In the two matches this afternoon, U13 PVF was the team that won quite easily against their opponent U13 T&T VSH. Meanwhile, U13 Ha Tinh had to wait until the last minutes of the match to score consecutive goals against U13 Quang Nam.

Specifically, in the match against U13 PVF with superior physique and physical strength, U13 T&T VSH completely dominated their opponents. For most of the match, Mr. Mai Tien Thanh's team almost completely controlled the game. PVF's ability to hold the ball and coordinate with the team was outstanding. Although T&T VSH proactively chose a defensive counter-attacking style of play, with their superior strength, the team from Hung Yen easily exploited the weaknesses that their opponents had revealed. Players like captain Tran Hoang Khanh or Hoang Trong Duy Khang showed their superiority in physique, physical strength and personal technique. For captain Hoang Khanh, he is a midfielder with a fairly modern way of thinking, showing that he is a player who has a great influence on PVF's attacking style. In addition, Mr. Mai Tien Thanh has also built for his team a scientific and highly team-oriented style of play.

With those outstanding points, not long after the opening whistle, U13 PVF scored the opening goal of the match. The goal was scored by Tran Hoang Khanh, after a beautiful curling shot from outside the penalty area. Although leading, PVF still pushed the speed of the match to put pressure on the opponent and when the second half passed not long, Mr. Mai Tien Thanh's team raised the score to 2-0. This was a goal that was organized quite beautifully and methodically. Player Hoang Trong Duy Khang was the player who scored the second goal. The striker wearing the number 7 shirt received a pass from his teammate, completely eliminating the T&T VSH defense, then he had a low cross-angle shot to defeat goalkeeper Chu Ba Huan. At the end of the match, U13 PVF scored another goal thanks to Nguyen Trung Anh Viet.

Despite losing, we still have to praise the fighting spirit of the U13 T&T VSH players. Although they are only 11 and 12 years old, they played very bravely.

With a 3-0 victory, U13 PVF entered the final match. Mr. Mai Tien Thanh - Head Coach of PVF expressed his satisfaction with the performance of his players, he said: "Today, the students played very well and had an overwhelming victory over their opponents. What impressed me most in this match was that my players demonstrated the playing style according to the philosophy that the team has built. In addition, although we met the T&T VSH team with players born in 2009, our team always respected and never looked down on the opponent.

Looking forward to the final, I always want my students to play beautiful, fun football and always show themselves well, but I do not put too much pressure on results. I will advise them to play like the past matches, with the most comfortable spirit."

For the second match in the semi-finals, before entering the match, U13Ha Tinhrated higher than the opponent U13 QNK Quang Nam. However, facing a very important match, both teams entered the match cautiously. Although Ha Tinh's coordination was somewhat more coherent, their ball control time in the first half was not much better than their opponent's. The sharp coordination of Tran Duc Toan's students made Quang Nam's defense somewhat confused and that was what helped Ha Tinh score the opening goal of the match. The goal was scored by Nguyen Ngoc Manh. This striker wearing the number 22 shirt stole the ball from the opponent's feet, then made a bold breakthrough on the right wing, then unleashed a powerful left-footed shot that defeated the Quang Nam goalkeeper.

But the joy of Ha Tinh players did not last long because less than 5 minutes later, U13 Quang Nam had an equalizer by Nguyen Thanh Sang. The goal was the result of a perfect corner kick, the defender wearing shirt number 2 jumped high and headed the ball into the far corner, defeating goalkeeper Duc Manh.

Entering the second half, Ha Tinh showed greater determination, putting pressure on the opponent's field for most of the match. Coach Tran Duc Toan applied many attacking options to his players, but Ha Tinh unfortunately missed many opportunities. When it seemed like the two teams would have to go to a penalty shootout, Ha Tinh scored 3 consecutive goals against their opponents. The person who sparked that victory was Nguyen Van Khanh. This number 10 had a bold breakthrough in the middle, forcing the Quang Nam defender to commit a foul in front of the penalty area. Khanh himself took a beautiful free kick to raise the score to 2-1 for U13 Ha Tinh. After conceding the goal, Quang Nam could not keep calm and let the match fall apart. Player Nguyen Doan Manh scored 2 consecutive goals, thereby sealing a 4-1 victory for U13 Ha Tinh.

With the overwhelming victory, it can once again be affirmed that U13 Ha Tinh is one of the strong teams of this year's tournament. Unable to hide his joy, Mr. Tran Duc Toan said: "I am very happy to have won this victory. I always encourage my students when entering the field to always be thirsty for victory. They must always be confident in performing individual techniques and tactics that have been practiced. And in this match, they played very well, I have complete confidence in them. Looking forward to the final match, I want them to play a fierce match, dedicating all the talents they have. I will give them more spirit to confidently enter the final match."

The final match will be a highly anticipated match in this year's tournament. This will be a good match, with high professional quality, coming from emerging football training centers in Vietnam. The final match will take place at Vinh Stadium on the afternoon of December 31. To ensure safety against the epidemic, the match will not welcome spectators to watch and cheer.
