In Round 7, Đông Á Thanh Hóa travels to Hưng Yên to face PVF-CAND. This match is considered crucial for both teams struggling at the bottom of the table.
Although PVF-CAND entered as a "wild card" after Quảng Nam dissolved, they are not as weak as expected. Under coach Thạch Bảo Khanh’s guidance, the team shows modern, disciplined, and resilient play. Young players like Nguyễn Thanh Nhàn, Nguyễn Xuân Bắc, and Nguyễn Hiểu Minh bring energy and are always ready to surprise stronger opponents.
Conversely, Thanh Hóa is in a severe crisis. After 6 rounds, the team from Thanh Hóa has yet to taste victory, earning only 3 points and sitting at the bottom of the standings. The absence of captain Doãn Ngọc Tân due to injury has weakened the midfield’s cohesion and experience. The attack lacks efficiency, and the defense often makes mistakes, causing them to drop points repeatedly.
Pressure is mounting on coach Choi Won Kwon and his team. A win now would not only break Thanh Hóa’s bad streak but also boost the entire squad’s morale. However, facing a stable PVF-CAND team with home advantage, this task will be challenging.
The match in Hưng Yên promises to be intense. PVF-CAND aims to break away from the danger zone, while Thanh Hóa must win to climb out of the bottom. In this life-or-death battle, composure and calmness in front of goal will be the keys to deciding the outcome.
