Coach Lee Tae Hoon accused Saigon FC players of lying on the pitch to buy time

In the match that just ended not long ago, HAGL Club dropped an unfortunate victory against Saigon FC.

Heading up very early after the goal of striker Chevaughn Walsh, the mountain team could not keep this advantage until the end of the match. The loose defense once again made HAGL pay the price, when they let striker Geovane easily put the ball into an empty net to bring the equalizer goal, as well as 1 point in this match.

"We scored first but then it was equalized, so it was a pity. However, I also thank the players when they tried their best.

When playing against Nam Dinh and Hanoi, we had many injured players, so we had to change the team, not like practicing at home. The players therefore have not yet adapted. Now we have the right team and play like the way we prepare,” said Lee tae-hoon.

One thing worth noting is that in the last minutes of the match, the Saigon FC players were constantly in pain and laid down for a long time. Coach Lee Tae Hoon considered this unprofessional:

"I think the Saigon FC players are really hurt. But they shouldn't lie in the pitch for so long. I think the Vietnamese players should be more professional. The fans certainly don't want the game to be interrupted like that. "

With 1 point earned in this match, HAGL players are currently temporarily in 6th place on the table with 8 points after 5 rounds. This is not a bad position for Lee Tae-hoon’s team at the moment.
