Coach of Hanoi Public Security complained about losing the penalty penalty

In the 85th minute, when the score was 1-0 for Hai Phong, Doan Van Hau crossed from the left wing into the Hai Phong area. Goalkeeper Nguyen Dinh Trieu missed and collided with Rafael Success. The ball then lightly hit the flank and passed Nguyen Van Dat's hand. CAHN players reacted strongly, asking for a penalty, but referee Nguyen Dinh Thai waved his hand.

"If there is VAR, we will be penalized in that situation," coach Flavio Cruz said after the loss at Hang Day Stadium on the evening of July 29. "CAHN can end the match with a point, not empty-handed. Having VAR will limit such errors of referees."

This round is the first time VAR is applied in the V-League. However, this technology was only used in the only match Viettel beat Ha Tinh 4-0 on July 27.

This match, CAHN held the ball 61%, launched 13 shots but had no luck. In addition to being denied a penalty, the home team also twice hit the ball into the post and many times hit the opponent's goalkeeper or missed the goal.

On the contrary, Hai Phong opened the scoring with the first shot on target thanks to Trieu Viet Hung in the 12th minute. In the second half of stoppage time, the away team sealed victory with Nguyen Tuan Anh's close-range shot. This result made CAHN miss the opportunity to return to the top of the table. They are currently third with 28 points, one point behind the two leading teams, Hanoi FC and Thanh Hoa.

"Football is tough. We played hard, created a lot of chances but didn't take them. Had we converted our chances early in the game and scored early, the game could have been different," the coach said. Flavio added.

In this match, coach Flavio continued to arrange Nguyen Quang Hai as the main kick. However, the Hanoi rookie played ineffectively and had to make way for Le Van Do in the 76th minute. Before the idea that Quang Hai was in low form, affecting the team, coach Flavio said: "Quang Quang. Hai is a top player, world class, very important to CAHN.This match he played well, with the right tactics.But when the team loses, everything will be bad, some say this or that, pressure for Quang Hai".

This leader also revealed that Quang Hai was under too much pressure to sublimate, so he withdrew to the field and brought Le Van Do into place. Although not back to the top of the table, Flavio thinks that the chance to win the championship is still with CAHN when the tournament has four rounds left.

The next match on August 1, CAHN as a guest of Nam Dinh.
