The first match of the 7th round is the confrontation between Ho Chi Minh City and Vietnam Coal and Minerals. Having not won any match since the beginning of the tournament, coach Cao Chi Thanh and his team played with great determination to get their first point.
However, Vietnam Coal and Minerals relied heavily on long balls and could not achieve the necessary results. In the 43rd minute, from a pass from Nguyen Thi Thuy Linh, Kim Chi finished with a very technical one-touch shot to open the score for HCMC. This result was somewhat regrettable for Vietnam Coal and Minerals, because they played with concentration for most of the first half. The two teams left the field with the advantage leaning towards the team from the city named after Uncle Ho.
Entering the second half, Nguyen Thi Thuy Linh still left her mark on the attack front even though she was a defender. Thuy Linh took a very good corner kick, Thuc Nghi's shot helped double the gap for HCMC.
In the 57th minute, Thuc Nghi made a smart assist for Quynh Anh to escape and shoot into the Vietnam Coal and Mineral Industries net. In the remaining time of the match, Vietnam Coal and Minerals played very hard. Coach Cao Chi Thanh tried to inspire his students, however, that determination has not been rewarded.
The mining team accepted to end the match with a 0-3 defeat. Ho Chi Minh City won 3 points and continued to maintain 2nd place, only 1 point behind the leader Phong Phu Ha Nam but has played 1 more match.
