A week ago, Hanoi Police let Buriram United hold them to a 2-2 draw. The Vietnamese representative had home field advantage and took the lead twice but could not maintain the victory.

That match exposed many problems of Hanoi Police, including physical strength. Coach Mano Polking's team appeared exhausted and that was the reason why they conceded a goal in the second half.

However, Buriram also showed their bravery and class. Under the pressure from thousands of fans in the stands of Hang Day Stadium, the Thai team did not show any signs of wavering.

Theerathon Bunmathan still showed his "weirdness" with his handling of situations. Above, Crispim, Bissoli and Peter Zulj played effectively, knowing how to take advantage of opportunities at the right time.

And it is also worth remembering that in that match, Buriram United only had 6 substitutes, one of whom was a goalkeeper. This made them look even more dangerous when they returned to Chang Arena in the second leg of the Shopee Cup final.

Overall, whichever team wins the championship deserves to be called the "king of Southeast Asia". The match to decide the title between Hanoi Police and Buriram United will take place at 7:30 p.m. today, May 21.
