Competition between Van Minh FC and Chuong Duong FC players

About 2,000 spectators packed Hung Phuc Stadium (Vinh City) to watch the most exciting match of Vinh League 2015.

With the cheers of a large audience, players from both teams continuously launched massive attacks from the start. FC Van Minh soon took the lead thanks to the leading scorer of the tournament, Dau Trong Tuan Anh. However, immediately after that, FC Chuong Duong was awarded a penalty after a Van Minh FC player committed a foul in the penalty area and former SHB.DN center back Nguyen Huu Hung did not miss the opportunity to bring the match back to the starting line.

The equalizer helped FC Chuong Duong players play more confidently, they continuously organized extremely dangerous attacks from both wings with the excellent wing duo Anh Thang and Van Cong. After many attacks that made FC Van Minh's defense struggle, FC Chuong Duong players finally satisfied the "general boss" who flew from Ho Chi Minh City to Vinh to cheer them on with 2 beautiful goals by Nguyen Thang Bao and Nguyen Anh Thang.

In the second half, FC Van Minh regained their fighting spirit, former SLNA youth goalkeeper Tran Huy Le was brought in to replace Nguyen The Dung who did not catch well in the first half. This adjustment of the team leading Vinh League quickly showed its effectiveness, goalkeeper Huy Le not only had a brilliant jump to block the ball after a header from a very close range from the opponent's striker, but he also had very good kicks that sparked many attacks of FC Van Minh. Meanwhile, both of FC Chuong Duong's very dangerous wingers were injured after strong collisions and had to leave the field, so the team's strong attacks were significantly less dangerous.

In the 34th minute, the defending champion's spirit spoke up, "the assassin of the amateur playground" Tran Dinh Hoan showed his goal-scoring instinct with a tricky header to shorten the score to 2-3. About 5 minutes before the end of the match, Ha Quang Dat equalized for FC Van Minh with a smart pass into the dead corner, surprising both the defense and FC Chuong Duong's goalkeeper, who could only watch the ball go into the net.

Winning only 1 point in this life-and-death match meant that FC Chuong Duong's chance of winning the championship was almost gone, Van Quyen was immediately sent onto the field. Although he was somewhat heavy due to his body having gained weight since retiring from top-level football, this striker played quite aggressively, especially his turns still made the opposing defenders twist their backs and Van Quyen's shots were still highly accurate, causing goalkeeper Huy Le to struggle to push the ball over the crossbar at least twice. Right at the last minute of the match, Van Quyen made a smart move to receive a long pass from his teammate, but in the situation of facing an almost empty goal, this striker's header sent the ball just over the crossbar, leaving his teammates and many fans in the stands regretful.

Holding the strongest opponent in this match, FC Van Minh only needs to win 4 points in the last 2 matches to successfully defend the championship. However, in round 11, FC Van Minh will have difficulty when facing FC Hung Linh, the team that just defeated FC Monkey of SLNA first team midfielder Ho Khac Ngoc with a score of 5-3 and still has hope of taking the championship if they win all 6 points in the last 2 rounds.

Results of the remaining 4 matches of round 9: Free Thanh Co - FC 57: 1 – 1; Hieu Giang – Quang Vinh: 3 – 4; Y Lan – U38: 7 – 1; Fire – An Thinh: 2 – 2.
