HANOI (16 July 2015) – Debutants Sanna Khanh Hoa gave defending champions Becamex Binh Duong plenty to think about this week when they beat the latter 2-1 to allow Thanh Hoa to take over the top spot in the V.League 1.
With Thanh Hoa having beaten Can Tho 2-0, the loss for Binh Duong which is their fourth so far this season, meant that they can ill afford to slip up if they are determined to defend the crown they won last year.
Elsewhere, Quang Nam beat Hoang Anh Gia Lai 4-0 as Dong Nai drew 1-1 with Song Lam Nghe An.
Hanoi T&T blasted Dong Thap 7-0, Hai Phong were held to a 1-1 draw by Dong Tam Long An while Quang Ninh Coal edged former champions SHB Da Nang 1-0.
