Hanoi police lose the top of V-League 2023

* Score: Viet Hung 12', Tuan Anh 90'+4

In the early match in the third round of phase II, Thanh Hoa defeated Binh Dinh, and Hanoi beat Nam Dinh to climb to the top of the table. That requires CAHN to win Hai Phong, if they want to regain the position they have occupied for most of this season.

The home team had an exciting start with two consecutive close-in opportunities belonging to Jhon Cley and Gustavo Henrique but both missed. Meanwhile, Hai Phong scored at the first opportunity in the 12th minute. From the right pass of Huu Son, Yuri Almeida controlled the error but created an assist for Trieu Viet Hung to finish close to the wall to beat Filip Nguyen. .

After that, Hai Phong created two more chances, but Yuri Almeida headed off the post, and the home team was stuck in attack. It was not until the second half that CAHN played better.

In the 51st minute, Jhon Cley poked a slot for Gustavo Henrique to pull down his heel for Raphael Success to sink, but hit the post. In the 78th minute, Van Thanh put the ball into Hai Phong's net, but before that, Gustavo Henrique made an offside error when he headed home, causing Dinh Trieu to block. Doan Van Hau also had a chance but headed off the post after the corner.

In the 85th minute, Doan Van Hau crossed from the left wing for Henrique to enter but did not touch the ball, the ball touched midfielder Van Dat and bounced off. CAHN players demanded a penalty, but the referee Nguyen Dinh Thai did not think that the ball touched the Hai Phong defender's hand.

Attack a lot without scoring, CAHN's goal is constantly in danger from counter-attacks. In the 90th minute, Hai Huy missed in an empty position, but four minutes later he no longer missed. In the face of Filip Nguyen, Hai Huy played as a teammate and passed Xuan Truong to finish, but Giam Tuan Duong used his chest to block the goal line. The ball bounced at the position Tuan Anh chose for the midfielder to finish to set the score 2-0.

This is CAHN's third loss in the last five matches. CAHN ranked first and dropped to third place with 28 points. Hanoi FC and Thanh Hoa have the same 29 points, but the capital team takes the lead thanks to a better goal difference (+9 vs +8).
