The two teams started the game in a cautious manner. U23Jordan failed to score any goal due excellent performance by the Vietnamesedefence, especially goalie Bui Tien Dung.

In the last 10 minutes of the match, U23 Vietnamintensified the pressure, but Tien Linh, Duc Chinh and Quang Hai failed toscore any goal although they had chances.

With this result, U23 Vietnam got only 2 points after two draws without goals,and the team will face disadvantages in the race to win tickets to thequarterfinals.

U23 Jordan currently has four points like U23 UAE in the group, but temporarilybehind because of the different number of goals.
