In the first match at 3:00 PM, despite being the favorites, Sahako failed to secure all three points against Sài Gòn Titans. The “Three-legged Crow” took an early lead with goals from Vũ Đức Tùng (3′) and Huỳnh Huy Hảo (5′). However, a red card for Lê Quốc Nam in the 15th minute disrupted their momentum. Sài Gòn Titans seized the opportunity to reduce the score to 1-2. Not stopping there, in the final moments of the match, Gia Thọ scored an equalizer with a close-range finish, bringing the game to a 2-2 draw for the home team.
In the second match at 6:00 PM, living up to the fans’ expectations, the newcomer HCMC Youth delivered a disciplined performance and won 4-3 against Luxury Ha Long, after a thrilling back-and-forth match.
It was a bit disappointing for Luxury Ha Long, as they created a good game but struggled with finishing. The turning point came in the 38th minute when they were reduced to 4 players due to Danh Toại’s red card, which led to an additional goal conceded and left them empty-handed in their opening match.
