Yangon United and Dagon Star United played to a thrilling 0-0 draw this evening at 3:30 PM at Yangon United Sports Complex.

Both teams showed commendable determination throughout the match, with several key opportunities arising for Yangon United. Yan Naing Oo, Oakkar Naing, and Wai Lin Aung all had their efforts thwarted by Dagon Star United’s resolute defense. One particularly notable moment saw Zaw Win Thein’s foul ball being redirected by Yan Naing Oo’s header, which narrowly missed the target by going slightly over the goal post.

In the second half, Yangon United made tactical adjustments by bringing on Kaung Sithu and Ye Lin Htet to replace La Min Htwe and Wai Lin Aung. Despite these changes, Yangon United struggled to find the back of the net. The team had several promising chances from corner kicks, with Kyaw Phyo Wai and Yan Naing Oo both coming close but ultimately failing to convert. Yangon United’s defense, led by a strong performance from their goalkeeper and defenders, managed to keep a clean sheet despite intense pressure from Dagon Star United. The match ended in a goalless draw, leaving both teams sharing the points.

Head Coach U Kyaw Dunn expressed his disappointment, stating, “We were not dutiful to our fans. It was a difficult game, but we will address our mistakes and work to improve for the next match.”

With this result, Yangon United has accumulated 24 points from 10 matches, with 7 wins and 3 draws. Their next challenge will be against Thitsar Arman on September 21st at Thuwunna Stadium.
