Nguyen Xuan Son has not scored on the day of his Vietnamese citizenship debut
In the opening match of the first match at Nam Dinh Club's Thien Truong home field in V-League 2024 - 2025, coach Vu Hong Viet also introduced striker Rafaelson as officially becoming a Vietnamese citizen with the new name Nguyen Xuan Son.
Thanks to this advantage, the reigning V-League champions started with 4 Western players, in addition to Xuan Son, Hendrio, De Jesus and Caio Cesar. But the all-star lineup of Nam Dinh Club struggled against the resilient Quang Nam defense.
Fortunately, Hendiro's goal (Xuan Son assisted) helped the home team win 1-0, thereby getting the first 3 points of the tournament, escaping the bottom half of the table and rising to 8th place, returning to the top race.
Hendrio (middle) scored the only goal to bring 3 points to Nam Dinh Club.
Meanwhile, the away team Quang Nam suffered their second consecutive defeat (5 goals conceded, 0 goals scored) and finished bottom of the table with 0 points. The road ahead promises to be very bumpy for the team aiming to be in the top 5 this season.
The match at Thien Truong Stadium also officially closed the second round of V-League 2024 - 2025, witnessing the two teams that "caught the bullet" in the last minute of last season, HAGL and Ha Tinh , sharing the top spot. They are also the rare names to have won all after the first two matches.
Coach Le Quang Trai is helping HAGL fly high
Tien Linh's Binh Duong Club is temporarily ranked 3rd with 4 points, while last season's phenomenon, Ho Chi Minh City Club, continues to surprise by ranking right behind due to a lower goal difference. Coach Phung Thanh Phuong has shown his cool hand when helping the "Red Battleship" have a thrilling victory at Quy Nhon Stadium of Binh Dinh Club.
As expected, last season's runner-up Binh Dinh Club has weakened a lot after losing a series of key players. Coupled with bad luck in decisive situations, coach Bui Doan Quang Huy and his team are currently second to last, with 0 points, the same as Quang Nam Club.
