Ninh Binh FC produced a dominant display to sweep aside Hong Linh Ha Tinh 3–0 in the Vietnam National Champion League, climbing into the upper half of the table with an emphatic victory at home. The result keeps the hosts firmly in the race for a continental spot while Ha Tinh remain stuck in mid‑table.
Match Overview
From the opening whistle, Ninh Binh seized control of the midfield and pressed high up the pitch. Their early pressure was rewarded in the 12th minute when striker Nguyen Van Hieu latched onto a through ball from Tran Minh Long and slotted past the goalkeeper with a composed finish.
The home side doubled the lead just before the half‑hour mark. A flowing move down the right flank ended with a pinpoint cross from Pham Duc Huy that was met by the head of Le Van Thang, who powered his effort into the top corner.
Second Half: Control and a Third Goal
Hong Linh Ha Tinh attempted to respond after the break, but their attacks were consistently thwarted by an organised Ninh Binh backline marshalled by captain Hoang Van Binh. The visitors’ best chance came from a free‑kick that sailed just wide of the post.
Ninh Binh put the result beyond doubt in the 68th minute. Substitute Nguyen Quoc Anh burst into the box and was brought down, earning a penalty that was coolly converted by Le Van Thang for his second goal of the evening.
