Ha NoiGoals from Pham Tuan Hai and Denilson from the first half helped Hanoi FC defeat the young SLNA squad 2-0 in round 5 on the evening of December 10, rediscovering the joy of victory in the 12-2023 V-League.
Before the match at Hang Day Stadium on the evening of December 10, Hanoi FC received a lot of good news. Captain Do Hung Dung extended his contract until 12, while foreign soldier Denilson Pereira was registered to play after his suspension from his time at the old club expired. The whole team is also excited thanks to an impressive victory against AFC Champions League defending champion Urawa Red Diamonds.
Meanwhile, SLNA entered this season with a squad of mostly young players born after 2000. When they were guests at Hang Day, coach Phan Nhu Thuat used a squad with an average age of 22,9, of which two Positions born in 2005 are goalkeeper Cao Van Binh and midfielder Le Nguyen Hoang.

The first 20 minutes of the match saw the two teams play tit-for-tat before Hanoi FC gradually dominated with better ball control. The turning point in the match came in the 32nd minute when Nguyen Hoang let the ball touch his hand in the penalty area after poor coordination with his teammates. Referee Hoang Thanh Binh spent four minutes consulting VAR, then directly reviewed the video before awarding the home team a penalty.
On the 11 meter mark, Pham Tuan Hai shot a mid-range shot into the left corner to deceive Cao Van Binh, opening the score in the 37th minute. Three minutes later, the SLNA defense continued to make mistakes by clearing the ball indecisively in front of the penalty area. Joel Tagueu took advantage of the slot to allow Denilson Pereira to escape and easily defeat Van Binh, scoring in his debut match for the capital team.
The striker, born in 1995, played for the Granada youth team in Spain, then played in Brazil, Portugal, and Saudi Arabia. He was registered to replace Herlison Caion but was absent from the last two V-League matches due to his suspension in Brazil.

Leading by two goals, Hanoi FC proactively kicked slowly from the second half, while SLNA relied heavily on the abilities of two foreign players Michael Olaha and Raphael Success. In the 64th minute, Success put the ball into Hanoi FC's net but was not recognized because Olaha was offside before creating the assist.
This 2-0 result helped Hanoi FC have their second win in the 2023-2024 V-League, after defeating Binh Duong 1-0 in round three. Coach Dinh The Nam and his team rose to ninth with six points, one point behind Binh Dinh. SLNA ranked 11th with three points, equal to Khanh Hoa, but with better goal difference (-4 vs -6).
