On Sunday evening, first matches in the second leg of Viet Nam's top-tier V League 2019 season took place at stadiums across the country on Sunday.

SHB DN and SLNA players

SHB Da Nang played out a goalless away draw against Song Lam Nghe An (SLNA) at the Vinh City-based Stadium.

With their strong determination to earn 3 points by beating SHB DN, SLNA fielded some of their key stars, including newcomer Joel Vinicius, and Nigerian striker Michael Olaha.

However, the visitors took control of the game from the beginning.

In particular, SHB’s midfielders Dang Anh Tuan and Hoang Minh Tam, and newcomer Frizoni Bernardo, well supported strikers Do Merlo, Phan Van Long and Djicka Gassissou Aime to do scores.

In the first minutes of the match, SHB’s Phan Van Long had the opportunity to shoot at goal but, unfortunately, hit the post. In the 32^nd minute, striker Do Merlo also missed a scoring chance due to his inaccurate shot.

In the second half, SHB DN piled on the pressure to try to pull off the win, but they missed several scoring opportunities due to inaccurate shots and loose passing.

Finally, the game ended at 0-0.

The other match results were:

                            Sanna Khanh Hoa 1-3 Thanh Hoa 

                         Hoang Anh Gia Lai 1-2 Quang Nam
