In the Quarterfinals, U13 Song Lam Nghe An faced familiar opponent U13 Hong Linh Ha Tinh, a team that was considered to be of equal strength. Because before the tournament, the two teams had tested each other many times in friendly matches with quite balanced results.

Entering the Quarter-final match, coach Nguyen Van Vinh fielded his strongest squad with prominent names such as Nguyen Vi Manh Hung, Cao Huy Hoang, Nguyen Anh Tai, Le Hai Hoang and Vo Duc Anh. However, with the tense nature of the knockout match, U13 Song Lam Nghe An entered the match quite cautiously, not taking too many risks to push the squad up.

On the opposite side, U13 Hong Linh Ha Tinh also played tightly and disciplined. Therefore, U13 Song Lam Nghe An did not create many opportunities towards goalkeeper Duc Anh's goal (Hong Linh Ha Tinh).

In the first half, there were only about 3 shots on goal of Ha Tinh by U13 Song Lam Nghe An players. However, striker Vo Duc Anh and Hai Hoang could not kick accurately to bring the goal to the home team.

So the first 30 minutes of the match ended without either side opening the score.

Entering the second half, coach Nguyen Van Vinh asked his players to increase the pace of attack and boldly organize coordination to more effectively approach the opponent's goal.

And that worked when in the 33rd minute, U13 Song Lam Nghe An opened the score of the match. Starting from a smart pass from his teammate, Thanh Tai ran down the right wing and then fired a low shot, sending the ball into the far corner, leaving goalkeeper Duc Anh (Hong Linh Ha Tinh) helpless.

After the goal, the spirit of the U13 Song Lam Nghe An players was pushed up. Coach Nguyen Van Vinh's team continuously put pressure on the goal of U13 Hong Linh Ha Tinh. In particular, Vo Duc Anh and Hai Hoang repeatedly made Nguyen Duc Anh's goal (Hong Linh Ha Tinh) fall into an alarming situation.

After many missed chances, in the 57th minute, U13 Song Lam Nghe An doubled the gap. Starting from a pass to the left wing for Duc Anh, this striker used his technique to go past the opposing defender and then made a difficult cross. Before the dangerous ball, the opposing center back made a mistake when he kicked the ball into his own net.

With nothing left to lose, U13 Hong Linh Ha Tinh rose up to find a goal to shorten the score, but coach Nguyen Van Vinh's students took advantage of that to organize a counterattack. And in the final seconds of the match, U13 Song Lam Nghe An once again raised the score to 3-0. The goal came from a delicate close-range shot by striker Vo Duc Anh.

And the score 3-0 was also the final result of the Quarterfinal match between U13 Song Lam Nghe An and U13 Hong Linh Ha Tinh.

Thus, with the victory against U13 Hong Linh Ha Tinh, U13 Song Lam Nghe An officially won a ticket to the 2025 National U13 Semi-finals./.
