The victory has given the Ho Chi Minh City Police Club a boost in form.
The Ha Tinh stadium has often been considered a dangerous place for big teams, as evidenced by how Ha Tinh FC defeated Hanoi FC 2-1, or how they beat Hai Phong FC 1-0 just in the previous round, leaving coach Harry Kewell's team in a difficult position.
That's why many people were worried about Ho Chi Minh City Police FC when the team traveled to Central Vietnam with a record of three consecutive defeats, conceding 10 goals without scoring a single goal.
But in the most difficult circumstances, the Ho Chi Minh City Police Club team managed to achieve three goals simultaneously: scoring again, keeping a clean sheet, and rediscovering the feeling of victory after a three-round winless streak.

Lee Williams, a talented young player of Vietnamese descent, scored a goal in the 12th minute, which he and the entire team successfully defended until the end of the match, securing a valuable narrow victory.
This victory helps Ho Chi Minh City Police FC regain momentum and get back on track, securing three crucial points to maintain a top-five position with six rounds remaining in the league, where coach Le Huynh Duc's team has been given the goal of finishing in the top positions of the V-League.
Ho Chi Minh City Police FC will gain confidence heading into their away match at Thien Truong Stadium against Nam Dinh FC, a team currently lacking consistency this season. If they continue to demonstrate their solid performance, they should be able to secure points.
Finding victory again would be a boost for Ho Chi Minh City Police Club to accelerate towards the end of the season.

Earning points in two consecutive away matches, if that happens, would be a huge boost for coach Le Huynh Duc's team as they aim to accelerate their progress in the two consecutive home matches against two bottom-of-the-table teams, SLNA and Da Nang FC.
At that point, Ho Chi Minh City Police FC could conclude their first season back with a top-of-the-table finish in the V-League 2025-2026. This would serve as a foundation for them to add star players and become a formidable challenger in the championship race in the V-League 2026-2027.
