Cong Phuong faded, Binh Phuoc barely won against Ho Chi Minh City Youth

Thanh Binh scored to help Binh Phuoc beat Ho Chi Minh City Youth.

Ho Chi Minh City Youth welcomed Binh Phuoc at Thong Nhat Stadium with the hope of gaining 1 point to avoid being left behind in the relegation race. After the opening whistle, Coach Tran Duy Quang asked his players to retreat deep into their own half. They accepted to give up the game to their opponents to protect their goal.

Under the command of goalkeeper Duong Van Cuong, the young Ho Chi Minh City defense played with concentration. Nguyen Cong Phuong was the target of many attacks but the away team was not effective in decisive situations. The striker born in 1995 was absent for most of the first half.

Binh Phuoc narrowly defeated Ho Chi Minh City Youth.

The first dangerous chance of the match belonged to Ho Chi Minh City Youth. After a pass from his teammate, Nguyen Van Van shot dangerously from outside the penalty area but Tan Truong played with concentration. On the other side of the battle line, when Cong Phuong could not escape the marking of Ho Chi Minh City Youth defenders, the opportunity came to his teammate.

Nguyen Vu Hoang Duong and Ho Sy Giap had two more notable shots. However, the goal did not come to Binh Phuoc. The first 45 minutes passed without many highlights. The two teams entered the break with the score tied at 0-0.

In dire need of a win to stay close to the top team, Cong Phuong and his teammates rushed to attack in the second half. In the 47th minute, from a delicate pass from Hoang Minh Tam, the defender of Tre TP.HCM did not clear the ball decisively, Le Thanh Binh jumped high to head the ball to open the score for Binh Phuoc Club. However, this goal did not help the away team have a better game.

Ho Chi Minh City youth team played more effectively and efficiently than Binh Phuoc. At the end of the second half, Anh Thong and his teammates had 2 more chances to score but they lacked finesse when facing Bui Tan Truong.

The home team searched hard for a goal but their efforts were not rewarded. Binh Phuoc seemed satisfied with the minimal score and tried to protect their achievement. In the end, Binh Phuoc won with a score of 1-0.
