In the first match of the qualifying round, U11 Song Lam Nghe An only had to face the team that was considered the weakest in the group. Therefore, as soon as the starting whistle was blown, the Nghe An youth team created great pressure on the opponent's field. Playing at home, with the cheers of a large audience, was a great advantage for coach Duc Anh and his team to play explosively.

After less than 7 minutes of play, U11 Song Lam Nghe An had no less than 3 clear chances to open the score of the match. However, the yellow-shirted players still lacked a bit of luck to be able to convert the chances into goals.

Attacking the center did not bring high efficiency, coach Duc Anh of the home team asked his students to make more attacks from the two wings. The situations of pulling the ball down the wing and passing it to the second post to teammates were performed quite smoothly and accurately by U11 Song Lam Nghe An.

Hoang Hieu's opening goal in the 9th minute of the match was a move that followed exactly the script. His teammate dribbled the ball down to the touchline and then passed it back to Hoang Hieu, the home team's striker had no difficulty tapping the ball into the net to open the score.

After breaking the deadlock, U11 Song Lam Nghe An continuously scored 3 more goals thanks to Hoang Hieu and Ngoc Thinh, ending the first half with a score of 4-0 in favor of the home team.

Entering the second half, Coach Duc Anh’s students still maintained their ability to control the ball. The Nghe An strikers played better and better and scored 3 consecutive goals.

Therefore, it was not difficult for them to create an overwhelming game and have a series of shots on Be Ich Phuoc Sang's goal. At the end of the match, U11 Song Lam Nghe An scored 4 more goals to reach the score of 11-0 against U11 Cao Bang.
