Phan Van Duc: 'SLNA has a great advantage against Hanoi FC'

Song Lam Nghe An FC will march to Hang Day stadium against hosts Hanoi. Despite being underestimated, midfielder Phan Van Duc still thinks that he and his teammates have certain advantages.

The advantage of SLNA mentioned by Phan Van Duc is that duo Duy Manh and Dinh Trong are injured and unable to play. The player with shirt number 20 said that Hanoi FC would 'get the compensation'.

Phan Van Duc shared: "Hanoi FC is a very strong team, they will also take compensation for the defense when playing with any team in Vietnam. However, their defenses lacking Duy Manh and Dinh Trong will be an advantage for us when both are very special players.

I am very proud that the team has gone through 4 matches without conceding any goals. My team and I will make every effort to maintain this achievement. This season is very difficult when the pillars in the team like Khac Ngoc, Nguyen Manh have left. As an experienced player in the team, I will try my best to help the club get good results "- according to VOV.
