Coach Binh Dinh admitted that this year's Hong Linh Ha Tinh squad has better quality, their playing style is calm but they are very good at punishing their opponents' mistakes.

Hong Linh Ha Tinh defeated Binh Dinh, rising to 4th place on the rankings.

In the 90 minutes at Ha Tinh Stadium on the afternoon of June 4, Hong Linh Ha Tinh (HLHT) created a surprise when defeating the star-studded Topenland Binh Dinh Club with a score of 2-1. This victory helped the Hong mountain team rise to 4th place on the rankings. Meanwhile, the Vo land team fell to 6th place.

In the last 4 rounds, Binh Dinh did not win any matches, lost 2 and drew 2. This defeat makes the away team's championship race even more difficult.

Possessing a star-studded squad and the foreign player who scored the most goals in the tournament, Topenland Binh Dinh still performed blandly and lacked innovation.

Binh Dinh's attacks lacked cohesion and were easily neutralized by the HLHT defense. When the offense was almost harmless, Binh Dinh's defense revealed many gaps for the HLHT players to exploit.

Before the match, the HLHT Coaching Board carefully analyzed the away team's playing style. And then HLHT gave Topenland Binh Dinh a surprise. Instead of defending in large numbers and waiting for the opponent's mistake, the Hong Mountain team proactively approached quickly, taking advantage of the away team's mistakes.

The wingers of the team from the land of Vo were closely followed by the defenders of HLHT, making it almost impossible to make any dangerous attacks. The two goals of the home team were both lightning-fast counterattacks from the wings.

Speaking at the press conference after the match, Coach Nguyen Duc Thang (Topenland Binh Dinh Club) admitted: “HLHT’s victory was well deserved. The home team players had more desire, they punished us for our mistakes.

At the moment, HLHT is in better form than us. This year's HLHT squad is of better quality, plays more cohesively, their playing style is calm but very quick in punishing the opponent's mistakes. HLHT plays well both away and at home, it is very difficult to defeat them at this time.

Binh Dinh's performance when V.League returned after the break was not good. The team is losing too many points, losing matches that are not worth it, clearly we are not satisfied with the current situation. Binh Dinh will continue to try, first of all focusing on the goal of entering the top 8."

Topenland Binh Dinh coach said that it is very difficult to defeat HLHT at this stage.

Meanwhile, coach Nguyen Thanh Cong was pleased with his players’ performance. The strategist from Nghe An added: “The number of matches during this period is very high, but our players still maintain their desire to compete. This victory helps us get closer to the goal of being in the top 8 teams competing for the championship.

Besides, it will help the team's spirit to be higher, more confident in the away match at Hanoi Police Club. Our goal is still to win at least 1 point in the next match."

After this round, V.League will take a break to make way for friendly matches of the national team. At 7:15 p.m. on June 23, when the tournament returns, HLHT will be a guest at the Hanoi Police Stadium. Fans expect that the Hong Mountain team will continue to excel and gain more points.
