On the evening of June 21, Truong Tuoi Binh Phuoc Club defeated Long An Club 3-0 at home in the final round of the 2024 - 2025 First Division.

The result not only brought coach Huynh Quoc Anh and his team to the historic runner-up position but also won a place in the play-off match for the right to be promoted to V-League 2025 - 2026 on June 27 at Thong Nhat Stadium.

After the award ceremony, many fans came down to the field to celebrate with the players. They surrounded their idols to ask for autographs and take pictures with them. Among them, star striker Nguyen Cong Phuong was "surrounded" the most by fans.

One fan after another approached Cong Phuong to ask for his autograph and take pictures. People kept coming, leaving Cong Phuong "helpless" in finding a way out of the encirclement. He even raised his hand to "call for help" from the organizers in vain.

Cong Phuong scored 7 goals in the 2024 - 2025 First Division with a series of assists for his teammates.

In the decisive match against Long An , he also let Luu Tu Nhan take the 11m penalty to score the 9th goal, thereby winning the title of "Top scorer" instead of being able to score to win this title.

Explaining this, Cong Phuong said that if he, Tu Nhan or any of his teammates scored and won the "Top Scorer" award, it would be a good thing. Because for him, the team's victory was more important.

"Nhan is also a very talented and potential player. Nhan still has many opportunities to develop further. Hopefully this will be the motivation for Nhan to strive, not only for the first division but also to try to get to the V-League and later the Vietnam national team," he shared.

Cong Phuong said the team was very happy to have won and secured a play-off spot. And now it is time for the whole team to focus more on the upcoming play-off match.

"Truong Tuoi Binh Phuoc winning the play-off is a great victory not only for the club but also for Binh Phuoc province. My team and I promise to try our best to win the play-off match and be promoted to V-League."
