2017 V.League 1

The 2017 V.League 1 (known as the Toyota V.League 1 for sponsorship reasons) season was the 61st season of the V.League 1, the highest division of Football in Vietnam. The season began on 7 January 2017 and ended on 25 November 2017.[1] The season was twice interrupted due to the Vietnam Football Federation's decision to stop the league for 4 weeks due to the 2017 FIFA U-20 World Cup, and then again for 7 weeks for the 29th SEA Games.
