Round 11 V.League 2022: Hanoi FC affirms its position

This round, Hong Linh Ha Tinh team is out of the competition, while Hanoi FC and Hoang Anh Gia Lai have their 5th consecutive win, affirming their superior strength.

Hai Phong - SHB.Da Nang (1-0):After 4 poor matches at the beginning of the season, coach Phan Thanh Hung and his team had 3 consecutive wins to enter the medal competition group. Meanwhile, the host Hai Phong lost 2 consecutive matches, so people are worried about coach Chu Dinh Nghiem and his team.

However, the absence of Dang Anh Tuan and Nguyen Sa in midfield due to injury made it difficult for the Han River team to organize attacks. Foreign strikers Junior and Erick Luis played inconsistently. The goal came from a situation where left-back Cong Nhat let Chau Ngoc Quang steal the ball before coordinating with Rimario and then unleashing a shot from outside the box that defeated goalkeeper Nguyen Thanh Binh.

Saigon - Hoang Anh Gia Lai (0-1):Hoang Anh Gia Lai has just received important titles of July including: Best Team, Best Coach and Best Player right before the opening match. At this time, Hanoi FC and Hoang Anh Gia Lai are in outstanding form and have no opponents. Coach Kiatisak also welcomed the return of two pillars Cong Phuong and Tuan Linh.

Saigon FC is also full of confidence after winning the first victory of the season in the previous round. At the same time, they welcomed veteran strategist Le Huynh Duc to the coaching cabin as Technical Director.

In the second half, the away team sent two strikers Cong Phuong and Bruno onto the field at the same time to replace the two midfielders Xuan Truong and Minh Vuong. Hoang Anh Gia Lai pressed higher to minimize the gaps as well as to stretch and break the connection between the links on the Saigon FC side. With a bit of luck when Cong Phuong's shot hit the home defender and changed direction, the away team had their 5th consecutive victory, rising to 2nd place.

Viettel- Binh Duong (0-1):The team from the land of Thu "changed generals and changed fortunes" right in the first match when coach Lu Dinh Tuan and assistant Phan Ba ​​Hung took the hot seat. Without the service of striker Tien Linh, instead, young midfielder Bui Vi Hao was trusted along with striker Welington who had just joined Binh Duong.

In the 53rd minute, from a situation where the ball seemed to have gone out of bounds, Duy Khanh's efforts and Thanh Thao's header helped rookie Welington head the ball close to the goal, opening the score 1-0 for the home team at Go Dau Stadium. With a gap of 10 points, Viettel's dream of successfully defending the championship title has gradually faded away.

Topenland Binh Dinh - Hanoi FC (0-1):Home team Topenland Binh Dinh hosted Hanoi FC in a match with Vietnam National Team head coach Park Hang-seo and about 15,000 spectators. The home team kept Rafaelson and Ha Duc Chinh in a defensive, counter-attacking style to try to get 1 point.

But with the form of winning 4 consecutive matches, being the number 1 candidate for the championship, Van Quyet and his teammates did not give the home team a chance to score points. Tuan Hai had a neat turn and scored a goal while surrounded by the home team players. Hanoi FC is asserting its dominance of the V.League.
