Ninh Bình makes a big move on the day of the fierce battle against Thép Xanh Nam Định

Ninh Bình Club is providing 1,000 tickets free of charge to Nam Định supporters for the game between the two teams at 6:00 PM on September 22 at the Ninh Bình venue.

On September 22, the final match of round 4 in the 2025/26 V-League season will take place between Ninh Bình Club and Thép Xanh Nam Định. This is one of the most exciting "derby" matches following the provincial merger this round.

Notably, ahead of the match, the Hoa Lư capital team surprised everyone by offering 1,000 free tickets to Nam Định fans to come to Ninh Bình stadium and support both teams. The tickets were distributed through Thép Xanh Nam Định Club to ensure they reached the right supporters.

"This activity demonstrates the respect and connection that Ninh Bình FC has with Nam Định football fans", Ninh Bình Club stated.

Ninh Bình and Nam Định are two leading contenders competing for the V-League championship this season. The home team Ninh Bình has shown impressive form with a perfect winning streak so far. However, their previous opponents were mid-table or lower-ranked teams, so the match against Nam Định will be a true test of their capability.

Meanwhile, the defending champions have displayed a rather disappointing performance this season. After 4 rounds (including an early round), Nam Định has only won 2 matches (against Hải Phòng and PVF-CAND), lost 1 to SLNA, and recently drew with Công an TPHCM. On the standings, coach Vũ Hồng Việt’s team has just 7 points, ranking 6th, despite having played one more match than others.
