V-League: Ninh Binh dramatically wins over Song Lam Nghe An

Ninh Binh struggled to overcome Song Lam Nghe An in round 10 of V-League 2025-2026 thanks to a late goal by Pham Gia Hung.

On the evening of November 5, the match between Ninh Binh and Song Lam Nghe An (SLNA) took place in round 10 of V-League 2025-2026.

With home ground advantage and high morale after a series of impressive achievements since the beginning of the season, Ninh Binh proactively pushed up their attacking formation right after the opening whistle with the goal of preemptively attacking their opponents.

Ninh Binh had a difficult match against SLNA.

In the 9th minute, Dung Quang Nho dribbled the ball on the right wing and then made a curling shot that missed the SLNA goal by a hair's breadth.

After about 20 minutes of play, the home team held the ball up to 80%. However, Hoang Duc and his teammates had many difficulties in approaching SLNA's goal.

In the opposite direction, SLNA chose to play defensive counter-attack and almost found the opening goal. In the 23rd minute, Quang Vinh escaped to receive a pass from his teammate but unfortunately his difficult control was unsuccessful and was caught by goalkeeper Dang Van Lam.

2 minutes later, SLNA launched another attack in the middle and the ball reached Olaha. After a moment of control, the foreign player of the Nghe An team decided to shoot from a distance of about 20m, sending the ball over the crossbar of Ninh Binh's goal.

After a few minutes of erratic play, Ninh Binh gradually regained the initiative and began to have sharp attacks.

In the 38th minute, receiving a pass from Geovane, Hoang Duc fired a powerful shot that hit a SLNA player's foot and went out of bounds. Not long after, it was center back Hai Duc's turn to test goalkeeper Van Binh with a cannon shot but was also unsuccessful.

When the first half entered extra time, SLNA suddenly had a chance and Quang Vinh immediately shot from a distance, causing goalkeeper Dang Van Lam to struggle to block.

SLNA lost regretfully to Ninh Binh.

After the break, SLNA unexpectedly pushed their squad up to control the ball and had a good position against Ninh Binh. However, the pressure that the Nghe team created for their opponent was not too great.

In contrast, the Ancient Capital team still played relatively cautiously. Although they created a few scoring opportunities, their strikers showed a lack of sharpness.

In the 64th minute, Geovane rushed up to receive a cross from his teammate on the right wing and headed the ball, but it was too light and went straight to SLNA goalkeeper Van Binh. In the 84th minute, Gustavo crossed the ball inside for Quoc Viet to head, but goalkeeper Van Binh rushed out and missed a bit but still managed to use his foot to save his team.

As the final minutes approached, Ninh Binh attacked more strongly and they finally got what they needed, the opening goal. In the 86th minute, Le Phat dribbled on the left wing before crossing for Pham Gia Hung to finish into the SLNA net, putting the home team ahead.

In the remaining time, SLNA tried to attack to find an equalizer but failed and accepted a 0-1 defeat against Ninh Binh.
