Ha Tinh won backwards in the National Cup

*Score: Nhat Minh 30′, 65′, Van Long 75′ – Santana 15′, Rodrigo 82′.

When the referee blew the final whistle, the players and Ha Tinh coaching staff hugged each other and shouted.

Before the match, the home team was under a lot of pressure. Through the first four rounds of the V-League 2022, they only know how to draw and lose, standing at the penultimate position with two points, one more point but two more games than Nam Dinh itself.

The pressure increased for Ha Tinh because of the bad luck at the beginning of the match. In the 9th minute, Van Huy was denied a goal for offside. Six minutes later, the home team was awarded a penalty, and only escaped defeat thanks to goalkeeper Quang Tuan who neutralized Rodrigo’s kick. But only about 30 seconds later, from the corner kick on the right wing, center-back Alisson Pereira Santana rushed to head home to open the score 1-0 Nam Dinh.

Constantly being pressured, Ha Tinh thought that she would suffer more sadness this season. Suddenly, Dao Nhat Minh – a player rarely used in matches in the V-League – shines. In the 30th minute, from a wave of the ball at home, he rushed into Nam Dinh’s penalty area to catch the ball and then tire over the head of goalkeeper Xuan Viet, equalizing 1-1. In the 65th minute, Nhat Minh seemed to “come up from the ground” to receive a cross on the left wing, cushioning the ball over Xuan Viet’s legs from about 6 meters away.

As if relieved of the burden, the host played excitedly, attacked coherently and scored the third goal by Van Long’s beautiful heart phase, which came from Van Duc’s pass on the right. Nam Dinh’s efforts only helped them remove one more goal thanks to a chest support phase and a neat finish in the penalty area of ​​striker Rodrigo in the 82nd minute.

On April 6 and 7, the National Cup qualifiers continued with seven other matches with the participation of four clubs playing in the V-League and 10 teams in the First Division.
