On the home team side, coach Mano Polking said that in the upcoming important match, Hanoi Police will not have the services of three key players Quang Hai, Viet Anh and Adou Minh due to injury. However, Mr. Polking expressed his confidence in the replacement players.
“I thank the club’s management for building a deep squad. The new players will be given opportunities and I believe they will perform well. After an unsatisfactory opening match, the whole team is determined to win all 3 points against Cebu. This is a pivotal match if we want to go far in the tournament,” said the head coach of Hanoi Police.
Regarding comments related to goalkeeper Nguyen Filip, Mr. Polking affirmed: “He is still the number one goalkeeper at the club and is in the top of the national team. Any mistakes are normal in football. I have given my opinion and Nguyen Filip is focusing fully again.”
Looking at it objectively, coach Polking admitted that the team had moments of losing concentration in recent matches, leading to unfortunate goals. The whole team is trying to improve their ability to maintain concentration as well as improve their efficiency in finishing.
“I am always excited to participate in international tournaments. Matches like this help players gain valuable experience. Everything they have experienced is a preparation for the journey ahead,” coach Polking affirmed.

Speaking at a press conference, Dynamic Herb Cebu head coach Glenn Ramos appreciated the quality of the home team's squad, but affirmed that his team had prepared thoroughly and aimed to win all three points.
“I am very excited to return to Vietnam to face a strong team like Hanoi Police. We respect our opponents but are ready to win,” Mr. Ramos emphasized.
The Filipino strategist said he highly appreciated the opponents in Group A, especially the two representatives of Thailand (Buriram United, Pathum United) and Hanoi Police. He also praised striker Alan - a foreign player who is playing outstandingly for the capital team.
“I watched the most recent match between Hanoi Police and Beijing Guoan at the AFC Cup. They have a well-balanced squad, with many quality foreign players. Alan is a dangerous striker, and we need to pay special attention. But we came here to face the strongest team in the V-League at the moment, with serious preparation and a spirit of victory,” coach Ramos affirmed.
Also attending the press conference, River Leddel player said that the team had carefully analyzed the playing style of Hanoi Police, especially the foreign players. “We respect our opponents but will fight with the highest spirit of solidarity. The goal is to win to create an advantage in the race to the semi-finals,” this player shared.
According to the schedule, the match between Hanoi Police and Dynamic Herb Cebu will take place at 7:30 p.m. on September 24 at Hang Day Stadium, within the framework of the second round of Group A of the Southeast Asian Club Championship - Shopee Cup 2025/26.
The match is expected to be dramatic, with both teams determined to win in order to gain an advantage in the race for a ticket to the semi-finals.
