Nguyễn Ritchell fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 7th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Trần Phu having to interfere. If Trần Minh Phượng had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 9th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. An unexpectedly hard shot by Trần Minh Phượng in the 10th minute of play forced Ca Mau's goalkeeper Lê Bay to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.

Lê Bay showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Trần Minh Phượng in the 15th minute of the match. The audience was convinced that Dương Van Tai Em's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Lê Bay was relentless in the 16th minute of the game. The audience thought a goal was coming when Đoàn Dung got free with Trần Phu in the 30th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. 0-2 became the score in the 31st minute when Trần Minh Phượng elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar. If Đoàn Dung had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 36th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Lê Bay took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Trần Minh Phượng, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 41 minutes into the match, Ca Mau's goal looked a bit too open when Trần Minh Phượng came free, but Lê Bay reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 42 minutes into the game, Garu FC's Dương Van Tai Em nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Lê Bay made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 0-3. In the 46th minute, Dương Van Tai Em got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. The crowd was extremely unhappy with the home team's performance in the first half. They were losing 0-3.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Trần Minh Phượng made a kick off. Dương Van Tai Em was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 51st minute. Garu FC's manager could be seen on the sidelines shaking his head and muttering to himself as his team had just wasted another chance. In the 52nd minute, Garu FC's Trần Minh Phượng ran free of his marker and smoothly shot the ball into the goal behind Lê Bay. Lê Bay yelled at his defense, as they had left him out to dry. 0-4. With a little luck, Ca Mau's Lê Bay got control of the ball when Dương Van Tai Em tried to sneak it across the goal line.
