At Pleiku Stadium, the top team Thanh Hoa faced many difficulties against their opponent Hoang Anh Gia Lai. Felix's early goal forced Thanh Hoa - a team specializing in counter-attacks, to attack against their forte. On the other hand, Hoang Anh Gia Lai - with many fast players, had the advantage to deploy their familiar style of play.

The home team also created more opportunities with shots from Duc Duong and Timothy at the end of the first half.

In the beginning of the second half, Thanh Hoa unexpectedly equalized thanks to Sunday. The game became much more open after this situation. But neither team could score another goal. Thanh Hoa had to leave the field with 1 point. The streak of 7 consecutive wins was stopped at Pleiku Stadium.

Thanh Hoa's 1-1 draw is a great motivation for Binh Duong to be more determined in the confrontation with SHB Da Nang at Chi Lang Stadium.

Coach Le Huynh Duc's team started the game better when Valentic scored the opening goal from the 11m mark in the 20th minute. They also created a few more chances but could not convert them into goals. The Da Nang team will have to regret a lot for not being able to increase the gap because in the second half, Binh Duong rose strongly.

Before this match, the away team had won 4/5. Those were all devastating victories against a series of opponents. They were only held to a draw once in Pleiku. That is the reason why fans still put their faith in Binh Duong even though they are behind on away field.

And that belief was rewarded. In the 50th minute, Abass' close-range shot opened the way for Binh Duong's comeback. In the 59th and 90th minutes, Anh Duc and Tang Tuan scored consecutively to help Binh Duong take the lead.

Huynh Duc's team accepted a 1-3 defeat at home and dropped to 10th place in the rankings. Meanwhile, Binh Duong proudly took second place. Mr. Le Thuy Hai and his students are only 6 points behind second-placed Thanh Hoa, in the context that their opponent's winning streak has just ended.

The drama has just begun.
