Although playing at home ground Pleiku in round 17 of V-League 2024-2025, the quality of the squad of Hoang Anh Gia Lai Club (HAGL) is still considered lower than Binh Duong due to the "storm" of injuries.
However, after a convincing victory in the quarter-finals of the National Cup, Binh Duong was somewhat subjective when traveling to Pleiku Stadium to face HAGL.
Coach Nguyen Cong Manh left key players Nguyen Tien Linh and Vo Hoang Minh Khoa on the bench, causing the away team's ability to control the ball and attack to decline.
Without Vi Hao, Binh Duong's attack is less effective.
The turning point of the match appeared early, completely changing the situation. After a mistake by goalkeeper Tran Minh Toan, HAGL opened the score with a goal by Tran Bao Toan in the 4th minute.
The early loss caused the morale of Binh Duong players to plummet. Meanwhile, coach Le Quang Trai's team showed excitement and quickly scored another goal.
Following the defensive counter-attack strategy, HAGL confidently deployed wing attacks and scored two goals by Brandao and Vo Dinh Lam in the 6th and 26th minutes respectively.

Brandao and Marciel took turns scoring against Binh Duong.
Binh Duong realized the instability in the operation of the game and quickly sent Minh Khoa and Tien Linh onto the field right in the first half. However, this pair of national players could not help the home team improve.
With ineffective attacks, Binh Duong conceded another goal at the end of the match, after Merciel's quick counter-attack and perfect finish in the 90+1 minute. The impressive victory over a strong opponent helped HAGL gain 21 points and temporarily rise to 8th place in the rankings after 17 matches played.
Meanwhile, Binh Duong lost the opportunity to narrow the gap in points with the leading group and is at risk of falling out of the top 5 after the 17th round ends.
