Comments on the match between CA TP.HCM and Ha Tinh, 7:15 p.m. on October 19: When the "red battleship" challenges its nemesis

VHO - Commentary on the match between CA TP.HCM vs Ha Tinh, round 7 of V.League, the annoying defensive play will probably help the away team gain points in their trip to the city named after Uncle Ho.

CA TP.HCM vs Ha Tinh performance

Since being transferred to the police force before the V.League 2025/26, Ho Chi Minh City Police have made quite strong changes, especially in personnel structure.

The positive impression was there, but few people expected that the football team of the city named after Uncle Ho would have such a flying start.

After 6 rounds, the home team Thong Nhat Stadium has lost only 1, drawn 1 and won 4. With a total of 13 points in hand, the team under the direction of coach Le Huynh Duc is proudly ranked 3rd, only 1 point behind the top position held by Ninh Binh .

Notably, in the two recent appearances, despite having to travel to away lands, CA TP.HCM still continuously won.

The 3-1 victories against Becamex TP.HCM and SLNA clearly demonstrated the ability of the police team to compete for a high position this season.

Returning to their home ground this weekend, CA TP.HCM will have another chance to improve their performance. In 3 times hosting guests since the beginning of the season, the home team has never tasted defeat, earning 2 wins and 1 draw.

Strong guests like defending champion Nam Dinh or Hanoi FC could not leave with a smile of victory.

However, Ha Tinh is considered the nemesis of the team from the city named after Uncle Ho. In the last 7 meetings between the two sides, CA TP.HCM has never won all 3 points. In fact, the home team has lost 5 and only drawn 2.

However, times have changed. The Thong Nhat Stadium team has changed dramatically, no longer the image of a Red Battleship that only competes in the middle or bottom half of the rankings.

At this time, coach Le Huynh Duc and his team are in good spirit and form, ready for even stronger breakthroughs.

But basically, Ha Tinh still shows a rough and tough face, even though captain Nguyen Thanh Cong is no longer on the coaching bench.

New coach Nguyen Cong Manh has done a good job continuing the legacy left by his compatriot predecessor.

In the last 6 appearances, the away team has only lost 1, drawn 2 and won 3. The solid support in the defense has been maintained, helping the Hong mountain team to be in the top 6 clubs with the best defense (only conceded 7 goals).

Having to play away against a home team full of spirit, Trong Hoang and his teammates will have even more reason to choose their favorite defensive counter-attacking style of play.
