Foreign players Janclesio and Diallo scored to help Ha Tinh defeat championship candidate Binh Dinh 2-1 at home in round 11 of V-League 2023.
Ha Tinh is on the rise with two wins and one draw in the last three rounds, ranking in the top 6. Hosting Binh Dinh, who have a strong squad but are under pressure due to draws and losses in the last two rounds, the home team aims to get points, even win to soon reach the goal of entering the top 8 to stay in the league.
Ha Tinh played stealthily, soon giving the away team a bitter taste. In the 5th minute, from an attack on the right wing, Paulo Pinto crossed the ball from outside the penalty area, passed 4 Binh Dinh defenders and headed straight for the far post. Captain Janclesio escaped and cushioned the ball with his left foot from about 5 meters away, hitting Van Lam's net, opening the score.

Binh Dinh attacked weakly with only one pass to striker Rafaelson, but this foreign player missed because his shot was either inaccurate or too soft, and was blocked by goalkeeper Quang Tuan. Rafaelson's supporting satellites, Ha Duc Chinh and Nghiem Xuan Tu, were both lost in the fierce pursuit of the home team's defenders.
In the second half, Binh Dinh quickly pushed up their formation, looking for an equalizer. In the 46th minute, Rafelson fired a long-range shot that went wide of Ha Tinh's right post. The turning point of the match came in the 71st minute, when Ha Tinh's Van Long passed the ball from midfield for Diallo to break the offside trap. However, this foreign player was pulled down by Binh Dinh's center-back Almeida using a trick. Referee Vu Nguyen Vu immediately showed Almeida a second yellow card, sending him off.
Ha Tinh immediately attacked thanks to their advantage of having more players, and they were soon rewarded. In the 74th minute, defender Bui Van Duc - a new player on the Vietnamese team, escaped down the right wing and passed the ball inside. From about 7 meters, Diallo shot a powerful cross-angle shot to increase the score to 2-0. Van Lam stretched out as far as he could but still could not block it.

On the 11m mark, Rafaelson easily defeated Quang Tuan, shortening the score to 1-2. After this situation, the main referee Vu Nguyen Vu blew the whistle to end the match. In contrast to Binh Dinh's sad feelings, the students of coach Nguyen Thanh Cong hugged each other to celebrate, waving to thousands of fans.
