With this result, U11 Gia Bao Hai Duong is forced to compete with U11 Viet Hung Thanh Hoa and needs at least 1 draw in the final match on August 1 to ensure a place in the quarterfinals.

In the opening match, U11 Nam Viet was defeated by U11 Viet Hung Thanh Hoa 7-0. However, the community players from Ho Chi Minh City and participating in the national finals for the first time were not discouraged, entering the match with the highest determination to hold on to their hope of reaching the next round. Hope multiplied for the Nam Viet players when in the previous match, their two direct opponents for a place in the quarterfinals, U11 Lang Son and U11 Viet Hung Thanh Hoa, drew 2-2.

The determination to score points in this match was evident from the first minutes, when U11 Nam Viet played deep, defended tightly and organized quick counterattacks. At the end of the first half, Hai Duong players could hardly get close to goalkeeper Nguyen Huy's goal and were forced to shoot from afar. The score of 0-0 was maintained until the end of the first half. In the second half, from a left-wing kick in the attacking direction of Gia Bao Hai Duong, the ball was crossed straight into the penalty area, and a player from Nam Viet headed the ball into his own net. Despite being behind, the players from Nam Viet continued to organize tight defense and counterattack quickly. In a similar phase, goalkeeper Nhat Anh of U11 Gia Bao Hai Duong shook his net. The final score of the match was 1-1.
