Host Binh Duong disappoints, PVF shows off its strength

U.19 Binh Duong disappointed

After the opening match against Dong Thap 1-0, the home team U.19 Becamex Binh Duong may have been under psychological pressure and therefore did not play well. Despite having 3 points, the team from the capital did not leave much of a professional impression as their coordination still lacked sharpness. Therefore, everyone is expecting that in the second match, when they meet U.19 Hue, coach Nguyen Duy Phuong and his team will play better.

U.19 Binh Duong deadlocked

Disappointment of the coaching board of Binh Duong U.19 team

But the 90 minutes of the match at Binh Duong Stadium only left fans disappointed. Still playing in a monotonous style, still lacking a leader and still lacking efficiency in the final handling situations, so the home team was very stuck. Many attacks by U.19 Binh Duong through the feet of Hoai Phong, Anh Kiet, Dang Khoa or To Vu Sinh were not connected, continuously leaving regrets for the viewers. It was the haste when losing early that made the home team's playing style as awkward as a chicken caught in its hair, combined with the fact that U.19 Hue set up a very good defensive trap, making Binh Duong's coordination phases seem to hit a wall.

The joy of victory of U.19 Hue

Meanwhile, the way U.19 Hue entered the game was still very confident and proactive, just like the way they put pressure on PVF early on the opening day. Thanks to the early concentration and coherent play, the ancient capital team scored a goal from the 5th minute, scored by Duong Anh Vu (23). The tight defensive style, simple counter-attacks, and always knowing how to put pressure back helped coach Duong Cong Quoc and his team not only neutralize the home team's style of play but also successfully defend the score. Towards the end of the match, reserve player Pham Ngoc Thanh Thao (7) of Hue received 2 consecutive yellow cards in the 89th and 90+5th minutes. Not only that, in the 2 minutes of extra time before that, Van Dong and goalkeeper Phuc Nguyen also received yellow cards from referee Phan Van Tuan. But U.19 Hue had to do everything not only to slow down the opponent to gain 3 worthy points but also open up the opportunity to compete for a ticket to the next round.

PVF is too strong, entering the quarterfinals early

Unlike the somewhat difficult opening match against Hue, the PVF U.19 team led by coach Nguyen Duy Dong did not spend too much effort to easily defeat Dong Thap 3-1. All 3 goals were scored in the first 45 minutes, making the game quite easy for the current U.21 champion team. Although more than half of the team was changed compared to the first match, the stars from Hung Yen such as Nguyen Le Phat, Bui Hoang Son, Nguyen Hoang Anh, Khuc Trung Hieu, Le Nguyen Quoc Trung still showed their superiority over the team from the Southwest region.

The joy of scoring by Le Thang Long (PVF)

U.19 PVF's 3 goals came in just the last 16 minutes of the first half after a series of intense attacks and well-coordinated situations. Defender Le Thang Long was the first to open the scoring, then Khuc Trung Hieu increased the score to 2-0 and Nguyen Hoang Anh added the final mark against Nguyen The Vinh of U.19 Dong Thap. The easy win meant that PVF players were a bit more relaxed in the second half, but Le Huynh Trieu only scored an honorary goal.

With 6 points after 2 matches, U.19 PVF has secured a spot in Group A to enter the quarter-finals regardless of the result of the last match against host Binh Duong. This group has the possibility of 3 teams with 6 points advancing if Hue wins Dong Thap and Binh Duong wins PVF in the last match, but it is also possible that 3 teams will have 3 points if Dong Thap wins Hue and PVF wins Binh Duong. Then the team with the better head-to-head record will advance. Therefore, the competition for the next spots in this group will be fierce until the last minute.

U.19 PVF's siege against Dong Thap

On the afternoon of February 24, 4 matches of groups B and C will continue. The most exciting is the heated match between U.19 SLNA and The Cong Viettel (2 p.m.) in group C and Dong A Thanh Hoa vs. Hanoi (4 p.m.) in group B. The remaining matches are U.19 LPBank HAGL vs. Phu Yen and U.19 Binh Phuoc vs. Khanh Hoa.
