A dull 0-0 draw played out between the Vietnamese side and Svay Rieng in Wednesday’s Group A fourth-round match at Thanh Hoa Stadium.

Going into the game, Thanh Hoa sought a crucial win to bolster their position within the top two spots of their group and secure a quarterfinal berth.

On the other hand, Svay Rieng harbored hopes of progression, contingent on favorable outcomes in their remaining two group fixtures.

Despite commencing the match with early dominance, Thanh Hoa’s key players, including Luiz Antonio, Doan Ngoc Tan, Nguyen Thai Son, and A Mit, appeared jaded from a congested fixture list, having played four games within a mere 14-day span.

Conversely, Svay Rieng boasted a stronger foreign contingent, fielding four international players from Japan and Brazil, compared to Thanh Hoa’s duo.

The game remained closely contested throughout, with both goalkeepers, Trinh Xuan Hoang of Thanh Hoa and Vireak Dara of Svay Rieng, pulling off at least three vital saves apiece.

Ultimately, the match concluded without a goal, thwarting Thanh Hoa’s aspirations of sealing a quarterfinal spot.

With three matches now completed in Group A of the 2024-25 ASEAN Club Championship, an elite tournament featuring domestic champion clubs from the ASEAN Football Federation, Thailand’s BG Pathum United tops the group with eight points.

Malaysia’s Terengganu closely follows in second place with seven points, narrowly edging out Indonesia’s PSM Makassar on goal difference.

Thanh Hoa occupies fourth place with six points, trailed by Svay Rieng on four points, while Myanmar’s Shan United languishes at the bottom without a single point to their name.

Thanh Hoa anticipates a formidable challenge in their upcoming fixture against PSM Makassar, slated for February 5.
