Merry Christmas for Da Nang football, breathtaking goals

The courage of coach Truong Viet Hoang and his students

Da Nang FC had a very disadvantageous start when they lost very early in the 3rd minute. After a quick escape, striker Bui Van Binh of the home team Ba Ria-Vung Tau shot past goalkeeper Phan Van Bieu. The early loss, although putting a lot of pressure on the team leading the rankings, did not shake their spirit and had a negative impact on their playing style.

On the contrary, Da Nang team still showed that they are a team with nerves of steel when Luong Duy Cuong, Phan Van Long, Dang Anh Tuan, Pham Van Huu, Nguyen Phi Hoang, Ha Minh Tuan all showed no impatience in hunting for goals. They calmly waited for the opportunity, tried not to create any loopholes, and always cherished each counterattack. If lucky, in the first half, Phi Hoang had a chance to equalize when he shot the ball in an open position but it slipped slightly and hit the foot of a Ba Ria-Vung Tau defender.

As time drew to a close, everyone thought it would be difficult for Da Nang to find an equalizer as the home team pulled their formation low to cover all the gaps and focused on defense. But the team and especially captain Truong Viet Hoang still had faith that the players in his hands would know how to show their mettle. To create a stronger change, coach Hoang "bot" sent all his firepower into the field, from former national team players Pham Dinh Duy, Tran Vuong, U.23 Asian champion Nguyen Minh Quang to former U.23 national team player Giang Tran Quach Tan.

And it was this substitution that brought about brilliant results when the new players used their strength and strong mentality to attack the somewhat tired defense. Tran Vuong equalized 1-1 in the 76th minute after a good arrangement from the right wing. In the 90+2 minute, when many positions of the home team were exhausted and just waiting for the final whistle, Nguyen Minh Quang scored. With the speed of a divine horse, having torn apart Long An's defense in the previous round, Quang punished the opponent's carelessness, rushing and turning to shoot so dangerously that goalkeeper Nguyen Son Hai could not block. A goal that showed the class of the 2023 U.23 Southeast Asian champion.

Before the end of the 90+4 minute of extra time, the striker who was once called up to the national team by coach Park Hang-seo, Pham Dinh Duy, was as quick as a squirrel, easily overcame the home team's defenders, passing the ball like a set piece to Giang Tran Quach Tan to set the score at 3-1. A resounding comeback victory, demonstrating the tactical sophistication and class of the Han River team. With such a deep squad, coach Truong Viet Hoang and his team are more than worthy of reigning at the top. In particular, the resounding victory over the top-ranked opponent is also a meaningful Christmas gift that the Da Nang team gives to their fans.

"Lungless man" shoots, PVF-CAND enters top 3

Since his first goal from the penalty spot against Phu Tho, striker Nguyen Thanh Nhan, nicknamed "The Lungless Man", has found his own goal when he and his teammates defeated the ancient capital Hue team 2-1 at home.

Thanh Nhan scored in the 9th minute after a strong acceleration, passing Hue goalkeeper Tien Tao, and shooting a curling shot from a narrow angle into an empty net. Not only did Thanh Nhan play outstandingly, she also, along with two other strikers, Le Van Do and Le Minh Binh, repeatedly threatened Hue's goal. In the 32nd minute, Van Do himself used his quick escape speed on the left to pass the ball to Minh Binh to score the second goal.

After this goal, PVF-CAND closed their formation and Hue had a chance to shorten the gap in the last minute of the first half. Hoang Quang Dung scored after a free kick from his teammate. Although the goal helped Ho Thanh Minh and his teammates improve, it was not enough to find another equalizer against the home team with a well-organized defense. With this victory, PVF-CAND has 13 points equal to Hue and is only 4 points behind Da Nang, opening up hope of competing for promotion.

Le Minh Binh's goal against Hue

Meanwhile, Dong Nai has risen to 5th place with 11 points, just 1 point behind Ba Ria-Vung Tau, thanks to a 3-0 victory over bottom team Phu Tho. Striker Cao Hoang Tu scored a brace. The remaining goal was scored by Nguyen Van Son. Dong Thap also beat Truong Tui Binh Phuoc 1-0, so although still ranked 10/11, they have 7 points, closely following Long An (8 points). The only goal was scored from a penalty kick in the 81st minute, after substitute Tran Huu Nghia was fouled by experienced defender Vo Nhat Tan in the penalty area. Striker Nguyen Cong Thanh did not miss the opportunity to shoot past goalkeeper Doan Huy Hoang. With 9 points, the ambitious team Truong Tui Binh Phuoc seems to have little hope of competing with the top group. Perhaps coach Nguyen Anh Duc is watching this tournament to train himself to better consolidate for next season.
