Hai Yen and Thanh Nha faded, Hanoi Club I missed the opportunity to rise to second place in the table.

In the early match of Round 10 of the 2024 Thai Son Bac Cup National Women's Championship yesterday afternoon (July 12), the second-ranked team, Thai Nguyen T&T, drew 1-1 with Ho Chi Minh City I Club. Therefore, if Hanoi I Club wins against Phong Phu Ha Nam in the match on July 13, they will officially overtake Thai Nguyen T&T and take second place in the standings.

Coach Dang Quoc Tuan clearly demonstrated his determination to win 3 points by fielding a very strong lineup. Outstanding players such as Hoang Thi Loan, Thanh Nha, and especially captain and striker Hai Yen – who scored 4 goals in the previous round – started the match.

Hanoi Club I (red shirt) took the field with a very strong lineup determined to win 3 points.

After the opening whistle, Hanoi I FC pushed forward in search of an early goal. Throughout the first half, Coach Dang Quoc Tuan's team dominated possession and created several notable chances, but all were missed. Hanoi I FC's attacking players often made inaccurate passes, resulting in wasted opportunities. Even when faced with vast open spaces in front of Phong Phu Ha Nam FC's goal, Hai Yen and Thanh Nha failed to capitalize.

On the opposite side, Phong Phu Ha Nam Club opted for a defensive counter-attacking style of play. Tuyet Dung and her teammates deliberately played slowly, avoiding costly mistakes. As a result, Phong Phu Ha Nam Club didn't have many opportunities, and the first half ended in a 0-0 draw.

Phong Phu Ha Nam Club (white shirt) defended tightly, causing difficulties for Hanoi I.

In the second half, Phong Phu Ha Nam FC maintained their slow-paced style of play, organizing a tight defense. Thanh Hieu and Hoang Van remained in Hanoi I FC's half and rarely touched the ball. Tuyet Dung continued to be the driving force for Phong Phu Ha Nam FC, effectively utilizing her ball-holding ability and controlling the tempo of the game.

Meanwhile, Hanoi I FC made several adjustments to their attack, but none of them proved effective. In the final 20 minutes, the pace of the game intensified significantly. However, Hanoi I FC's strikers remained ineffective, failing to score against Phong Phu Ha Nam.

In the end, Hanoi I drew 0-0 against Phong Phu Ha Nam. Coach Dang Quoc Tuan's team missed the opportunity to move up to second place in the standings. Thanh Nha and his teammates have 21 points, the same as Thai Nguyen T&T Club, but remain in third place due to an inferior goal difference.

Thanh Nha (red shirt) could not take advantage of the opportunity.

Not only did Hanoi I FC miss the opportunity to change their position, but they also saw their points total (21 points) equaled by Than KSVN FC, who were ranked behind them. This was because in the match played at the same time, the team from the "mining region" secured a comfortable 2-0 victory against Hanoi II.

Truc Huong (in the blue shirt) helped Than KSVN Club win against Hanoi II.

Facing only the bottom-ranked team, Than KSVN dominated the entire match. In the 33rd minute, national team player Nguyen Thi Truc Huong scored with a precise shot, opening the scoring for Than KSVN. In the 52nd minute, Pham Thi Nham and her teammates executed a series of beautiful coordinated plays, sealing a 2-0 victory for Than KSVN.
