Duc Chien was tasked with taking the penalty after Viettel 's central defender Bui Tien Dung fouled Gustavo in the 37th minute. From the penalty spot, the Binh Binh Club midfielder made no mistake, opening the scoring for the home team.

After scoring against his former team, Duc Chien celebrated wildly – ​​a rare sight in football. Many believe the Ninh Binh player wanted to "show off" to The Cong Viettel following the transfer controversy between the two sides at the beginning of the season.

"I am very happy and delighted to have scored a goal for my team. For me, celebrating today is the greatest respect I can show to both teams."

"The past cannot be changed. We can't predict the future either. But for now, I am a player for Ninh Binh. I enjoy that. I score goals and I'm happy about it," Duc Chien said.

Regarding Ninh Binh only getting one point despite leading and playing with a man advantage from the first half, Duc Chien explained: "We were overwhelmed by the spirit of the The Cong Viettel players. When Ninh Binh scored early and had a man advantage, we made mistakes. The team retreated deep and ceded possession to the opponent. The Cong Viettel is still a very strong team."

For me, football has wins and losses. We can't predict anything. Ninh Binh entered the match as a newcomer, not a top-ranked team. So, sharing points against a strong team like The Cong Viettel isn't too bad," Duc Chien concluded.
