  • CLB Da Nang has the power to decide its survival in the V-League after a 0-0 draw against CLB Ha Tinh.
  • Coach Le Duc Tuan expressed optimism about the team's chances of staying in the league, emphasizing self-determination.
  • Da Nang will secure their V-League status with a win in their final home match against CLB Thanh Hoa.

CLB Da Nang holds its fate in its own hands regarding survival in the V-League after securing a crucial 0-0 draw against CLB Ha Tinh in their penultimate match of the season. The result leaves Da Nang level on points with PVF-CAND, intensifying the relegation battle.

Chúng tôi dự đoán đây là trận đấu vô vàn khó khăn. Hà Tĩnh đã đủ điểm trụ hạng nhưng có sự cổ vũ khán giả nên họ phải nỗ lực. Còn chúng tôi xác định đây là trận quan trọng nhất mùa giải năm nay. Mặt khác nền sân Hà Tĩnh khá cứng và thời tiết rất oi bức

— Lê Đức TuấnCoach Le Duc Tuan's assessment of the match against Ha Tinh and its importance for his team's survival.

Coach Le Duc Tuan remains confident in his team's ability to avoid relegation. "We predicted this would be an extremely difficult match. Ha Tinh had already secured their survival but played with the support of their fans, so they had to push," Tuan stated. "For us, this was the most important match of the season. The pitch at Ha Tinh was also hard, and the weather was very hot."

Tuan acknowledged the challenge, noting Ha Tinh fielded their strongest lineup. "I've been in this profession for 10 years, so I understand. We have to decide for ourselves; no one will help us. Da Nang is a team that stands alone, so we must rely on our performance on the field," he added. Despite Ha Tinh missing key players due to suspension, Da Nang struggled to implement their usual fluid play.

Tôi không bất ngờ khi Hà Tĩnh tung ra đội hình mạnh nhất. Tôi trong nghề 10 năm rồi nên tôi quá hiểu. Chúng tôi phải tự quyết định chứ không ai giúp đỡ mình đã. Đà Nẵng là đội bóng 'thân cô thế cô' nên phải cố gắng thi đấu bằng chuyên môn trên sân

— Lê Đức TuấnCoach Le Duc Tuan's comments on the team's reliance on their own performance and the challenges faced.

Da Nang's advantage lies in their current 12th-place standing. Their final match, played at home, is described as the "match of the entire season." Tuan hopes for strong fan support to fill the stands. A victory against CLB Thanh Hoa, a team that has already secured its league status, would guarantee Da Nang's survival. Even if PVF-CAND and Becamex Binh Duong also win and reach 24 points, Da Nang would still finish above them due to a superior head-to-head record among the three teams.

Lợi thế của Đà Nẵng là tạm thời xếp thứ 12. Trận cuối cùng trên sân nhà là trận đấu của cả mùa giải. Tôi hy vọng khán giả sẽ đến sân lấp đầy khán đài

— Lê Đức TuấnCoach Le Duc Tuan discussing the team's current position and the significance of the final home match.
