It took only 13 minutes for Duy Khang to open the scoring against PVF-CAND, after taking advantage of a chaotic situation in front of the goal of the Nghe An team. The loss was like a bucket of cold water, making the young Nghe An players play awkwardly. Therefore, 4 minutes later, PVF-CAND doubled the gap with Duy Khang's goal. In the 21st minute, Khanh Hung scored the third goal for PVF-CAND.

The three shocking goals left SLNA in a quandary, even when Quang Vinh narrowed the gap in the 32nd minute. Therefore, in the second half, when SLNA pushed up the pressure, they were immediately hit by a counterattack with Van Bach's fourth goal for PVF-CAND. Even when Duy Hao narrowed the gap to 2-4 for SLNA, the Nghe An team had to swallow their pride and accept defeat before their "rivals".
