Coach Cong Manh resigns after Binh Duong loses to Hanoi

On the evening of April 19, Binh Duong Club suffered a heavy 0-3 defeat against Hanoi FC, despite playing at home in round 19 of the 2024-2025 V-League. In which, Daniel Passira and Tuan Hai scored in the 29th and 52nd minutes respectively and Odiljon Abdurakhmanov scored an own goal.

This defeat continues the disappointing streak of the team from the land of Thu, as they have not won in the last 4 matches, with 3 defeats.

In the press conference after the match, coach Nguyen Cong Manh frankly admitted that he felt ashamed and proactively asked to resign from the position of captain of Binh Duong Club.

"I think if I can't do it, I should quit. I have my own self-respect. I'm ashamed, to have such a disastrous defeat, I'm still me, I accept it and let someone else do it for the team. I can't help Binh Duong any more. I'm the leader so I take responsibility. The team will make an announcement in the next few days" - Mr. Manh shared.

Despite deciding to leave at a difficult time, Coach Cong Manh still looks back on his journey with the team with positive emotions, especially the mark when Binh Duong reached the semi-finals of the 2024-2025 National Cup.

"I have created a team that is as close as a family. Binh Duong is a big team in Vietnam, and needs to continue to develop. After many years, the team has also reached the semi-finals of the National Cup, which is a beautiful memory for me" - Mr. Manh said.

Coach Nguyen Cong Manh started leading Binh Duong from December 2024, replacing Mr. Hoang Anh Tuan. Mr. Manh had an impressive start when helping the home team win many consecutive victories and go deep in the National Cup. However, a series of poor results in recent times made him decide to take responsibility by withdrawing, ending a short and emotional journey with the Southeast team.

With the above defeat, Binh Duong is holding the 7th position with 25 points. Meanwhile, Hanoi continues to closely follow the top position of Nam Dinh with 34 points, 1 point less than the opponent.
