On April 25, stage 20 of the national cycling race for the Ho Chi Minh City Television Cup (HTV) - Ton Dong A 2025, 118km long from Vung Tau to Bien Hoa, witnessed the impressive performance of 4 foreign players: Samuel Jenner, Loic Desriac, Mikhail Fokin and Savva Novikov, successfully separating from the group and changing the individual overall rankings as well as the Green Jersey race.
Right from the start of the stage, the top four foreign players "showed their cards" with fierce attacks, creating the strongest leading group since the beginning of the season. Among them, Loic Desriac (Domesco Pharmaceutical Dong Thap ) was extremely active in competing for the top 3 Green Jersey position, while also helping his team shorten the points gap in the team table.
In the following group, Le Fruit Maxxis Dong Nai and TP HCM Vinama were forced to "carry on" to catch up, avoiding the risk of being eliminated due to the time limit. However, the wind and good cooperation in the leading group made it impossible to close the gap in time.
Although not a strong sprinter, Samuel Jenner (620 Chau Thoi Vinh Long ) unexpectedly jumped at the right time at the finish line in Bien Hoa City, winning a spectacular stage.
Savva Novikov (Binh Minh Plastics Binh Duong) finished second, while Loic Desriac finished third but had enough points to surpass Nguyen Tan Hoai, taking the 3rd place in the Green Jersey - the sprint king . At the same time, the Domesco Pharmaceutical team also shortened the gap by nearly 2 minutes with Le Fruit Maxxis Dong Nai in the team standings.
Although the situation has slightly changed, the important titles remain the same when the Yellow Jersey still belongs to Mikhail Fokin (Loc Troi Group An Giang), the Orange Jersey belongs to Nguyen Hoang Sang (Le Fruit Maxxis Dong Nai), the Green Jersey is held by Nick Kergozou (620 Vinh Long Agriculture), the White Jersey belongs to Pham Le Xuan Loc (Military Zone 7) and the Red Dot Jersey is held by Savva Novikov (Binh Minh Binh Duong Plastic).
At the award ceremony, the representative of sponsor Ton Dong A awarded a scholarship of 20 million VND to students in difficult circumstances in Bien Hoa, continuing the journey of spreading love with the Television Cup.
Tomorrow, April 26, the racers will enter stage 21 from Bien Hoa to My Tho, a 133 km race - a stage that is expected to be full of turmoil as the teams simultaneously calculate for the "final push" in the West.
