"Today, Viettel Club played well, they have young energy and caused many difficulties for Binh Dinh. In this match, we did not play as expected in the first half, but when we improved in the second half, we were behind. Our players have just returned from injury, so their physical strength is not guaranteed. However, I am still satisfied with the players' efforts despite the unsatisfactory result," Coach Nguyen Duc Thang shared, after Binh Dinh's 1-2 defeat to Viettel Club in round 8 of V-League 2023 on May 20.
Hoang Duc's double helped Viettel Club win 3 dramatic points in round 8 against Binh Dinh Club - the third-placed team in V-League 2023. According to coach Duc Thang, Binh Dinh Club had opportunities but could not take advantage of them.
The match between Binh Dinh Club and Viettel Club had many collisions.
"Actually, that's football and that's what makes it exciting and dramatic. We had a chance to take the lead in the 90th minute when Tien Dat's volley went wide of the goal so we couldn't score and let the opponent finish. That's one of the unlucky things in football," said coach Duc Thang.
Binh Dinh's strategist was also not satisfied with the color of Viettel's goalkeeper's shirt in this match. He commented: "I am not satisfied with the referee in today's match when Viettel's goalkeeper wore a shirt that was almost the same color as Binh Dinh's shirt. We were also given similar trouble about the shirt color in the match against Ho Chi Minh City Club, but the referee still asked us to change shirts. I think the organization of the match was not good." Referee Tran Dinh Thinh was in charge of this match.
Viettel Club has 3 important points to break away
"Binh Dinh Club always tries hard in each match to get into the top 8 soon, but playing away after a long break is always very difficult. The coaching staff needs to sit down to discuss the preparation. In this match, the team's physical condition is not guaranteed and not as good as Viettel Club. In Binh Dinh, it is cooler than Hanoi , so even though we came here 3 days ago, the players' physical condition is still not guaranteed. We have many players over 30 years old, so it is difficult to compete again after a long break," Coach Duc Thang shared more about the team's difficulties.
Meanwhile, coach Thach Bao Khanh of Viettel Club said: "This was a very emotional match when both teams played well, a good match. The players after SEA Games 32 still maintained their physical condition and were not injured, so they maintained their form from SEA Games 32 until now. Football must have luck, but it only comes to teams that make an effort and do not give up. Today, Viettel Club made an effort and scored a goal in the last minute."
Viettel's coach shared about Hoang Duc's goal: "I was not surprised by Hoang Duc's header goal because in training sessions he often scores goals with his head. He has diverse skills so today he scored a goal with his head, I was not surprised."
