Hanoi Police Club player receives heavy penalty for brutal foul
According to VTC News, Giap Tuan Duong of Hanoi Police Club was suspended for 2 matches and fined 15 million VND for a rough foul. The situation occurred in the match in round 3 of V.League 2024/2025 between Hanoi Police Club and Binh Duong. VFF applied clause 1, article 39 of the disciplinary regulations to impose the penalty.
The most talked about situation in the match between Hanoi Police Club and Binh Duong 1-0 on the evening of September 30th happened in the first half of extra time. Giap Tuan Duong (Hanoi Police) jumped up and stomped both feet straight into the ankle area of a Binh Duong player.

This is a situation where the home team player did not touch the ball at all. The Vietnamese national team player actively jumped up and landed on both feet. At the time of jumping, Giap Tuan Duong was still about 1 meter away from the ball.
However, the referee surprised the audience after carefully watching the video of the incident and consulting the video assistants (VAR). Mr. Le Vu Linh only gave a yellow card to Giap Tuan Duong for this foul. Many Binh Duong players were indignant and confused when Odildzhon was taken down but the opponent was not sent off.
On social media, most fans disagree with Mr. Le Vu Linh's decisions. Even when consulting VAR technology, this referee still made the wrong decision. After the player's penalty, Mr. Linh himself will likely receive an internal disciplinary decision from the Referee Board.

Mbappe miraculously recovers before the match against Lille
Marca reported that Kylian Mbappe's thigh injury suffered in the Real Madrid 3-2 Deportivo Alaves match on September 25 is not as serious as initially feared - he is expected to be out for 3 weeks.
This source said,Mbappe He began rehabilitation of his thigh immediately after his diagnosis and that played a key role in helping him return sooner than expected, bringing good news to coach Carlo Ancelotti.

Mbappe was considered one of the stars of world football after emerging at AS Monaco in 2015. He then joined PSG and amazed fans with a series of excellent performances.
After winning the World Cup with France in 2018, Mbappe has won 17 trophies and scored 294 goals throughout his career so far.
This summer, after many missed appointments, Mbappe arrived at Bernabeu on a free transfer. The French striker is considered an important piece for Los Blancos to build a new empire.
Despite facing difficulties in the early stages of integration, Mbappe quickly showed his influence, contributing to helping Real achieve recent positive results.
Coach Kim Sang-sik is about to have more naturalized players for the Vietnam team.
Hanoi Police Club is promoting naturalization for defender Jason Pendant Quang Vinh. Jason has a French father and a Vietnamese mother. He is eligible to soon obtain Vietnamese nationality in the same way Nguyen Filip did.
Along with that,Vietnam Football Federation(VFF) is particularly interested in Jason Quang Vinh's chance of naturalization. This unit has discussed many times with the Hanoi Police Club to support this player's naturalization as quickly as possible. Of course, the Vietnamese team needs more players with foreign blood in the context of Thailand, Indonesia or Malaysia actively naturalizing.

Coach Kim Sang-sik really needs a new option at left-back and Quang Vinh is a strong candidate. Previously, Doan Van Hau suffered a serious injury and has not played for the past 2 years. Nguyen Phong Hong Duy has declined a lot and has not shown his ability when he joined the Vietnam national team.
Meanwhile, Tuan Tai is a rising young talent but he still lacks experience in international matches. Some other names such as Thai Binh, Minh Trong or Van Xuan have not yet created trust with coach Kim Sang-sik.
In October, the Vietnamese team has two international friendly matches against India and Lebanon./.
