Khanh Hoa FC got an important victory against Ba Ria - Tau Vung in round 9 of V.League 2 to jump to the 3rd place. They are making slow but sure steps to return to the group of favorites for promotion next season.
Last weekend, V.League 2 saw unexpected failures of the leading teams this season such as Pho Hien, People's Public Security and Quang Nam. The streak of four consecutive wins of Pho Hien was unexpectedly stopped by the team at the bottom of the table, Binh Phuoc, with a score of 1-1. Both goals in this match were scored by Binh Phuoc players. The own goal of Binh Phuoc helped Pho Hien not to concede their first loss of the season. This draw did not affect Pho Hien's leading position on the table, but it narrowed the gap between the leading teams.

People's Public Security also got unpleasant result when playing away at Hue, who were placing in the middle on the table. Playing against weaker opponents, People's Public Security not only couldn’t take advantage of the opportunity to win three points to move to the top of the table but also lost with a score of 1-2. The loss ended the 7-match unbeaten streak of People's Public Security from the beginning of the season. Although this didn’t affect their position (2nd place), People's Public Security are under pressure for points coming from third-placed Khanh Hoa FC.
Meanwhile, Khanh Hoa FC had a close 2-1 victory against Ba Ria-Vung Tau. The victory helped Khanh Hoa FC take the place of Ba Ria-Vung Tau on the table. They are currently level on point (17) with second-placed People's Public Security but placing third due to lower goal difference. In the match with Ba Ria-Vung Tau, Khanh Hoa FC performed better play and created many good chances of scoring. However, Ba Ria-Vung Tau’s goalkeeper displayed excellently and blocked most of the shots of Khanh Hoa FC. Khanh Hoa FC had to wait until the stoppage time to find the precious goal, scored by Nguyen Thanh Loc. This was the 3rd win and the 2nd win in a row of Khanh Hoa FC. They now have two points fewer than first-placed Pho Hien.
In round 10 taking place on August 6, Khanh Hoa FC will have a home match at 19-8 Nha Trang Stadium, receiving Binh Phuoc. Hopefully, Khanh Hoa FC will continue to progress slowly but surely to stay in the leading positions.
