Behind, Pho Hien players tried to develop the ball but they could not create many dangerous opportunities.

And on the 11m mark, Xuan Nam easily defeated Ha Tinh's reserve goalkeeper Duong Quang Tuan, equalizing for Pho Hien.

In the second half, despite having one more player, Pho Hien played in a deadlock. Hung Yen's live ball attacks could not overcome the more experienced opponent's defense.
It was only thanks to a dead ball situation that Pho Hien scored the next goal. In the 72nd minute, from a corner kick, Duc Loi jumped high to head the ball into the net for the second goal to keep hope alive.
In the first minute of extra time of the second half, also from a corner kick, Xuan Nam once again spoke up when he chose the right position in the middle of the 5m50 line, headed the ball to seal the score 3-3.
