Right after the opening whistle, Thai Nguyen T&T proactively pushed up their attack formation and put strong pressure on the HCMC women's team. However, coach Kim Chi's students were not shy and quickly responded with sharp attacks.
Main striker Huynh Nhu of the HCMC women's team continues to be a constant danger in front of the opponent's goal. Right in the first free kick, Huynh Nhu made goalkeeper Kim Thanh show his excellent save.
After Huynh Nhu's shot, the match was exciting with a balanced game. Although Thai Nguyen T&T tried their best to create opportunities, young players like Ngoc Minh Chuyen still could not take advantage of good situations in front of goalkeeper Quach Thu Em's goal.
An important turning point came in the 36th minute, Ho Chi Minh City was awarded a penalty when Tran Thi Thu of Thai Nguyen T&T used her hand to play football. On the 11m mark, Huynh Nhu made no mistake to defeat goalkeeper Kim Thanh, opening the score 1-0.
In the second half, Thai Nguyen T&T increased the pressure to find an equalizer. However, although Bich Thuy and Minh Chuyen had some notable opportunities, goalkeeper Quach Thu Em played excellently, successfully defending the home team's net.
In the end, Ho Chi Minh City women's club won with a score of 1-0. With this victory, Ho Chi Minh City Women's Club won the 2025 Women's National Cup, continuing to affirm its leading position in domestic women's football.
