Hoang Duc did not score, Ninh Binh still won the second consecutive match

On the evening of November 3, Phu Dong Ninh Binh welcomed Long An in the second round of the First Division. This was the debut match of Hoang Duc and his teammates at home this season.

Facing an opponent that was rated lower in every aspect, coach Nguyen Viet Thang's star team won 2-0 overall.

Ninh Binh 's first goal came in the 31st minute. Midfielder Hoang Duc approached Long An's goal. In an attempt to block the 2023 Golden Ball, the visiting team's defender let the ball touch his hand, giving Ninh Binh a penalty. From the penalty spot, Mach Ngoc Ha did not finish coldly, defeating goalkeeper Bao Duy.

Phu Dong Ninh Binh led after the first half.

Excited after the early goal, Ninh Binh rushed forward to find a goal to double the gap. However, the representative from the West defended firmly, avoiding an early collapse.

Goalkeeper Dang Van Lam had a rather leisurely first half, as Long An were almost unable to organize an attack. It was not until the last minute of injury time that Van Lam made his first save from Hoang Anh's free kick.

In the second half, Ninh Binh could not maintain the pressure as they did in the previous 45 minutes. Hoang Duc and his teammates even almost conceded a goal in the final minutes of the match.

In the 83rd minute, from a face-to-face with a Long An striker, Van Lam made an excellent save to keep Ninh Binh's net intact. 3 minutes later, Nhu Y's header was difficult for Van Lam to block, but the ball hit the post.

After a series of missed opportunities, Long An conceded a second goal in extra time. Striker Duc Cuong fired a shot from the edge of the penalty area, sealing a 2-0 victory for Phu Dong Ninh Binh.

The second consecutive victory helped Nguyen Viet Thang and his team lead the rankings, scoring 3 goals and having 6 points. Hoang Duc had his first "goalless" match since his debut in the First Division.
