Hanoi FC coach hopes it won’t rain

Before the 2020 National Cup final, coach Chu Dinh Nghiem hoped that it would not rain too much to reduce the impact on Hanoi FC’s game.

It is not based on the results of the friendlies

Overtaking Ho Chi Minh City “rival”, Hanoi FC will face club Viettel in the 2020 National Cup final. They have just beaten their rival in the last two friendlies in September 2020.

In the last two seasons, Hanoi FC did not lose every time they faced club Viettel.

However, coach Chu Dinh Nghiem remains quite cautious: “A derby is always difficult. Viettel’s team this season has a lot of good players, changing their game a lot. It will be a tough match with Hanoi FC. The results of friendly matches say nothing, if the psychology of self-esteem or complacency is not necessarily good. “

If it is possible to win the next match, Hanoi FC could be the first team to successfully defend the National Cup championship after 16 years. Captain Van Quyet stated that the whole team wanted to reap the collective title, instead of thinking about individual titles.

In the next match, not only are Hanoi FC absent from many important players, but the Viettel club is not served by a number of pillars. In addition to Ho Khac Ngoc, Duong Van Hao and Nguyen Viet Phong (penalty card), player Trong Hoang gave up the chance to play due to injury.

I hope I don’t have heavy rain

The final match of the 2020 National Cup is likely to take place in heavy rain conditions. This raised concerns about the impact on the professional quality of the match, especially with Hanoi FC’s starting style.

“If it rains a lot or there is standing water on the pitch, it will affect a lot because Hanoi FC plays a small game, which greatly affects the playability. Of course, in any situation, depending on the weather on the field, there will be different plans, “commented coach Chu Dinh Nghiem.

Meanwhile, Captain Van Quyet admitted that during the tournament hiatus due to epidemics, Hanoi FC practiced more in attack. At the same time, the Hanoi FC captain hopes to have a brilliant person to claim victory in the next match.

The final match of the 2020 National Cup between Hanoi and Viettel will take place at 6:00 p.m. on September 20 at Hang Day Stadium.
