Too impatient with the situations that could not create goals, on the sidelines, coach Tran Van Son instructed his players: "Wherever there is an opening, kick! Wherever there is an opening, kick."

In the match against Nhi Dong Dien Chau on the afternoon of June 9 to win a ticket to the next round, the young players from the "land of rice paper and peanut candy" played very hard. Continuously attacking and dominating the game, but in the first half, they did not score any goals.

The first half of the second half, the match passed in a heavy and tense atmosphere when the pressure of winning or losing was weighing heavily on the players' feet. There were continuous opportunities for Nhi Dong Do Luong but they were not created into goals.

Too impatient with those situations, on the sidelines, Coach Tran Van Son instructed his students: “Wherever there is an opening, kick there! Wherever there is an opening, kick there”. That means when taking a free kick, corner kick or side kick, if you see any “open hole” from the opponent and “shoot” the ball there, you will “surely win”. And finally, listening to the teacher, the young players from Luong had a 1-0 victory over ND Dien Chau.

"Understanding" player

In the match against Vinh City Children's School on the afternoon of June 9, the young players of Tan Ky Children's School left a deep impression in the hearts of fans with their calm, confident playing style and Fair play spirit.

Outside the field, the young players from the homeland of molasses left a good image in everyone's eyes as "understanding children". That is, playing last, the opposing team played first leaving bottles and drink cartons on the field that the janitor had not yet cleaned up. Seeing this, instead of "turning a blind eye", these players quickly gathered the trash into football bags. Notably, when the referee blew the whistle to gather the team, player number 11 Ho Huu Trong Tan tried to pick up the remaining cartons before quickly standing in the lineup.

No bias towards any team

Originally from Tan Ky, working and living in Nghia Dan, Mr. Thai Truong went to Vinh to cheer for the Nghia Dan football team, but coincidentally, Nghia Dan Children's Football Team faced off against Tan Ky Children's Football Team. During the entire match, regardless of which side had a good shot or a goal, Mr. Truong cheered and supported wholeheartedly. Or when the ball was blocked by the post or crossbar, he would cover his face in regret. When the Nghia Dan player had the ball at his feet, endangering Tan Ky Children's Football Team, he excitedly shouted: "Go, go!", but when Tan Ky's goalkeeper pushed the ball out, he did not hesitate to shout loudly: "Great, very good"!

His point of view is "Homeland is a bunch of sweet star fruit" and the place he lives is his "second homeland" so he supports both sides, without bias towards either side.

The "pink" tornado

If the phrase “orange whirlwind” is used to refer to the Dutch team with its fiery, aggressive attacking style, then in this year’s Nghe An Newspaper Cup Youth and Children’s Football Tournament, there is a “pink whirlwind”. This phrase is used to refer to the Phu Tuong young players with all the love and affection of the fans.

Coming to this tournament, the young players of Tuong Duong took the audience and fans from one surprise to another. Although they were rated lower, when going through the group stage, they proved themselves to be the "strong ones" when they had consecutive successful matches, explosive playing style, "fiery" legs and excellently won tickets to the quarterfinals.
