Coach Viet Thang is confident but cautious.
In round 9 of the 2024-2025 first division, Ninh Binh Club defeated Binh Phuoc team on the day Cong Phuong was out due to injury. When asked if the striker from Nghe An could play, would the ancient capital team face more difficulties, coach Viet Thang replied: "I have been working at Ninh Binh Club for half a year. There is no match where I pay attention to only one opponent player. For me, the more important thing is tactics, the system. I don't think with Cong Phuong, everything will be different. Cong Phuong attacks well but the defense may not be good. Therefore, if Cong Phuong is there, I believe I can exploit it. I have nothing to worry about."
This statement shows the confidence of coach Viet Thang, who helped Ninh Binh Club have a series of 8 consecutive wins. However, he also showed caution: "I think Ninh Binh team needs to solve each match. For me, the 4-point gap is not too big. I want to thank the players' fighting spirit. In the first half, the players exerted their strength at the right time and then fought at all costs to be able to win 3 points."

He added: "This victory is not easy. Binh Phuoc Club has many experienced players that we have to be wary of. And everything is still going on, the championship race between Binh Phuoc Club, PVF-CAND and Ninh Binh is still going on."

In addition, coach Viet Thang gave his assessment of his players: "Regarding Hoang Duc, praising his expertise is too much. I want to praise him for his professional attitude and fighting spirit. Before the match, his leg was sore and swollen but he still fought well. Initially, I only planned to use him for the entire first half or 60 minutes and then replace Hoang Duc, but in the end, the players had cramps before him. I want to thank Hoang Duc for spreading the spirit to the whole team.
Regarding Quoc Viet, he wants to be present at the SEA Games, to win a starting position, he has to strive a lot. This year's SEA Games list has many strong opponents for Quoc Viet, but I still trust him, he is a talented and improving player."
What did coach Anh Duc say about Cong Phuong's return date?
Without Cong Phuong, Binh Phuoc FC lacks many attacking options. That is the reason they cannot create dangerous opportunities towards Van Lam's goal. Coach Anh Duc shared: "Cong Phuong is practicing recovery. Specifically when he can return, I have to check with the medical department but I think he will return soon."
Cong Phuong will soon return to help Binh Phuoc Club continue to nurture hopes of winning the first division championship.
The former striker of the Vietnamese national team also added about the first division championship race: "Firstly, I would like to congratulate Ninh Binh Club. Today, both teams played with dedication and the team that took advantage of their opportunities better won. Ninh Binh Club is a strong team, one of the championship candidates with a lot of quality. However, when the final round has not come, it is still unknown what will happen."
