Coach Chu Dinh Nghiem: 'Quang Hai can't play right at CAHN'

Since returning to CAHN, midfielder Quang Hai has always been the main kick. Through five games, he has not scored or assisted. The performance of the capital team also leveled off, with three losses, one win and one draw. Yesterday, when CAHN lost to Hai Phong 0-2 in the third round of the championship race in phase II, Quang Hai continued to lackluster, and had to leave the field in the middle of the second half. After the match, coach Flavio admitted that his students were too pressured to sublimate.

Coach Chu Dinh Nghiem commented: "Regarding CAHN, Quang Hai did not play properly, leading to not being able to promote his capacity. Previously, Hanoi FC often played with a 4-1-4-1 or 4- 4 diagram. 3-3, Quang Hai is arranged to kick in the armpit, very dangerous. Now, CAHN kicks 4-2-3-1, Quang Hai often drifts to the edge or defends, it is very difficult for him. school, Quang Hai will be very dangerous".

Mr. Nghiem bravely gave Quang Hai the opportunity to play in the top leagues in the country since 2016. During his five years here, he turned the player born in 1997 into the top star of Vietnamese football, winning everything. titles from the V-League to the National Cup, the National Super Cup to the Golden Ball.

During this period, when Quang Hai was unstable in form, Mr. Nghiem was fiercely on the bench or substituted to help his students "crave the ball", avoid pressure and regain a better feeling. Nghiem left Hanoi FC in 2021 and a year later Quang Hai also parted with the capital team to move to France. Because he could not compete for the main kick in the country, in June Quang Hai liquidated his contract a year early and returned to Vietnam.

Talking about the 2-0 win against CAHN yesterday, coach Chu Dinh Nghiem said: "I'm surprised. Hai Phong is not in good form, losing two matches in a row, while CAHN is a strong team, possessing many good players. We won because the opponent was impatient and lost control. They wanted to settle the game early, so they rushed to attack. When they had to concede a goal early, this team couldn't find the connection anymore. Midfielders Pham Van Luan and Hoang Van Toan has not been able to control the midfield."

On Hang Day Stadium, Hai Phong held the ball 39% but scored twice. Trieu Viet Hung opened the scoring in the 12th minute with a quick flick of the ball close to the city, and Nguyen Tuan Anh increased the gap in the fourth minute of injury time.

Hai Phong rose to sixth with 22 points. CAHN fell to third with 28 points, one point behind the two top teams, Hanoi FC and Thanh Hoa.
