Coming from behind to win 3-1 against Binh Duong in round 21 of V-League 2024-2025 on May 3, Hong Linh Ha Tinh Club became the team with the most unbeaten matches in the tournament, including 7 wins and 13 draws.

Although Hong Linh Ha Tinh Club does not have many stars, it is a cohesive team, playing enthusiastically with a resilient spirit. The stability in tactics helps coach Nguyen Thanh Cong's team not to be afraid of strong opponents, achieving impressive results to firmly hold a position in the top 4 of the rankings. After 21 matches, the team has only suffered one defeat in the match against the host Hai Phong.

Considered a young team in the V-League (promoted from the 2020 season), coach Nguyen Thanh Cong and his team are gradually asserting their position on the Vietnamese football map. Last season, the Ha Tinh team was still in a state of losing strength, struggling to win the play-off match to stay in the V-League, but this season they have become a championship candidate.

The gap between Hong Linh Ha Tinh and the top 3 teams is only 2 points with 5 matches left in the tournament. If they maintain stable performance and win the rematch against Nam Dinh in the closing round, Hong Linh Ha Tinh can even be in the top 2 teams in the final round.

The latest match against Binh Duong Club is a testament to Hong Linh Ha Tinh's high form. Having been taken an early lead by the away team, coach Nguyen Thanh Cong's team aggressively pushed forward to attack, put pressure on the team and made a spectacular comeback to win. Winning 3 convincing points right at home, Hong Linh Ha Tinh has risen to fourth place with 34 points.

Hong Linh Ha Tinh Club also showed comprehensive progress in terms of playing style and fighting spirit. Under the guidance of coach Nguyen Thanh Cong - famous for his philosophy of "knowing yourself and knowing your opponent", the team played disciplined, tight and took advantage of rare opportunities.

After 21 matches, Hong Linh Ha Tinh and Nam Dinh are the two teams that have conceded the fewest goals in the V-League, with 14 goals each. This is the time when Ha Tinh fans have the right to hope for a season that creates a milestone in the team's history.

However, the team is also facing personnel challenges. One of the biggest concerns when the season ends is the possibility of losing key players. Young midfielder Viktor Le and Vietnamese-American central defender Leygley Adou Minh are being eyed by many "big" teams after their outstanding performances.

With 3 goals and 4 assists after 20 matches in all competitions, Viktor Le is a source of creative inspiration for Hong Linh Ha Tinh. His performance has forced the club's management to find a way to retain him, avoiding the lure of other teams. This midfielder of Vietnamese origin has extended his contract with the Hong mountain team for 2 years.
