Dien Chau National Team rises to the top of Group A.

(Baonghean.vn) - In the second match of Group A this morning, June 11th, facing a supposedly weaker opponent, Thanh Chuong Youth Team, despite some difficulties at the beginning of the match, Dien Chau Youth Team secured a resounding victory to temporarily lead the "group of death".

Having demonstrated their strength in the opening match's 3-3 draw against Yen Thanh, and possessing a physical advantage, Dien Chau team launched an attack right after the opening whistle. However, the underdog Thanh Chuong team was the one to score the opening goal. In the 5th minute, following a corner kick, number 9 Nguyen Hoang Linh received the ball just outside the penalty area and unleashed a powerful low shot, beating goalkeeper Cao Quang Dung.
