According to the official announcement from the LPBank V-League Organizing Committee, two foreign players Alan Alexandre (No. 72, CAHN) and Lucao (No. 9, Hai Phong) both scored 14 goals, becoming the owners of the V-League Top Scorer title this year.

Before this announcement, striker Nguyen Tien Linh ( Binh Duong ) also scored 14 goals, but after the Organizing Committee reviewed, the goal in the 90+3 minute of the Binh Duong Club striker in the match against Hai Phong in round 25 was determined to be an own goal by defender Bui Tien Dung (Hai Phong). The Organizing Committee did not count Tien Linh's goal, so he has 13 goals in V-League 2024/25.

Despite losing the Golden Boot title, Tien Linh is still the domestic striker with the most goals, helping Binh Duong finish in 7th place overall.

After knowing that he "missed" the Golden Boot, Tien Linh shared on his personal page: "I 'm really sad ". He has tried very hard this season but still cannot achieve the prestigious individual title. In the past, Tien Linh scored 15 goals in the 2018 season.
