Right after the opening whistle, the Manchester Reds showed the class and experience of former Premier League players when they quickly took the lead. Souza opened the scoring with a neat move in the penalty area. Just a few minutes later, Marc Fuller doubled the gap with an easy shot but goalkeeper Duong Hong Son made a mistake because the pitch was slippery and wet.
Not accepting being behind, the Vietnamese All Stars players pressed forward to attack. In the 21st minute, from a delicate pass from Le Huynh Duc, Van Quyet broke the offside trap, dribbled past the opposing goalkeeper before gently finishing into the empty net, narrowing the score to 1-2.
Not long after, Van Quyen spoke up at the right time. After Van Quyet was fouled in the penalty area, Van Quyen easily fooled the goalkeeper, bringing the match back to the starting line with a score of 2-2 before the break.

In the second half, heavy rain continued to pour down on Hang Day Stadium, significantly affecting the quality of the pitch but could not stop the enthusiasm of the red-shirt players. In the 64th minute, Van Quyet took advantage of a serious mistake by Manchester Red goalkeeper Aziaya.
The cross-goal kick accidentally became a "gift" for the Hanoi FC captain to easily score into an empty net, completing his own double and sealing a 3-2 victory for the home team.
In the final minutes, Vietnam All Stars created more dangerous situations, with Van Quyet's strong mark when he continuously coordinated well with seniors such as Van Quyen and Huynh Duc. Although no more goals were scored, the 3-2 victory was enough for the Hang Day audience to leave with complete joy, concluding a friendly match full of nostalgia but also full of emotions.
On June 27, the first leg friendly match between Manchester Red and Vietnam All Stars took place at Hoa Xuan Stadium, Da Nang with a 4-2 victory for the away team.
