Entering the final round, Quy Hop Children's School faced the top team in Group A, Hoang Mai Town Children's School. In this important match, Quy Hop Children's School played without 3 main players as they had to return home right after the group stage match to take the entrance exam to the district's specialized school.

Despite the absence of their key players, the students still had an explosive and fierce match, winning convincingly against Hoang Mai Town Children's School and earning a ticket to the semi-finals. Meanwhile, from their hometown of Quy Hop, 3 players who came back to take the entrance exam for specialized schools and selective classes also called their teachers and teammates to inform them that they "had completed the exam excellently".

The coach of the Quy Hop team happily hugged the young players and shouted: "You guys are great, you overcame every difficulty and completed every task."

As a strong team, highly rated since the beginning of the season and with what the Dien Chau children's players have shown since the beginning of the season, they deserve to be considered a strong candidate for the championship.

Facing an opponent considered to be “equally matched” as Nhi Dong Yen Thanh (first in Group B), this quarter-final match is considered an “early final” because it is a clash between two strong opponents. According to experts, this is a match with an unpredictable outcome.

On a cool morning, the competition was more explosive, fierce, excellent, and methodical. Dien Chau Children's Team won an absolute victory over Yen Thanh Children's Team to get a ticket to the semi-finals.

The final whistle blew, joy seemed to burst, tears of joy of victory, of overflowing happiness rolled down the cheeks of the young players, of the teachers - coaches of the team with two-colored hair. In the stands, Phu Dien fans also joined in the song“Oh, how happy, so many years of waiting/But the joy comes suddenly/The day goes like a dream/...Why do tears flow when I'm happy?”...(lyrics)Spring in Ho Chi Minh City).
