Thai Son Nam were considered a stronger team as they were the national league defending champions, and they also defeated their rivals in last year’s finals, with the same result.

However, Thai Son Nam started carefully, playing in counter-attack, and they found an opener with a close tap-in by Dac Huy in the middle of the first half.

In the second half, Tran Danh Phat tipped the score to 2-0 for Thai Son Nam after a counter-attack. Phat then became the player of the tournament.

Hai Phuong Nam tried to narrow the result, switching to play power pressing.

They created a number of chances but only Tan Phat succeeded with a long-distance finish at the end of the match.

“Thai Son Nam deserved the victory. We took our opportunities and used suitable tactics against our rivals,” said coach Nguyen Bao Quan.

Thai Son Nam brought home their second National Cup trophy and a bonus of VND100 million (US$4,500).

Sai Gon FC won the bronze medal.

The champions were also the most fair-play team of the tournament.

Ngo Dinh Thuan earned the title of “best goalie.”

Sanna Khanh Hoa won the best scorer award, with seven goals.
