In fact, despite playing at home, coach Nguyen Duc Thang and his team completely controlled the game as the ball almost only rolled on SHB Da Nang's side. However, it was not until the 43rd minute that FLC Thanh Hoa broke the deadlock thanks to Omar.
FLC Thanh Hoa continued to take the lead when Minh Tuan raised the score to 2-0 in the 60th minute. However, the away team encountered fierce resistance from SHB Da Nang because within just 2 minutes from 65 to 67, Duc Chinh and Thanh Hai brought the match back to the starting line with two consecutive goals.
It was thought that Trong Hoang's goal to increase the score to 3-2 in the 85th minute would drown out SHB Da Nang's efforts, but Ewonder shone in stoppage time to bring home 1 point for the home team.
After an emotional match, Coach Nguyen Minh Phuong could not hide his joy in the press conference room: “I feel like I am “dying and coming back to life” right now, this is an emotional match. My players did not give up after being two goals behind, they tried their best to play with the highest spirit until the last minute. I feel satisfied with that, a point at this time is also very valuable for SHB Da Nang.”
