U15 SLNA beat U15 Hanoi, won first place in the group

Before entering the final round of Group B, both U15 Nghe An and U15 Ha Noi have 6 points after two matches and share the first and second positions. With the points they have, both teams have secured tickets to the quarter-finals. The final match is only to determine the rankings, to choose the team to face in the quarter-finals. If they are at the top of the table, they will have the advantage of only having to face the third-placed team in one of the two groups A or C.

U15 Song Lam Nghe An came to the tournament with a fairly even squad, led by an experienced coach - Dinh Van Dung. Therefore, the Nghe An team achieved very good results, after 2 matches with 6 points and a positive goal difference of 9.

Entering the match with U15 Hanoi, coach Dinh Van Dung's students were highly appreciated by experts and ranked as the favorites. However, shortly after the match's opening whistle, Song Lam Nghe An surprisingly fell behind. The yellow team immediately responded with a goal by Nguyen Quang Lam in the 15th minute.

In the following minutes, Song Lam Nghe An played with great excitement, creating many chances to score in front of the opponent's penalty area. However, it was not until the beginning of the second half that Truong Van Tan Sang raised the score to 2-1 for Song Lam Nghe An. The final result was a 2-1 victory for the Nghe An team against U15 Hanoi.

Thus, after 3 matches, Song Lam Nghe An passed the group stage with a perfect record of 9 wins and a goal difference of 10.

On August 16, U15 Song Lam Nghe An will compete in the quarter-finals, most likely meeting the 3rd place team in Group A.
