U15 Song Lam Nghe An advanced to the quarter-finals with an all-win record. The Nghe An team earned 9 points, scored 11 goals and conceded only 1 goal, thereby winning first place in Group B. Facing U15 Nghe An in the quarter-finals is U15 Ho Chi Minh City. This team is in Group A and won only 1 match, earning 3 points.

Therefore, it is not difficult to understand that after the opening whistle, U15 Nghe An took the initiative and completely controlled the game. The strength of coach Dinh Van Dung's students was confirmed in the 2nd minute of the match. Le Nhat Anh received a pass from his teammate and faced goalkeeper Xuan Tin. However, the player wearing the number 6 shirt missed the goal, missing the opportunity to open the score for U15 Song Lam Nghe An.

Although they could not score, the Nghe An team deployed a variety of attacking options at high speed. U15 Song Lam Nghe An created two dangerous opportunities in the 9th and 10th minutes. Unfortunately, Quoc Hoa was unlucky when he could not score against Hoa Xuan Tin. That was a solo shot by Quoc Hoa, passing through a series of opposing defenders, but the final shot did not hit the target. Immediately after that, the striker's header also went over the crossbar when Xuan Tin was helpless watching the ball.

However, Nghe An fans present at Ham Rong Stadium did not have to feel too regretful. Because in the 21st minute, player Quoc Dung scored the opening goal for U15 Song Lam Nghe An. The goal came from a free kick outside the penalty area by Van Tung, the ball hit the crossbar and bounced out. Number 17 of Nghe An received the ball and handled it neatly, before unleashing a powerful shot, defeating goalkeeper Xuan Tin.

After the goal, coach Dinh Van Dung's players continued to put pressure on the opponent's field. With more than 5 minutes left in the first half, Quoc Hoa doubled the gap for Song Lam Nghe An. The goal came from a powerful dribble by Truong Van Tan Sang on the right wing. This player made an accurate cross for Quoc Hoa to run in and make a perfect header, defeating goalkeeper Xuan Tin.

Not stopping there, in the 40th minute, Van Tung raised the score to 3-0 for Song Lam Nghe An. The player wearing the number 8 jersey, had a brave solo run on the left wing, passing a series of defenders, before having a low diagonal shot, hitting the opponent's net.

Entering the second half, U15 Song Lam Nghe An could no longer maintain the same attacking speed as in the first 45 minutes. However, in the final seconds of the match, substitute striker Trung Quan still scored another goal, to set the score at 4-0 for U15 Nghe An.
