The curtain falls!
(Baonghean) - After more than 20 rounds, with the fierce competition between the top and bottom teams, many thought the V.League 2015 would be exciting until the very last minute. However, the final matches were arranged according to a very dramatic script! SLNA "fell" to HAGL, XSKT. Can Tho and FLC Thanh Hoa surrendered to QNK. Quang Nam, Hanoi T&T lost to HAGL... With this outcome, after round 24, B. Binh Duong officially won the championship, while the relegation spot seems to have been "arranged" for Dong Nai.

From the beginning of the 2015 season until now, besides wealthy teams like Binh Duong and Hanoi T&T, who have always shown a desire to win the championship, mid-table teams like SLNA, Quang Ninh, Hai Phong, Thanh Hoa, Khanh Hoa... have repeatedly delighted fans with resounding victories and climbed to the top of the standings. At times, fans of these teams thought their "favorite" teams had the ambition to achieve a high ranking this season, but ultimately, they fell short in several crucial matches that determined their positions.
Like Thanh Hoa fans, who were "mistaken" to see their hometown team soar to the top of the league table for a long time, only to have the Thanh Hoa players suffer some embarrassing defeats that "handed" the championship to Binh Duong. Annoyed by their team's disrespectful attitude towards the fans, some fans even switched to supporting the visiting team! But it seems that the players and leaders of some teams still don't care about the fans' attitude, only focusing on off-field relationships. As a result, even the most loyal fans are starting to get fed up with this behavior. For example, the SLNA Supporters' Club now says they'll let the Nghe An team do whatever they want in the remaining two rounds; they've decided not to attend the stadium to cheer them on or participate in the planned fan meeting at the end of the season!
Normally, the V.League season would reach a climax towards the end, with dramatic races for the championship and battles to avoid relegation. However, this year it seems to have ended earlier than usual, in an unexpected and unusual way! In the remaining two rounds of the V.League, it's certain that very few spectators will attend the matches, as the results are essentially already decided.
