The football movement is not developed, so Ninh Thuan is rated lower than SLNA, which is famous for its youth training. However, a series of quality players from HAGL such as Duy Thanh, Ut Cuong, Minh Hoang... returned to Ninh Thuan to serve their hometown team, helping the home team play quite confidently against the Nghe An team.

Both SLNA and Ninh Thuan were led by midfielders with good attacking ability such as Hoang Thinh (SLNA), Duy Thanh (Ninh Thuan) who brought tension and excitement with their back-to-back attacks right after the opening whistle. However, the lack of sophistication in the decisive moves did not help break the balance on the field after the first 45 minutes.

In the 54th minute, coach Dinh Van Dung decided to look for a breakthrough when he sent striker Dinh Bao onto the field. Just 6 minutes later, the substitute striker scored a goal from a dangerous cross-angle shot. Not stopping there, Dinh Bao himself was the author of the second goal for SLNA after a solo performance that overcame the Ninh Thuan defender and then defeated goalkeeper Thanh Diep from a rather narrow shooting angle.

Winning 2-0, SLNA temporarily rose to the top of Group A even though they had the same 3 points as SHB.DN but had a better goal difference.
