Not only have they maintained an unbeaten streak since the beginning of the season, but they also make every opponent wary whenever they face them. Experts all acknowledge: It is very difficult to get points against Hanoi Police — and that is no coincidence. From the quality of their squad and their form to their tactical approach, everything is creating a "winning machine" in the red jersey of the police force.
Indeed, Hanoi Police is one of the very few teams in the V.League that possesses a squad of consistently high-quality players across all three lines, from domestic to foreign players.
In defense, center-backs like Bui Hoang Viet Anh, Gomes Hugo, Adou Leygley Minh, and Tran Dinh Trong form an impenetrable wall in front of Nguyen Filip's goal. The two wing-backs, Cao Pendant Quang Vinh, Vu Van Thanh, and Pham Minh Phuc, are not only solid defensively but also provide effective attacking support, creating flexibility in coach Mano Pölking's tactical scheme.
The midfield is home to top Vietnamese midfielders like Nguyen Quang Hai and Le Pham Thanh Long, combined with two quality foreign players, Stefan Mauk and Vitao. They help the police team dominate the midfield, control the ball well, regulate the tempo, and deliver incisive passes that open up the opponent's defense.
In attack, 22 goals in 10 matches is the clearest evidence of Hanoi Police's offensive strength. The trio of Léo Artur, Alan Grafite, and Nguyễn Đình Bắc are currently the most dangerous attacking threats in the V.League.

This season, the two matches against Beijing Guoan (China) and Pathum United (Thailand) served as crucial lessons that led to significant changes for Hanoi Police. Despite holding many advantages, the police team still lost points and even suffered a painful defeat against the Thai representative.
Based on those lessons, coach Mano Pölking adjusted the tactics appropriately, helping the team achieve a better balance between attack and defense.
After taking the lead, Hanoi Police switched tactics very flexibly: from relentless attacking to solid ball control. They didn't press recklessly but instead deliberately slowed down the pace, regulating the game, forcing their opponents to move more and gradually fall into a passive position.
When their opponents started to show weaknesses due to fatigue, Hanoi Police immediately launched sharp counter-attacks to "finish off" the match. This style of play clearly demonstrates pragmatism, effectiveness, and strategic thinking. It not only helps the team win beautifully, but also ensures a secure victory, while conserving energy for the final stages of the season.
