The 4-2 victory over Song Lam Nghe An helps Hanoi Police continue to maintain the top spot with 51 points. Coach Mano Polking's team is creating a 9-point gap with The Cong Viettel - the second-placed team just drawn in this round. In the context that there are only 6 rounds left in the season, the advantage belongs to the police team.
The high form of striker Nguyen Dinh Bac is an important highlight. The hat-trick against Song Lam Nghe An helped this striker continue to advance in the top scorer race, and at the same time contribute greatly to the impressive achievements of the Capital team.
In the middle group, the situation did not change much as the teams maintained a fairly close point gap. Notably, Ho Chi Minh City Police regained the joy of victory after a series of difficult matches, thereby consolidating their safe position.
Meanwhile, pressure is weighing heavily on Hoang Anh Gia Lai. The goalless draw against Hai Phong caused the Mountain Town team to drop to 12th place, only 6 points ahead of the bottom group. Although the gap is not too dangerous, the unstable form makes the risk of being dragged into the relegation race more obvious.
At the bottom of the table, PVF-CAND and Da Nang are still in a chasing position. The fact that these teams have continuously improved their scores in recent rounds makes the relegation battle unpredictable.
With the current developments, V.League 2025-2026 is entering a decisive stage. The championship race is gradually finalized, but the relegation battle promises to be more volatile in the final rounds.
