In the first minutes of the match, U21 SLNA advanced to find an early goal. However, facing a Hanoi team with depth in their squad, SLNA's attacks were all surrounded by the capital team's defenders. Hanoi showed their experience by choosing a defensive counter-attack strategy. Every time they won the ball from the Nghe An players, they organized a coherent counter-attack, thereby causing many difficulties for the central defender duo Thai Ba Sang and Le Thanh Lam.
U21 SLNA could not put enough pressure on the capital team, on the contrary, Hanoi's counter-attacks always contained many high-level variations. They had some annoying crosses into the sidelines and mid-range passes. In the 50th minute, from a down the right wing, striker Quang Tung opened the score for U21 Hanoi. Having conceded the first goal, U21 SLNA had nothing to lose and focused all their efforts on attacking. But the capital team had a very good strategy, so the Nghe An team could not create any surprises.
The final result was U21 SLNA lost 0-1 to U21 Hanoi.
With that score, the Nghe An team officially stopped at the 2021 National U21 group stage./.
