The penalty was reduced because the serious mistake of referee Ha Anh Chien in the penalty situation was unacceptable. During the match, coach Ngo Quang Truong was also dismissed by referee Ha Anh Chien. This referee was also suspended for 4 matches for the above mistake since the 10th round of V.League 2016.

Coach Ngo Quang Truong shared after the match that he knew he was wrong but had to do it because he wanted everyone to see SLNA's indignation. SLNA's head coach was also willing to accept the penalty to condemn the referees' impartiality.

In round 9 of V.League 2016, the Hang Day Stadium Organizing Committee was also fined 15 million VND for allowing fans to light flares during the match where Hanoi T&T beat Hai Phong 2-1 on the afternoon of May 8.
