Nguyen Van Quyet was banned from playing for 8 matches
Van Quyet was banned for eight matches and fined 40 million VND. The Disciplinary Committee is based on Clause 2(a) of Article 39 of physically infringing acts, in the VFF Disciplinary Regulations (amended and supplemented in 2023). Specifically, individuals are fined from 30 to 40 million dong and suspended from playing and on duty from five to eight matches in case of repeated violations against one person or many people.
The disciplinary committee fined the Hanoi FC captain's frame because he had violated it in the past. In the V-League 2016, Van Quyet pushed down referee Hoang Pham Cong Khanh in the fourth round Hanoi - Khanh Hoa match. He had to receive a red card directly, then was banned for five matches and removed from the concentrated list of the Vietnamese team.
In the 7th round of V-League 2023, Hanoi FC lost to Binh Dinh 1-3 at Quy Nhon Stadium. After the match, Van Quyet clashed with assistant referee Nguyen Le Nguyen Thanh and had to receive a red card directly from referee Nguyen Manh Hai. The assistant's elbow was pushed into the chest area, leading to difficulty breathing. After that, Van Quyet actively called to apologize to his assistant Nguyen Thanh, and at the same time admitted the error in the media.
With this penalty, Van Quyet had to miss 7 V-League matches and a national Cup match. This is a big loss for Hanoi FC in the championship race when the 32-year-old striker is the team's main goalscorer with six goals from the beginning of the V-League season.
In addition to Van Quyet, the VFF Disciplinary Committee fined four individuals from Binh Phuoc Club for shoving assistant referee Nguyen Van Luu, after being denied a goal in the match against Hoa Binh in the third round of the 2023 First Division.
Coach Le Thanh Xuan was banned for four matches and fined 15 million VND. Players Vu Duc Duy and Tran Tan Tai were suspended for three matches and fined 10 million VND. Technical officer Khong Thanh Tu was banned from duty for five matches and fined 15 million VND.
