In the match of round 3 of Group E AFC Champions League Two 2025 - 2026, Hanoi Police Club took the field with a very strong lineup when welcoming Macarthur FC at home. With Quang Vinh, Quang Hai, Alan, Vitao, Mauk, the police team confidently played offensively from the first minutes of the match.

However, Macarthur also showed that they are not easy to play with, pushing up their formation to press the home team and causing some difficulties for Quang Hai and his teammates. The midfield area became a hot spot in the first half hour, where the two teams played a tug-of-war and tried to impose their game on the other side.

It was not until the 30th minute that Hanoi Police FC broke the deadlock after successfully taking advantage of a mistake by Macarthur's defense. After the away team's defenders failed to clear the ball, Le Van Do quickly ran down to shoot the ball into the far corner, putting the home team ahead 1-0.

With the lead, Hanoi Police Club proactively gave up the game to Macarthur in the second half.

In the 72nd minute, head coach Alexandre Polking suddenly withdrew goalkeeper Nguyen Filip to replace him with young goalkeeper Vu Thanh Vinh. Just 6 minutes later, Cong An Ha Noi Club paid the price. In the 77th minute, Tomislav Uskok headed the ball to equalize 1-1 for Macarthur.

In the remaining minutes, Hanoi Police Club, despite sending Phan Van Duc onto the field, still could not find a goal. The home team was helpless as their opponents shared the points with a 1-1 draw.

With this draw, Hanoi Police Club still tops Group E AFC Champions League Two 2025 - 2026 with 5 points.
