Binh Duong players burst into happiness after securing the championship title. 

 

 

1. First team to sack manager

Becamex Binh Duong was the first team to change their manager in the 2014 V-League season as they chose Nguyen Thanh Son as the new manager to replace Nguyen Minh Dung after just two rounds of play. At the same time the team invited former coach Le Thuy Hai to work as its technical director. These timely and effective adjustments paved the way for Binh Duong’s success.

2. Best defensive line

Binh Duong demonstrated the firmest defensive tactics during their 23 matches in the 2014 V-League, conceding just 22 goals and keeping a clean sheet in seven matches. In the context of the high scoring championship, Binh Duong’s excellent defence proved invaluable as they conceded just 0.05% of the total 448 goals scored after 23 games.

3. Many offensive players

Binh Duong’s 52 goals were scored by 11 different players including Anh Duc, Trong Hoang, Tan Tai, Suleiman, Huynh Kesley, Quang Vinh, Van Thanh, Moses, Abass, Tang Tuan and Tien Thanh. The newly-crowned V-League champions displayed their offensive ability by having the most players to score, while Hanoi T&T, which had the best attack line this season, had their 61 goals netted by just eight players.

4. Say no to red cards

No red cards were shown to Becamex Binh Duong as the 23rd round wrapped up last weekend. Their players received just 22 yellow cards on the way to the overall title, with none of them granted any suspension sentences since the 2014 V-League began (a player with three yellow cards receives a one-game suspension).

5. Dominant in most games

Possessing one of the most qualified line-ups at the 2014 V-League, Becamex Binh Duong were always pro-active in their matches. They controlled their games, corroded their opponent’s physical strengths and produced critical hits at the ends of each half.
