Comments and predictions Thanh Hoa vs Viettel
The first interesting thing is that whichever team wins the cup, it will be the first time in history. In the past, even The Cong – an illustrious “monument” of the country’s football (with 5 national championships), also considered a “forerunner” of Viettel – was only represented in the competition 3 times. finals, but they all lost. After The Cong was wiped out, and Viettel Group took over the young squad of the Military Sports Center and branded it with the club, Viettel also had one more time in the final of the National Cup in the 2020 season, but lost again to Hanoi and received the title of runner-up once more. No wonder the public used to see it as a “snatch” for this team. But the past is over, and now Viettel is a team of equal strength and stable performance, even a candidate for the championship of Night Wolf V.League 1 this season until 2 rounds before 2 rounds. final.
Thanh Hoa vs Viettel.
Their opponent, Dong A Thanh Hoa also inherits the tradition of a team that has fought in the national arena for many years. Five years ago, FLC Thanh Hoa team also participated in the 2018 National Cup final and lost to Becamex Binh Duong. In other words, for Thanh delegates, the National Cup is also a desirable title to be able to add to their traditional room (which already had a National Super Cup in 2010 after receiving the V.League position again. of The Cong; 2 runner-ups of V.League 1 in the 2017 and 2018 seasons and 2 times 3rd in 2014 and 2015).
Here, I would like to mention more about the interesting relationship between the two clubs. In 2009, when the name The Cong was erased from the V.League playing field, their 2010 national championship was transferred to Thanh Hoa and about half of the squad continued to play in the V.League under the new color of Lam Son Thanh. Hoa (won the National Super Cup after winning SHB.DN). Meanwhile, The Cong’s youth lines continue to be maintained by the Youth Football Training Center invested by Viettel. However, it was not until 2015 that the name Viettel officially appeared in the professional football system after this team won the National Second Division to start competing in the 2016 First Division and then win tickets to the next level. V.League 1 from 2019 – exactly 10 years after Cong Cong dissolved.
Back to the professional issue, there is one more interesting thing to discuss before this confrontation: Both still have a chance to win bronze in V.League 1 while ranked 3rd (Viettel) and 4th respectively. (East Asia, Thanh Hoa). Dong A Thanh Hoa meets the Hanoi Police (the No. 1 champion candidate, who is temporarily leading the rankings with a distance of 2 points compared to the team behind), while Viettel Club will face Hanoi (the candidate for the second position). No. 2) in the final round of Night Wolf V.League 1-2023 taking place on August 27. So it will be a great ending for any team that has just won the National Cup and then won bronze in V.League 1, or at least one of the two titles above is also an encouraging result.
The jubilant 4-1 victory over the PVF-CAND First-class delegate in the semi-finals showed the determination of Dong A Thanh Hoa. But Viettel’s victory over TopenLand Binh Dinh also proves the desire of this team in this year’s National Cup. A final of the 2023 National Cup is considered “rivalry” and is well worth the wait.
