Welcoming The Cong – Viettel in round 8 of V.League 2023/2024 at Thien Truong Stadium, Nam Dinh Green Steel had a clear victory with a score of 3-0 thanks to goals from Rafaelson, Hendrio and Van Toan. .

Not many thought that The Cong – Viettel could lose 1-4 to Binh Dinh in the previous round. Even though they are not in good form, the team still has many quality players from the Vietnamese national team such as Nguyen Thanh Binh, Phan Tuan Tai, Khuat Van Khang and especially Hoang Duc.

Changed generals but The Cong – Viettel did not change their fortunes. Right in coach Thomas Dooley’s debut match, The Cong – Viettel lost to Binh Dinh. The playing style of the home team at Hang Day Stadium did not improve much as they still played without cohesion and the defense continuously made mistakes. With such an unstable squad, Nam Dinh Green Steel’s march to the Thien Truong fire pan is indeed too difficult.

Nam Dinh Green Steel still plays with a fiery attack, as coach Vu Hong Viet said, making up for the offense. Maybe the Nam team is not too stable, but they have the two best foreign strikers in Vietnam at the moment: Hendrio and Rafelson. Just one individual shining situation of these two strikers can determine the outcome of the match.

It was the sublimation of Hendrio and Rafelson that relieved a lot of pressure on the Nam Dinh Blue Steel defense.

At minute 30, The Cong – Viettel’s defense had an offside trap error. Rafelson easily escaped from the face and opened the score for Nam Dinh Blue Steel with a decisive finish.

In the 37th minute, Duc Chien made a mistake by allowing Hendrio to easily get the ball in his own half before speeding down and finishing to defeat goalkeeper The Cong – Viettel.

The pair of Rafelson – Hendrio caused the The Cong – Viettel Club to face many difficulties.

In the second half, The Cong – Viettel players tried to attack, but could not score against goalkeeper Nguyen Manh.

In the 64th minute, from Rafaelson’s slot, Van Toan escaped to face goalkeeper Pham Van Phong. The Nam Dinh Green Steel striker dribbled the ball past goalkeeper The Cong – Viettel and scored into an empty net.

The trio of scorers for Nam Dinh Green Steel Club are Rafelson, Hendrio, and Van Toan. The 3-0 victory helped Nam Dinh Green Steel continue to monopolize the top spot in the 2023/2024 V.League rankings.

What did the coach of The Cong Club – Viettel say after the loss to Nam Dinh?

Nam Dinh Green Steel Club won 3-0 against Viettel The Cong Club in the match of round 8 of V.League 2023/2024 thanks to goals from Rafaelson, Hendrio and Van Toan. 3 points in this match helped coach Vu Hong Viet and his team consolidate the top spot in the table with 19 points, 3 points more than the second team.

Sharing after the match, coach Thomas Dooley of Viettel Sports Club admitted: “This match we lacked a bit of luck to score and made a few mistakes even though we played well. Even though the score was like that, I am satisfied.” When the whole team shows good spirit, hopefully things will quickly get better in the future.

Our players play with their own characteristics, not going to Thien Truong to set up a bus in front of the goal. In fact, in the match, the goals lost came from individual mistakes. The club is having problems that cannot be resolved in one or two days. The upcoming break will be an opportunity for the whole team to prepare everything again, trying to get better results for the next stage.”

Coach Dooley also talked about Jaha’s absence: “Jaha is injured, Bruno is not in good shape and Essam has not found himself… Every little bit of difficulty has become a factor in why we are in our current position on the rankings.

But that’s no excuse. We have proven that if we have the best physical strength to serve our playing style, the team will also cause difficulties for many opponents. Anyway, we created football according to our wishes.”

The Cong Viettel’s start to the 2023/2024 season is not really impressive. Through 6 rounds in V.League 2023/2024, the team won 2, drew 2 and lost 2, got 8 points and ranked 9th on the rankings. Most recently, they lost 0-2 to “neighbor” Hanoi FC at Hang Day Stadium. This is a very disappointing result, especially when this season, the The Cong brand has returned to the team.

An inevitable decision has been made. Accordingly, The Cong Viettel leaders decided to change positions between coach Thach Bao Khanh and Mr. Thomas Dooley. Accordingly, Mr. Thomas Dooley will take on the role of head coach of the club in the near future, while coach Thach Bao Khanh will sit as Technical Director. A decision to change roles is necessary for the military team at this time, in order to soon return to the championship race.
