SHB Da Nang continued their poor form with a 0-1 defeat at home against Ho Chi Minh City Police FC in the 10th round of the 2025/26 V-League.
Before the match, the home team carried high expectations after drawing 1-1 with SLNA in round 9, where central defender Kim Dong Su scored a last-minute equalizer. However, their disjointed and uninspired style remained unchanged. SHB Da Nang held more possession (55%) and took 7 shots compared to the opponent’s 5, but most attempts lacked accuracy. Despite creating numerous dangerous attacks (44 compared to the visitors’ 45), coach Le Duc Tuan’s squad struggled to find the net.
Meanwhile, Ho Chi Minh City Police entered the match determined to bounce back after a 1-2 loss to Hai Phong. Under the guidance of coach Le Huynh Duc, who has a long history with Da Nang football, the visitors played a disciplined, deep defensive game, waiting for counterattack opportunities. Their organized approach helped them withstand pressure and launch dangerous counters thanks to the forwards’ speed.
The only goal of the match was scored in injury time by Bui Van Binh
The tension peaked in the final minutes. Just when everyone expected a draw, striker Bui Van Binh unexpectedly shone at the 89th minute with a precise close-range finish, securing a valuable 1-0 victory for Ho Chi Minh City Police FC.
This solitary goal concluded a dramatic match featuring 5 yellow cards and a red card for the home team player at the 89th minute, causing their complete collapse during added time.
The 1-0 win lifted Ho Chi Minh City Police FC to 5th place with 17 points after 10 rounds, keeping them in the top group alongside Ninh Binh and CAHN. Meanwhile, SHB Da Nang remained stuck near the bottom with only 1 win, 4 draws, and 5 losses after 10 matches, ranking 12th and just above the last two teams Hoang Anh Gia Lai and Song Lam Nghe An on goal difference.
