Making the entire First Division terrified, but Hoang Duc's team shouldn't dream of this.

To realize the goal of winning a ticket to play in the V-League, Ninh Binh Club has invested heavily in the early stages of the 2024-2025 season.

Ninh Binh Club faced many difficulties against Binh Duong.

The football team of the ancient capital Hoa Lu did not hesitate to spend money to bring in top stars such as goalkeeper Dang Van Lam and midfielder Nguyen Hoang Duc.

Next to them are famous players like Thanh Thinh, Huu Tuan, Thanh Binh or Trong Long. This is a squad of players that many V-League teams must desire.

With such a quality squad, coach Nguyen Viet Thang's team did not have to spend much effort to dominate the First Division.

They won all 11 matches, scored 20 goals and conceded only 1. They even surpassed the chasing team by 9 points.

With what has been shown, Ninh Binh has almost no rivals in the race for a ticket to V-League next season.

Even though they have not been promoted yet, there are opinions that Ninh Binh is capable of competing for the V-League championship. But perhaps these are just subjective opinions and this is very difficult to become a reality.

Admittedly, Ninh Binh is a strong team. In fact, their personnel quality is somewhat better than the lower teams in the V-League.

But to compete with the "big guys" like Hanoi Police, Hanoi FC, Nam Dinh or The Cong Viettel, they are certainly not strong enough.

The clearest proof of this is that they were outclassed by Binh Duong in the quarter-finals of the 2024-2025 National Cup, despite the fact that their opponents did not use foreign players according to the Organizing Committee's regulations.

Remember, that was also the match in which Tien Linh and his teammates played below their best and missed many good opportunities.

Another noteworthy detail is that Ninh Binh is living on the “breath” of midfielder Nguyen Hoang Duc. Meanwhile, V-League is a very harsh tournament and no team can “live well” when relying only on the strength of an individual.

Of course, no one taxes dreams. But to compete fairly with the V-League giants next season (in case they are promoted), Ninh Binh still has a lot of work to do and the first task is to improve the playing style and personnel.
