Despite the win, Coach Mano Polking believes it was unfavorable for CAHN to concede 2 goals to the opponent in less than the last 10 minutes of the match.
In the "capital derby" at Hang Day Stadium on the evening of August 28, CAHN secured a convincing 4-2 win over Hanoi, maintaining their second place on the league table.
Evaluating the overall match, Coach Mano Polking expressed satisfaction, stating:"CAHN started well in the first half, controlling the ball for a long time and creating many scoring chances. During the first 45 minutes, our team dominated the game, but in the latter half of the second half, we lost focus, allowing the opponent to take over and score 2 goals."
I highly appreciate the team’s performance. The players fought hard and followed the tactics. Over the past month, this was CAHN's best performance," he said.
"""As I mentioned, CAHN played well for 80 minutes, but were shaky in the final 10. Conceding 2 goals after leading 4-0 is not good. Some players have played a lot, so I had to rotate, like Dinh Bac. The young players coming on need time to adapt, so their performance was not great. We will keep improving and adjusting," the German-Brazilian coach added.
Regarding Alan’s performance — who scored a hat-trick for the home team today — Coach Mano Polking gave high praise:
""He currently has impressive goal numbers and performances, making him one of the best strikers in V-League. However, Alan’s sharpness comes from the support of his teammates." Notably, Alan is currently leading the V-League top scorer chart with 5 goals in 3 matches.
