SGP Has an Embarrassing Performance Right at the Start of the New Season
Arena of Fame (ĐTDV) Spring 2025 officially kicks off. This is always one of the most exciting esports events, attracting the attention of the Vietnamese gamers. The professional teams participating in the competition carry the hopes and pride of their fans.
Over the years, Saigon Phantom (SGP) has always been one of the top teams, beloved for their sharp gameplay and resounding success. However, this season has started with significant difficulties as the team has failed to win in their first matches, causing concerns among the fan community.
Specifically, right in the early matches, this team has faced bitter defeats. The players of Saigon Phantom have not shown the resilience expected by their fans. These disappointing results have raised concerns about the team’s competitiveness this season. Currently, the stats they hold are: “2 matches – 0 wins – goal difference -4 – ranked 6th in the standings”. This situation has led fans to ask: “What is happening with SGP…?”.
This result has also sparked outrage within the fan community. Many people have begun to question the quality of the team lineup, the coach’s tactics, and the preparations of the players.
SGP.Fish Speaks Out
Amid the pressure and storms facing Saigon Phantom, player Fish posted: “Every season I choose one joy”. In the comments below, his girlfriend also defended her boyfriend and encouraged fans. She affirmed that the team is in the process of “clearing fans”. She also called for fans to be optimistic and trust in the team’s abilities.
Also in the comments, a straightforward opinion pointed out: “It’s not that I’m criticizing Fish’s decline in performance or personal issues, but realistically it seems Fish has not found joy in this game anymore. When he no longer sees joy or interest in playing this game, Fish can only handle his skills as a basic role instead of how he used to handle them with finesse, outsmarting opponents…
I hope he reflects on his responsibility to the supporting community, see how much people have placed their expectations on him, and not stop when he has achieved what he wanted. Because once he has achieved what he wanted, he should be grateful for what helped him get there.”.
Immediately, the player also offered an explanation: “Who wouldn’t want to try their best, but with those games, the pink fish premise, couldn’t do anything, so they played their role basically in a difficult game. If the game had won early, then everything would have gone right.”.
It is known that in sports, especially esports, nothing is easy. Losses, no matter how regrettable, are part of the development process. Each team, each player must face challenges, and it is during these moments that their perseverance and determination are revealed.
Saigon Phantom, despite facing defeats in the first matches, remains a strong team with talented players full of desire to win. As fans continue to support and stand by the team in every circumstance, they will become an invaluable source of motivation for the players to rise up.
