The football cup was held in FPT Mini Stadium on 8 January 2015 to mark the arrival of the Lunar New Year.

The tournament saw three strong teams from the Administration Department (FC HCNS), Film Editing Department (FC Ky Thuat), and Artists’ Department (FC Hoa Sy) play a round robin format to determine the winner.

The game took place in the spirit of fair play; the players played beautifully and dedicated to the audience breathless moments of awe and joy. Three matches with 18 goals were indeed a feast for the eyes.

FC HCNS continued their scoring spree as captain Tran Quang Kien shot from side into the opponent’s net ten minutes later. With a 2-0 lead, FC HCNS was on to what seemed to be a convincing win.
