players left, Hanoi Club did not receive any significant reinforcements, causing public opinion to think that perhaps Mr. Hien is tired of football?

Returning to the match against host Khanh Hoa, the team led by coach Iwamasa Daiki has just said goodbye to goalkeeper Bui Tan Truong (joining Binh Phuoc team), so goalkeeper Quan Van Chuan will guard the goal. Their attack still has heavy guns like Pham Tuan Hai, Nguyen Van Quyet, and Denilson, so they are enough to tear the home team's net. The problem is that coach Iwamasa Daiki needs to strengthen the defense, because they are the team with the second most goals conceded in V-League 2024 with 17 goals, only less than Hai Phong Club (19 goals).

If they continue to lose in this match, this will be a forgettable season for the team that was once a great force in Vietnamese football.

Coach Kiatisak races with coach Vu Hong Viet

At Hang Day Stadium, Hanoi Police Club (CAHN) will welcome the away team Ha Tinh (18 p.m.). Since leading CAHN Club, Coach Kiatisak has continuously succeeded with 3 wins to climb to 3rd place with 21 points, threatening Nam Dinh Club's top spot.

Coach Kiatisak did a great job focusing on strengthening the defense and deploying an effective counter-attack with the people he had on hand. Under the Thai coach, players Nguyen Quang Hai, Ho Tan Tai, Nguyen Van Thanh, Bui Hoang Viet Anh... all played well, helping this team play well at home and away. With current form, CAHN Club can take all 3 points against Ha Tinh Club.

If CAHN Club wins, it will be a huge pressure on top team Nam Dinh. In this round, the Nam team encountered difficulties because they had to be guests against host SLNA (18 hours). Although the Nghe team played well, it was very uncomfortable when playing at Vinh stadium. Therefore, if they cannot take advantage of the strength of the attack with strikers Nguyen Van Toan, Rafaelson, and Hendrio, coach Vu Hong Viet's team may be divided and the score shortened by coach Kiatisak's team. .

The remaining matches of round 12 of V-League 2024 take place this afternoon (March 3.3): 17:19: Quang Nam meets Binh Dinh; 15:XNUMX p.m.: Ho Chi Minh City meets Binh Duong.
