2000-01 Vietnam First Division is the fifth season of the Vietnam First Division established by the Vietnam Football Federation in 1997.
This is the first season of the First Division after being split into two separate leagues, with the V.League 1 being the top level and the Vietnam First Division being the second level. Previously, the Vietnam First Division was the highest level tournament in the football tournament system in Vietnam from 1997 until the end of the 1999–2000 season. This season, 12 teams will compete in a double round-robin to determine two promoted teams in the V.League 1 and two teams relegated to the 2002 Vietnamese Football League Second Division.[1]
Binh Dinh won the tournament after defeating An Giang with a very large score of 9-2 right at home in the final match.
