Phu Dong Ninh Binh Club has won the 2024-2025 First Division Championship 3 rounds early after defeating Ho Chi Minh City Youth 3-0 at home in round 19 on May 17.

However, coach Nguyen Viet Thang's team still entered the match with host Dong Nai in round 20 on the afternoon of May 26 with great concentration.

Phu Dong Ninh Binh Club will not have captain Hoang Duc in this match, because he has already traveled to Malaysia to prepare for the friendly match between the ASEAN All-stars team and Manchester United Club (England) on May 28.

But with the remaining stars, Phu Dong Ninh Binh still completely outperformed the host Dong Nai. Although the champion of the tournament had a difficult match and only won by a narrow 1-0. The only goal was scored by Duc Cuong in the 34th minute.

With this victory, Phu Dong Ninh Binh Club continued to extend its unbeaten streak to 18 matches (17 wins, one draw).

More notably, this was also the 16th clean sheet for goalkeeper Dang Van Lam and Phu Dong Ninh Binh Club. In the entire tournament, this team has only conceded 2 goals in 18 matches, scoring 35 goals. A truly unparalleled achievement.

In the immediate future, Phu Dong Ninh Binh Club still has 2 more matches with Truong Tuoi Binh Phuoc (June 14) and Dong Thap (June 21) to set a record - the first professional football team in Vietnam to be undefeated the entire season.
