The highlight of the second round taking place on February 12 is the match between defending champion Phong Phu Ha Nam and Hanoi - last season's runner-up.
With the goal of winning all 3 points to reclaim the top position in the rankings, Phong Phu Ha Nam immediately raised the pitch and attacked. In contrast, Ha Noi did not hesitate to stick with their opponents and launch counterattacks. However, the first half of the match had no goals as both sides' strikers missed many opportunities.
Entering the second half, the game became more open and what had to happen happened. In the 53rd minute, Phong Phu Ha Nam unexpectedly scored the opening goal. Receiving a pass from her teammate, Bui Thi Hong Nhung fired a beautiful long-range shot from outside the penalty area and Hanoi goalkeeper Ngoc Anh had no chance to block it.
Just 3 minutes later, Minh Anh had a great pass to Luu Hoang Van. This striker calmly passed the opposing goalkeeper and finished into an empty net, raising the score to 2-0 for Phong Phu Ha Nam.
The next match of round 2 is the confrontation between Thai Nguyen T&T and Zantino Vinh Phuc. Being underestimated by their opponent, Zantino Vinh Phuc decided to retreat deep into their home field to defend and wait for the right moment to counterattack.
They created a huge surprise when they scored the opening goal. In the 18th minute, taking advantage of a gap in Thai Nguyen T&T's defense, Luong Ngoc Anh scored a tricky shot to help Zantino Vinh Phuc take the lead.
Not accepting defeat, coach Phuong Nam asked his players to attack. With a balanced and experienced force, Thai Nguyen T&T soon got what they needed. In the 27th minute, Nguyen Ngo Thao Nguyen put his name on the scoreboard and tied the score at 1-1.
In the second half, the great pressure made the Zantino Vinh Phuc defense unable to stand firm. Thu Trang was the one who scored the goal to make the score 2-1 for Thai Nguyen T&T.
In the late match at 5:30 p.m. the same day, Ho Chi Minh City had its first victory in the tournament when it defeated Vietnam Coal and Minerals with a score of 5-0, thereby winning all 3 points.
