Before entering this match, Tre Song Lam Nghe An only had 2 points after 2 matches and temporarily ranked 5th in Group A, National Third Division Football Tournament 2022. Meanwhile, Golden position Kon Tum and Luxury Ha Long both have 4 points and temporarily share the first and second positions in the rankings.

To gain the right to self-determination in this group, coach Nguyen Van Tien's team needs to beat the team at the bottom of the table - Young People's Public Security. After watching the 2 matches, Young People's Public Security has low strength. Therefore, the Nghe An Youth Football Team can completely overcome this opponent to catch up with the teams above.

Going into this match, Tre Song Lam Nghe An had 2 substitutions compared to the previous match. In which, Nguyen Hai Dang and Nguyen Xuan Thin were on the field from the start.

Determined to win all 3 points, after the opening whistle, coach Nguyen Van Tien's students quickly took control of the game. With short-range passes, Tre Song Lam Nghe An forced the opponent's defense to defend with difficulty. The diversity in the approach to the goal was clearly seen in the yellow shirt team's playing style.

From those diverse attacking options, the Song Lam Nghe An Youth Team quickly took the lead against the People's Public Security Youth Team. Ngo Van Luong's goal came in the 26th minute, starting from a bold breakthrough in the middle area by Truong Van Tuyen, forcing the opponent to commit a foul in the penalty area. On the penalty spot, the captain of the Nghe An youth football team easily scored against the opponent, opening the score of the match.

The early lead created a comfortable mentality for the yellow-shirted team. Continuous attacks from many directions put the Youth Public Security team's goal on alert. However, it was not until the 55th minute that Le Van Quy doubled the gap for Youth Song Lam Nghe An. Defender Dao Ngoc Tu dribbled the ball vigorously on the right wing, before crossing the ball accurately for the Nghe An number 10 to jump high and head the ball past the opposing goalkeeper.

However, in the 70th minute, coach Nguyen Van Tien's students extinguished the hope of a comeback for the Young People's Public Security with a goal that sealed the 3-1 victory for the Young Song Lam Nghe An.

Thus, after 3 matches, the Nghe An youth football team has 5 points and temporarily rose to 3rd place in group A. On October 21, Song Lam Nghe An Youth will meet Hanoi Youth.
