SLNA AT THE BOTTOM OF THE TABLE

Meeting in the situation of being ranked at the two ends of the rankings, the Thanh - Nghe derby was still as exciting as expected. In the match at Vinh Stadium, the two neighboring teams gave their all in every move. As the youngest team in V-League, the efforts and determination of SLNA players helped narrow the gap in expertise. However, will cannot replace everything because overall, the team in the top Thanh Hoa is still better than SLNA, who has not known victory since the beginning of the season. A little bit of superiority in experience helped the away team score a goal in the 36th minute, when they took advantage of a moment of carelessness of the opponent to counterattack quickly with a goal by Ngoc My. SLNA's game was a little brighter in the second half, but a few isolated names like Ohala and Van Cuong could not help them penetrate the opponent's solid defense. In addition, Van Thanh's red card in the 83rd minute seemed to put an end to the efforts of the Nghe team.

Thanh Hoa FC's victory at Vinh Stadium is not too surprising, because it has been 5 years since SLNA has won against their neighbor at Vinh Stadium. SLNA officially fell to the bottom of the table (with 4 points but losing to Hai Phong and Da Nang FC on goal difference) and there are many storms ahead. Meanwhile, the victory at Vinh Stadium helped the Thanh team gain 14 points and rise to the top.

C THE PRECIOUS VICTORY OF BINH DINH CLUB

After a season of flying high with the runner-up position, this season Binh Dinh Club has weakened a lot after the departure of a series of pillars, causing many difficulties for coach Bui Doan Quang Huy and his team. However, with their utmost efforts, they have earned 3 precious points in the "6-point" match with direct opponent Quang Nam. Alisson's goal from Van Khoa's assist helped the martial arts team have their first victory at home in Quy Nhon. More importantly, this victory helped Binh Dinh Club break away from the danger zone to temporarily rise to 8th place with 8 points, 4 points more than the "red light" group including SLNA, Da Nang and Hai Phong.

Meanwhile, Quang Nam FC is feeling the heat of the relegation race. Although they have 6 points, Coach Van Sy Son's players are in a dangerous situation as their strikers have only scored 3 goals in 7 matches. Notably, in the last 4 matches, the Quang Nam team has not celebrated a single goal. Fortunately, they have 2 consecutive home matches ahead, against bottom-placed SLNA (November 15) and Hanoi FC (November 19). That will be an opportunity for the former 2017 champion to accumulate more points to feel more secure entering the break that will last more than 1 month later.

In the latest match on November 10, The Cong Viettel Club welcomed the visiting team Ha Tinh in a match full of red cards, with 2 players leaving the field early: Trong Hoang (Ha Tinh Club, 10th minute), Van Hao (The Cong Viettel Club, 37th minute). Although falling behind after Khuat Van Khang's goal (27th minute), Mbo's goal (78th minute) helped Ha Tinh Club snatch a dramatic point to continue being the only team still undefeated in V-League 2024 - 2025. As for The Cong Viettel Club, 1 point also helped coach Nguyen Duc Thang and his team rise to 3rd place with 12 points.
