Viktor Le turned Ha Tinh Stadium into his own stage. Two classy assists from the young midfielder helped the home team retain a valuable point against strong opponent The Cong Viettel, ending an emotional 2-2 draw in round 18 of V.League 2024/25.

The Cong Viettel had a dream start with an early opening goal in the 11th minute, when Huu Thang headed in a cross from Khuat Van Khang. The away team played exceptionally well and seemed to have a victory to continue the championship race.

However, Viktor Le refused that scenario. He almost scored at the end of the first half with a dangerous header, and then in the 56th minute, the Vietnamese-American player himself sent an accurate cross for Mbo to equalize 1-1.

The Cong Viettel once again took the lead thanks to Khuat Van Khang's dangerous shot, but Viktor Le continued to speak up. In the 80th minute, his razor-sharp pass helped Tien Dat tie the score at 2-2 for the home team.

With a brilliant performance, Viktor Le saved 1 point for Ha Tinh, and left a strong impression in the eyes of experts. After an impressive debut in the U23 Vietnam shirt at the China friendly tournament in March, Viktor brought his performance from the national team to the domestic tournament and contributed to the achievements of Ha Tinh Club.

No overseas Vietnamese player has had 2 assists in V.League this season. If he maintains his form, the day Viktor plays for the Vietnam national team may not be far away.

The above result caused The Cong Viettel to miss the opportunity to surpass Hanoi FC in 2nd place on the rankings when they had the same 30 points but had a lower goal difference and had played 1 more match. Meanwhile, Ha Tinh drew their 13th match of the season, ranking 6th.
