Nam Dinh's efforts

"I am very happy. This is the second time I have won the championship with Nam Dinh. The first time was difficult, but the second time was even more difficult. I feel lucky to receive support from all members of the team. That trust is the motivation for me and the whole team to work hard, strive and achieve today's achievements", the words of coach Vu Hong Viet added more emotion to Nam Dinh's sublime day, when they officially successfully defended the championship in the highest tournament in Vietnam.

Before the season, despite strengthening the team to "share the fire" on many domestic and continental fronts, Nam Dinh encountered many difficulties in the journey to the championship. There were times when coach Vu Hong Viet and his team did not play well and lost the leading position in the rankings, along with the injury of number 1 striker Nguyen Xuan Son, which made the team's efficiency not high. However, with tireless efforts and targeted investment from the team's leadership, the ship named Thanh Nam football has found its inspiration again, accelerating ahead in the fierce pursuit of clubs such as Hanoi FC, Hanoi Police, The Cong...

With 2 consecutive championship seasons, Nam Dinh officially entered the temple of legends in the history of V-League during the 25 years of formation and development. Before Nam Dinh, only Hoang Anh Gia Lai, Gach Dong Tam Long An, B. Binh Duong and Hanoi Club did this. Experts said that this is an impressive achievement of coach Vu Hong Viet and his team, because V-League is a harsh tournament, winning the championship is difficult, defending the championship is ten thousand times more difficult.

Returning to Thien Truong Stadium in the match against Ha Tinh, the stadium organizers and Nam Dinh spectators not only tried to bring the match to a safe finish, but also created a highlight with careful and emotional preparation. Football in Nam Dinh always has its own identity, not only for the team, but also from the stands and the football people here.

Decoding Nam Dinh's success

As analyzed, successfully defending the championship is very difficult in V-League. What is the reason that helped coach Vu Hong Viet and his team succeed?

In the entire achievement of winning the V-League double championship, the role of the duo Coach Vu Hong Viet and Technical Director Nguyen Trung Kien is considered key. They are both young people, but their enthusiasm and dedication to Thanh Nam football have created a good coordination in implementing the goals of Nam Dinh Club.

When the upper echelons were stable, the players played with determination on the field, especially showing solidarity on the field, helping the team overcome difficulties, especially when Nguyen Xuan Son and other key players were injured, affecting the performance of Nam Dinh Club in the fierce race in the V-League.

“Defending the championship this season is great, but I understand that next season will be even more difficult. We need to clearly define specific goals in all four arenas. The team's leadership and I will sit down to thoroughly discuss the direction for the coming time. Last season, we learned many lessons from the international arena. Those experiences helped the team improve significantly in the final stage of the V-League. The players have clearly matured and deserve to enjoy the results,” coach Vu Hong Viet added.

Compared to other teams, Nam Dinh is also considered the club with the most thoughtful preparation for the season. Before being crowned V-League 2024-2025, the team from Nam Dinh spent a long time training the players in Tuy Hoa City, Phu Yen. According to the coaching staff, it was a very successful trip, when the whole team not only had time to enjoy and explore the beauty of the peace of the land of yellow flowers and green grass, but also trained in an ideal environment. This is considered an important factor to help the team have more energy to overcome difficulties throughout the season.
