Ho Chi Minh City – Viettel

Scored: Seo 26′, Cong Phuong 62′, Huy Toan 67′.

After the first four rounds of silence, Ho Chi Minh City rookie Cong Phuong also `fired` in the V-League, raising the score to 2-0 against Viettel.

Cong Phuong shined on the day Phi Son was suddenly pushed to the reserve by coach Chung Hae-seong.

Cong Phuong scored the fourth goal on all fronts for Ho Chi Minh City.

The two teams entered the game balanced, with an open game at Thong Nhat Stadium.

Five minutes later, goalkeeper Viettel atoned for Cong Phuong’s corner kick.

In the second half, Ho Chi Minh City played defensive counter-attack, which is its forte.

Just five minutes later, Cong Phuong poked through the hole to let Huy Toan escape.

Huy Toan celebrates his first goal in more than two years.

In the last minute, captain Do Van Thuan almost increased the score to 4-0, with a long shot hitting the crossbar.
