The joy of victory for Binh Dinh Club

Coach Thomas Dooley's first change was to bench young talent Khuất Văn Khang, giving Trương Tiến Anh a chance to start again. Due to the absence of midfielder Jaha, the visiting team's midfield was quickly overwhelmed and crumbled against Bình Định's strong midfield, led by Văn Thuận and Văn Triền.
After a first half with no chances converted into goals, the Quy Nhon stadium witnessed a goalfest in the second half. It started with a tactical header from Van Duc that unexpectedly beat goalkeeper Van Phong in the 49th minute.
Midfielder Van Thuan outshone his younger teammates.

Shortly afterwards, The Cong Viettel equalized in the 58th minute when Hoang Duc tapped the ball into the net from close range after a perfect cross from Bruno. However, this balanced game did not last long.
In quick succession, in the 72nd and 77th minutes, Binh Dinh FC scored two more goals. Van Duc scored his second goal with a powerful shot into the top corner of the net, before Alan extended the lead to 3-1.
Coach Thomas Dooley's debut became even more difficult when, in the 90+4th minute, midfielder Mac Hong Quan scored the goal that sealed a 4-1 victory for the home team in Quy Nhon. This heavy defeat will undoubtedly give the former US national team captain a lot of work to do in the coming days.

For their part, Binh Dinh FC continues to soar under new head coach Bui Doan Quang Huy. The team from Binh Dinh has 13 points, temporarily ranking 3rd, trailing the two leading teams, Binh Duong and Thanh Hoa, by only 3 points.
In the next round, Binh Dinh FC will play away at Lach Tray Stadium against Hai Phong FC on December 27th, while The Cong Viettel FC will face a challenging away match at Thien Truong Stadium against Nam Dinh FC.
