2016 continues to be an unsuccessful season for Binh Thuan. Although the goal of relegation is completed, the playing style of the players has many problems. During the entire season, the club was always in the top "holding the red light" with a very high risk of relegation when only a few points above the bottom team. In 12 matches, the team won only 2 matches, drew 6 and lost 4, ranked 5th overall in the qualifying round of Group A. Binh Thuan team had the least number of goals among 14 participating teams when they only scored 8 table. This is the lowest record ever in the team's history.[2][3]

In the first match of the final round, the club won a minimal victory over Lam Dong thanks to Trinh Duc Bon's only goal.[4] The next two matches, the team continuously lost 0–3 to Cong An Nhan Dan[5] and 0-3 first Hà Nội B.[6] The club must play a play-off match to win promotion. Here, the team lost 1–2 to Dong Thap, continuing to miss the opportunity to promote.

At the final match held on June 8, 2022, at 19 August Stadium, Nha Trang, Khanh Hoa. In the 33rd minute of the match, defender Ngo Anh Vu from Binh Thuan side had an error with an opponent player. Referee Tran Ngoc Nho showed the midfielder a second yellow card, meaning he was disqualified. Disagreed with that decision, Ngo Anh Vu attacked referee Tran Ngoc Nho. Everything ended only after the security forces and the coaching staff of the two teams intervened.[7] Binh Thuan was leading 2-0 and played at a loss after 45 minutes of play.
