HCM City — Defending champions HCM City 1 defeated Phong Phu Ha Nam 2-1 in the second leg of the National Women’s Football Championship on Thursday.

The game was held at Thong Nhat Statium in HCM City.

Thanks to the victory, HCM City 1 have climbed to second place in the table with 18 points after nine matches, while Ha Nam have dropped to fourth with 16 points.

Heavy rain hampered HCM City 1’s attacking ambitions, but they still managed to grab the opener from the penalty spot in the sixth minute through striker Huynh Nhu.

As the rain died down, the game opened up, and Tuyet Dung and Nhu both had chances to increase HCM City’s lead, and it wasn’t until the stroke of half time that My Anh landed what turned out to be the killer blow with a shot from the left wing.

After the break, the visiting side fought back strongly, and Pham Thi Tuoi headed to narrow the gap for Ha Nam in the 76th minute.

In Thursday’s other game, Ha Noi defeated HCM City 2 2-0 to top the rankings with 20 points. — VNS
