In the second match of Group B at Ton Duc Thang University on March 20, there are a lot of wonderful goals scored, and the teams from Nha Trang College of Technology and Tra Vinh University earn two tickets to the quarterfinals.
An emotional comeback
With an amazing comeback to defeat the College of Economics (Hue University) team, Tra Vinh University earns the first ticket to the quarterfinals of the 2nd Vietnam Student Football Tournament 2024 – THACO Cup.
After losing the first match, the College of Economics (Hue University) squad is determined to win against Tra Vinh University in the second match. Creating a better attack formation this time, the Central Coast representative scores a goal in the tenth minute when player Ngo Le Dinh Khanh converts a penalty.
The goal has helped increase the mood of the College of Economics (Hue University) team, whereas the players of Tra Vinh University upped the pressure to score an equalizer. There’s a surprising twist in the second half when Huynh Dang Khoa performs a stunning long-range strike with his left foot and defeats the goalkeeper of the College of Economics (Hue University) team, giving the Southwest representative a 1-1 tie.
In order to win all three points, both the College of Economics (Hue University) team and the Tra Vinh University team concentrate on attacking. Engrossed in ineffective attacks, the College of Economics (Hue University) team suddenly concedes a goal in the 74th minute. Kim Hien Nhan defeats the College of Economics (Hue University) team’s goalkeeper with a bold and precise long-range shot. Thanks to the stunning goal from Hien Nhan, the Tra Vinh University team defeats the College of Economics (Hue University) 2-1 and completes their comeback. This valuable goal also helps coach Tram Quoc Nam and his team achieve the first ticket to the quarterfinals with 4 points. “The excellent match that my students performed makes me extremely happy and proud. They are all rewarded with an emotional victory since they truly gave it their all to uphold Tra Vinh University’s reputation. On behalf of the team, I would like to express my gratitude to the supporters who have traveled over a long distance to cheer for them,” says coach Tram Quoc Nam.
Although they have not got a point after losing both matches, the College of Economics (Hue University) team still has a chance if they win against the Van Hien University team in the final match.
An easy victory
In the other match of Group B, the Nha Trang College of Technology team easily defeats the Van Hien University team 4-0. As a result, the South Central – Central Highlands representative also receives the ticket to the THACO Cup 2024 quarterfinals.
After defeating the College of Economics (Hue University) team in the first round, the Nha Trang College of Technology team was almost guaranteed to advance to the next round. Due to their strong lineup and more experienced playing style, the Nha Trang College of Technology team holds the upper hand as the ball primarily only rolls on the Van Hien University’s half of the field. Meanwhile, the Van Hien University team, led by the professional coaches Nguyen Anh Tong and Nguyen Van Ngan, is not able to hold their ground against their aggressive opponent.
Beautiful goals give the Nha Trang College of Technology team a 2-0 lead after the first half. Pi Nang Thai An opens the goal with a risky volley, and Tran Trong Nghia doubles the gap with a direct free kick. In the second half of the match, coach Bui Xuan Vinh’s team plays leisurely and scores two more goals thanks to Pham Huynh Minh Dat and Nguyen Minh Khang. The final score of 4-0 helps the Nha Trang College of Technology team rise to the top of Group B with 6 points. The team will meet the Tra Vinh University team in the final round.
The Van Hien University team still has a chance to go on, even though they lose this time. If they do not lose the final match against the College of Economics (Hue University) team, the Van Hien University team will be able to advance to the round of the eight best teams.
