On the evening of June 26, two exciting semi-final matches of the 2024-2025 National Cup took place at Vinh and Hang Day stadiums.

Song Lam Nghe An Club beat B.Binh Duong 3-2 in the first semi-final thanks to the decisive goal from the 11m mark in the 90+1 minute. Meanwhile, Cong An Ha Noi Club defeated The Cong - Viettel 3-1 in the first half.

According to the previous draw results, the 2024 - 2025 National Cup final will take place on the field of the winning team in the semi-final match between Song Lam Nghe An and B.Binh Duong.

Therefore, Song Lam Nghe An Club will meet Cong An Ha Noi in the final match taking place at 6pm on June 29 at Vinh Stadium. This is a great advantage for coach Phan Nhu Thuat and his team to win the National Cup after a season of near relegation in V-League 2024 - 2025.

Since the start of the National Cup, Song Lam Nghe An has played 3 matches at home and won all of them. The Nghe team beat SHB Da Nang 1-0 in the round of 16, beat Dong Thap 2-1 in the quarter-finals and most recently beat B.Binh Duong 3-2 in the semi-finals.

Meanwhile, Hanoi Police Club continues to play a mix of home and away matches since the beginning of the National Cup.

The police team beat Hong Linh Ha Tinh 2-1 in the round of 16 at Hang Day Stadium, beat Hai Phong 3-1 in the quarter-finals at Lach Tray Stadium, and beat The Cong - Viettel 3-1 at Hang Day Stadium.

And now the final match with Song Lam Nghe An promises to be not easy at Vinh Stadium. Quang Hai himself, after the victory over The Cong - Viettel, was not subjective when evaluating Song Lam Nghe An.

"Once we reach the final, every team is the same, we will try our best to get the best result," he said.

Song Lam Nghe An has a chance to set a record

Currently, there are 3 clubs that have won the National Cup 3 times: B.Binh Duong (1994 under the name Song Be, 2015, 2018), Hanoi (2019, 2020, 2022) and Song Lam Nghe An (2002, 2010, 2017).

If they can defeat Cong An Ha Noi in the upcoming final, Song Lam Nghe An Club will take the lead in the number of National Cup championships. Conversely, if Cong An Ha Noi Club wins Song Lam Nghe An, they will win the National Cup for the first time.
