With a run of five consecutive undefeated matches, Sanna Khanh Hoa – Bien Vietnam (Sanna KH-BVN) has overcome many strong teams, jumping to the second position on the rankings. Although this is not the final result of V-League 2018, it is really a memorable hallmark of the team and their supporters.
The ranking table of V-League 2018 has been seeing unpredictable changes of positions. Hanoi has still maintained their first position with a quite huge gulf between them and the rest of the table. Than Quang Ninh took the second position from the start of the season until round 16 and has been replaced by Sanna KH-BVN after round 17. Than Quang Ninh suffered their third consecutive loss after being defeated by Hanoi in their latest match. This opened the opportunities for the teams behind to narrow the gap. Sanna KH-BVN even took the best of Than Quang Ninh’s defeats to climb to the second position with 28 points after 17 rounds.

It is normal for the strong candidates for the championship like Hanoi, FLC Thanh Hoa and Than Quang Ninh, etc. to place in top three. Meanwhile, Sanna KH-BVN has never been evaluated as a strong squad that is competitive for the champion title since joining V-League in 2015. The team has no stars and has played with most of the local players who were trained in the province’s sports centers. The players of Khanh Hoa have only played with a high sense of determination to achieve the best results possible. The sixth position at the 2017 V-League was considered as a success of Khanh Hoa’s representative.
Sitting at the second position, Sanna KH-BVN is having opportunity to win the 2018 V-League title. Hanoi is still leading the table. V-League 2018 is seeing a close competition with only some points between the teams. Therefore, the result of a round will probably dramatically change the positions of the teams on the table. With nine rounds left to play, Sanna KH-BVN will have to compete against tough rivals like Hoang Anh Gia Lai, FLC Thanh Hoa, Hai Phong, and Hanoi. It is difficult to predict the result of this year’s season. Hopefully, the recent good results will become a driving force helping Sanna KH-BVN to keep playing well.
