Foreign players shine as Hai Phong come from behind to beat Ha Tinh

(Football result) - Tagueu netted both goals, leading Hai Phong to a comeback victory over Ha Tinh on their home ground.

The match between Hai Phong and Ha Tinh was exciting from the opening minutes as both teams were ready to attack and exchanged many chances. However, the quality of these attacks was not very high.

Surprisingly, Ha Tinh took the lead. In the 28th minute from a corner kick, Helerson of Ha Tinh jumped higher than all others and powerfully headed the ball into Hai Phong’s net. This unexpected goal forced the home team Hai Phong to push forward in search of an equalizer.

Hai Phong’s attacking efforts were soon rewarded. Just 10 minutes later, the home side executed a well-organized play, with Tagueu finishing to level the score at 1-1. At the 45th minute, Tagueu scored again against Ha Tinh. Initially, the goal was disallowed for offside, but after VAR review, it was confirmed as valid.

In the second half, both Ha Tinh and Hai Phong had several chances to score. Especially Hai Phong missed opportunities by Trieu Viet Hung and Tagueu. No more goals were scored, and Hai Phong won the match 2-1, temporarily moving up to 4th place on the standings.

Important notes before the Hai Phong vs Ha Tinh match

The two teams, ranked consecutively on the table—Hai Phong (11 points, 5th) and Hong Linh Ha Tinh (9 points, 6th)—will face off at Lach Tray Stadium. A 2-2 draw with Ninh Binh and a strong 3-0 win over HAGL have demonstrated the formidable form of the coastal team, especially with the advantage of playing at home.

Looking at the four matches at Lach Tray Stadium since the start of the season, Hai Phong has earned 10 points (3 wins, 1 draw), a statistic worth noting for Coach Cong Manh and Ha Tinh’s coaching staff. Conversely, Ha Tinh has lost once, won once, and drawn twice in four away games. Thus, with similar squad strength but considering form and home advantage, Hai Phong deserves a higher rating.
