At home, Phong Phu Ha Nam was determined to defeat Ho Chi Minh City on the evening of October 19. They soon got what they needed when Luu Hoang Van scored the opening goal of the match in the 23rd minute. However, the team from the city named after Uncle Ho surprised everyone when they scored the equalizer in the first half.
In the 32nd minute, Dau Nguyen Quynh Anh finished impressively and put her name on the scoreboard. The draw helped HCMC's fighting spirit improve significantly compared to the beginning of the match. In the remaining minutes of the first half, Phong Phu Ha Nam was not sharp enough to make HCMC pick the ball out of the net for the second time. The first 45 minutes ended in a draw.
Entering the second half, coach Tran Le Thuy and her team continued to maintain great pressure on the opponent's field. However, it was not until the 88th minute that Anh Ngoc was able to score and seal the 2-1 victory for Phong Phu Ha Nam.
The surprise happened in the match between Zantino Vinh Phuc and Thai Nguyen T&T. Although rated lower than the opponent, Zantino Vinh Phuc unexpectedly scored the opening goal of the match in the 13th minute. Nguyen Thi Tuoi's accurate shot helped the Northern team take the lead. Not accepting this result, Thai Nguyen T&T rose up to attack.
Unfortunately, the tea team was somewhat lacking in sharpness in the first 45 minutes. The first half passed with the advantage for Zantino Vinh Phuc. But the second half was the time when Thai Nguyen T&T regained what they had lost. In the 53rd minute, Thuy Nga maintained her impressive form when she continued to score to equalize 1-1. Just 4 minutes later, Thu Trang scored against Zantino Vinh Phuc and sealed the 2-1 victory.
Thus, Phong Phu Ha Nam successfully defended the championship without losing any match. The runner-up position belonged to Ha Noi and Thai Nguyen T&T won the third place.
