CAHN enjoyed a complete day of joy as they beat Becamex TP HCM and then hoisted the V-League title at the Hàng Đẫy home stadium.
In the electrifying atmosphere at Hàng Đẫy Stadium, Coach Mano Polking and his squad secured a 2-1 victory over Becamex TP.HCM thanks to goals from Alan Grafite and Leo Artur. This result brought CAHN's total points to 64, equaling the record for most points in a V.League season set by Hà Nội FC in 2018.
With one match still remaining, the police-backed team still has the chance to set a new league milestone if they continue to achieve a favorable outcome in the final round. After the match, CAHN officially lifted the V.League 2025/26 championship trophy amid the joy of a large crowd of fans.
At the bottom of the standings, round 25 confirmed two more teams that officially secured their survival. On Pleiku Stadium, Hoàng Anh Gia Lai staged an impressive comeback to defeat Hà Nội FC 3-1. The precious three points lifted the Mountain City team to 10th place with 26 points, ensuring their presence in the V.League 2026/27 season.
Meanwhile, despite losing 0-2 at home to Ninh Bình FC, Đông Á Thanh Hóa officially avoided relegation with one round to spare. The failure of their direct competitors to make any difference allowed the Thanh Hóa side to maintain a safe gap from the bottom of the table and complete their goal of staying in Vietnam's top football league early.
However, the relegation battle remains unresolved after round 25. Currently, Becamex TP.HCM, SHB Đà Nẵng, and PVF-CAND all have 21 points, promising an extremely tense final round. Under the tournament format, the last-placed team will be directly relegated, while the 13th-placed team will enter a play-off against Bắc Ninh Club, the runner-up of the National First Division, for a spot in next season's V.League.
At the top of the table, Ninh Bình FC continues to show strong momentum. Their 2-0 win away at Đông Á Thanh Hóa not only gave coach Chu Đình Nghiêm a favorable debut but also lifted the ancient capital side to third place in the standings, overtaking Hà Nội FC as the season draws to a close.
