Despite being considered the underdog, Da Nang entered the match with great determination and dominated their opponent. The team from the Han River did not hesitate to push forward, proactively controlling the game and constantly putting pressure on Hai Phong's goal. For most of the first half, coach Le Duc Tuan's players controlled the game, although they struggled with finishing.

In the 34th minute, Da Nang's efforts were rewarded. From a quick counter-attack, Makaric sprinted past the Hai Phong defense before facing the goalkeeper and calmly finishing to open the scoring. The goal helped the home team relieve pressure after a series of missed opportunities earlier in the match.

In the second half, the game didn't change much, with Da Nang continuing to dominate. They maintained good ball control, organized many dangerous attacks, and constantly forced Hai Phong's defense to defend. More promising opportunities were created, demonstrating the great determination of the team currently at the bottom of the table.

In the 81st minute, Da Nang scored their second goal, virtually sealing the match. From a well-placed cross by Hong Phuc, Makaric rushed in and finished neatly, completing his brace and increasing the score to 2-0.

Conversely, Hai Phong failed to create many notable opportunities. The visitors' clearest chance came in the 81st minute when Antonio had a shot from a favorable position. However, goalkeeper Van Toan made an excellent save, keeping a clean sheet for the home team.

In the end, Da Nang secured a convincing 2-0 victory. This result propelled the team from the Han River to 12th place in the standings with 20 points, pushing PVF-CAND back to the bottom and making the relegation battle more intense than ever. This was only Da Nang's fourth win of the season. Like in previous seasons, the teams at the bottom of the table showed increasing determination as the crucial stages approached.

In other matches played at the same time, Ninh Binh drew 1-1 with Ho Chi Minh City Police, while Thanh Hoa also shared points with HAGL with the same score.
