Hanoi University of Physical Education and Sports won the SV Cup 2023

After dramatic matches in the group stage and thrilling moments in the knockout round, Hanoi University of Physical Education and Sports and Ho Chi Minh City University of Agriculture and Forestry have successfully entered the final of SV Cup 2023.

Two teams representing two regions, two completely opposite playing styles are the perfect opening for a beautiful ending of the 2023 National Men's Student Football Championship.

Hanoi University of Physical Education and Sports, with its established class in student football, entered the final with a beautiful, effective attacking style and 5 wins in a row.

The 2023 SV Cup final will take place at Nha Trang University Stadium.

On the other side, the road to the final match of Ho Chi Minh City University of Agriculture and Forestry was more difficult. They had to wait until the last round of the group stage to win the right to continue and then 2 nerve-wracking penalty shootouts in the quarter-finals and semi-finals. They had incredible discipline combined with a scientific and tight defensive style.

Nha Trang University Stadium turned into a real fire pit with the presence of thousands of fans. The cheers in the stands combined with the spirit of dedication of the players on the field created an unforgettable experience.

As expected, both teams played their familiar style of play right from the opening whistle. Hanoi University of Physical Education and Sports was the team that controlled the ball more, mainly breaking through from the two wings. However, Ho Chi Minh City University of Agriculture and Forestry still stood firm against the attacks of the Northern representative. The first half ended without any goals scored.

The turning point of the match came right at the beginning of the second half. In the 46th minute, from a central combination, the diagonal shot with the toe of number 9 Duong Tat Thanh, although not strong, was dangerous enough to defeat the captain goalkeeper Le Minh Chien of Ho Chi Minh City University of Agriculture and Forestry.

After conceding the goal, Nong Lam University decided to push forward with 2 substitutions in attack. At this time, Hanoi University of Physical Education and Sports showed that they not only attacked well but also defended extremely well. All the attacks of Ho Chi Minh City University of Nong Lam were easily neutralized.

When the final match was only a matter of seconds, from a free kick in the middle of the field, a player from Ho Chi Minh City University of Agriculture and Forestry jumped high to head the ball. If it weren't for the amazing reflexes of goalkeeper Hoang Tuan Nghia, who knows what would have happened. The match ended with a score of 1-0, Hanoi University of Physical Education and Sports officially won the championship of SV Cup 2023.

Thus, the boys of Hanoi University of Physical Education and Sports have completed a beautiful ending to the unfinished story where they fell in the very last match of last year's season.
