In particular, player Van Huy kicked the ball very hard towards the home team's cabin and received his second yellow card of the match and had to leave the field. The VFF Disciplinary Board considered that the referee's punishment was the right person and the right crime, so no additional punishment was imposed.

If you look closely at the situation, this is a very clear retaliation, which could even cause injury to the opponent, with Cong Phuong attempting to kick straight at Tong Anh Ty, even though this player was already lying on the ground.

If Van Hau returns to Hanoi FC
A statistic that shows the importance of Doan Van Hau is that last season, Hanoi FC was undefeated at Hang Day Stadium when the 21-year-old defender was in the squad. It is easy to see the great difficulties of Hanoi FC in recent matches, when they did not have a foreign player in the defense like other teams.
As a result, Hanoi FC faced many disadvantages in the contested situations on their home field. In addition, the injuries of Duy Manh and Dinh Trong made Hanoi even more miserable.
