The second match of the 2024 National U20 Futsal Tournament took place on the afternoon of September 6 at the District 8 Futsal Club Gymnasium (HCMC). Sahako is expected to win all 3 points against the lower-rated representative Dat Vinh Tien.
However, right after the opening whistle, Dat Vinh Tien unexpectedly opened the score in the 6th minute. This goal created momentum for Dat Vinh Tien to maintain the 1-0 lead for the rest of the first half.
On the other side of the front line, Sahako showed a disappointing performance when the match entered the second half. In just 6 minutes from minute 26 to 32, Sahako lost 3 goals in a row.
What Sahako could do in this match was Nguyen Van Tra's consolation goal in the 38th minute, thereby accepting a 1-4 defeat.
The three points helped Dat Vinh Tien climb to the top of Group B with 4 points after 2 matches.
In the remaining match of Group B, Thai Son Bac with a resounding 7-0 victory over Quang Nam also fiercely chased the top spot of Dat Vinh Tien with 3 points, Sahako ranked behind with the same 3 points but with a lower goal difference.
In Group A, U20 Thai Son Nam TPHCM continued to defend the top position when easily defeating U20 Luxury Ha Long with a score of 5-0. In the remaining match, U20 Ha Noi defeated U20 An Phu 4-2 to rise to second place in the group with the same 3 points as Saigon Titans but with a better goal difference.
