On the evening of November 8, Truong Tuoi Dong Nai Club hosted Quy Nhon United at Binh Phuoc Stadium in round 7 of the 2025 - 2026 First Division.
Being 1 point behind the top team Khanh Hoa (15 points after 6 matches), Truong Tuoi Dong Nai Club must beat Quy Nhon United to keep the hope of surpassing their opponent.
However, the first 45 minutes were not easy for the home team, despite coach Nguyen Viet Thang fielding almost his strongest starting lineup.
Because except for Cong Phuong who continues to be absent due to injury, the remaining good attacking players of Truong Tuoi Dong Nai Club such as Minh Vuong, Xuan Truong, Luu Tu Nhan, Alex Sandro are all present.
After the first half ended without any truly dangerous situations for Truong Tuoi Dong Nai Club, coach Viet Thang replaced striker Alex Sandro with Ho Thanh Minh at the beginning of the second half.
Six minutes later, coach Viet Thang replaced two central midfielders Sam Ngoc Duc and Luong Xuan Truong with Uong Ngoc Tien and Quoc Loc when he saw his team still playing deadlocked.

This helps the play of Truong Tuoi Dong Nai Club become better and creates dangerous opportunities.
As a result, in the 61st minute, the home team opened the scoring. Ngoc Tin's judgment of the high ball's landing point was not good, allowing Thanh Minh to get past him and then lift the ball over goalkeeper Duong Van Loi's head to score.
This is the third goal after two consecutive matches as a substitute for Thanh Minh - the player nicknamed "wild elephant". In the previous match, Thanh Minh scored a double, helping Truong Tuoi Dong Nai Club beat the home team Thanh Nien TP.HCM 4-2 at Thong Nhat Stadium.
The match heated up in the 76th minute, when Quoc Loc was lying on the ground in pain after a foul from behind by a Quy Nhon United player in the penalty area.
Referee Phan Van Tuan allowed the match to continue, causing the home team's players and coaching staff to react violently. As a result, captain Huu Tuan and coach Viet Thang both received yellow cards. In the 90th minute, assistant Phuoc Tu received a yellow card for reacting to another situation.
No more goals were scored, the match ended with a 1-0 victory for Truong Tuoi Dong Nai Club. This result helped the Southeast team temporarily rise to the top of the table with 17 points.
If they beat Dong Thap Club in the late match of round 7 at home tomorrow (November 9), Khanh Hoa Club will regain the top spot.
