Ninh Binh maintains its unbeaten streak of 35 matches, leading the V-League.
The V-League 2025-26 newcomer leads with 27 points after 11 matches and has set a 35-match unbeaten streak, surpassing the Asian record of 29 matches. After the break, Ninh Binh will face Hanoi Police to defend their record.
As soon as the scoreline in the match against Ho Chi Minh City Police was finalized at 4-3, Ninh Binh not only completed a comeback from being 1-3 down, but also reached a historic milestone: 35 consecutive unbeaten matches across all competitions. With 27 points after 11 matches (8 wins, 3 draws), the V-League 2025-26 newcomer currently leads the table.
This is currently the longest unbeaten streak in Asia.
Ninh Binh's 35-match unbeaten streak spanned two seasons and is recognized as surpassing the previous record of 29 unbeaten matches in Asia, making them the team with the longest unbeaten run in the continent at the moment. Domestically, this is an unprecedented milestone.
From the First Division 2024-25 to the V-League 2025-26
The foundation for their current success began in the 2024-25 National First Division. At that time, Ninh Binh went undefeated in 24 matches and won the championship with outstanding performance. Entering the V-League 2025-26, the team continued to maintain a stable points tally to take the top spot before the mid-season break.
The professional significance of a 35-match streak.
In a highly competitive environment, a long unbeaten streak reflects two core competencies: minimizing risk at crucial moments and maintaining momentum under pressure. The 4-3 comeback victory clearly illustrates this ability to react to results and manage the game's dynamics. While the source doesn't provide additional data on formations, pressing, or goal distribution over time, the current run of results suggests Ninh Binh has found a sufficiently robust operational structure to accumulate points across various game scenarios.
Next test: Hanoi Police
After the break, Ninh Binh will face Hanoi Police. If they continue to earn points, this record will be extended for three consecutive years. However, maintaining their unbeaten streak and top position is not an easy task: each subsequent round is a test of their fighting spirit, organization, and endurance at the intensity of the V-League.
