Coach Tran Minh Chien continues to not attend the press conference, the future of Binh Dinh Club is uncertain and unclear...

After Binh Dinh Club was officially relegated, assistant coach Tran Hung Cuong said he and his colleagues are also waiting for the board of directors to make a 'decision' about the team's future.

Binh Dinh Club's fate depends on investors

On the afternoon of June 22, Binh Dinh Club suffered a 2-4 defeat to Hanoi at home in Quy Nhon in the final round of the 2024-2025 V-League. They finished the season at the bottom of the table and had to play in the first division. After the match, Coach Tran Minh Chien continued to not attend the press conference. The person who took over this task was still assistant Tran Hung Cuong.

When asked about lessons learned after this season, Mr. Cuong shared: "The match has just ended. We need more time to review and reflect to draw lessons for the whole team as well as each individual, we cannot answer right now. In the second half of this match, the players had good spirit even though they were 4 goals behind. Throughout this season, I have noted that the players have maintained their spirit, positive training and playing attitude. With that attitude, I hope that if invested, Binh Dinh football will soon return to V-League."

Before this match took place, many rumors about Binh Dinh Club not being able to maintain its operations appeared. Mr. Cuong said: "We need to wait to know exactly. I am only a member of the coaching staff. This issue depends on the leadership, investors... We are also waiting for information from the superiors".

Finally, Mr. Cuong sent his gratitude to Binh Dinh Club fans: "On behalf of the whole team, I would like to thank all the fans. Today, those present at Quy Nhon Stadium stayed until the last moment. I really hope and believe that they will continue to support Binh Dinh football in the near future."

Hanoi Club is the runner-up of this season.

Hanoi FC coach regrets

On the other side of the front line, coach Makoto Teguramori shared about the regrets of this season: "In the second leg, Hanoi FC played well, gradually improving their position. If we had won against Nam Dinh in a direct confrontation, we would have climbed to the top of the table, but in the end we lost. That is what I regret the most. Today, we also missed many opportunities and conceded 2 goals in the second half. This is also a regret. I also discovered a problem that Hanoi FC often did not play well in the first half of the season. We will improve this in the next season".
