The reason Arsenal's match in the 27th round of the English Premier League on February 23rd ( Hanoi time) was interrupted twice was due to a "communication system error" involving the refereeing team.
SunSport reported that in the first half, the match had to be temporarily halted after the referees' communication system experienced a technical malfunction.
This incident caused a five-minute interruption to the match, much to the bewilderment of both the players and the fans at Tottenham's home stadium.

The troubles didn't stop there, because when the players were ready to return to the field for the second half, with the score tied 1-1, the match was delayed again.
The reason remains a communication malfunction by the refereeing team, forcing players from both teams to return for a second warm-up.
Having to "restart mid-match" completely disrupts the rhythm of the game and significantly impacts the players' physical and mental condition.
Spectators in the stadium also expressed frustration at not receiving any clear announcements while waiting.
Commentator Gary Neville couldn't hide his frustration at this unusual situation. "It's terrible. This is one of the most important matches of the season and it's being interrupted like this," the former Manchester United defender bluntly criticized.
"It's ridiculous. We have to wait, the players have to warm up again. It's a real mess. What do the 62,000 spectators in the stadium and millions watching on television think about this?" he continued angrily. "They might be relaxing, but I'm absolutely furious. I can't believe this match was interrupted twice."
Returning to the second half after about 2-3 minutes to fix the "technological antics," the visiting team Arsenal played explosively, scoring three more goals to seal a 4-1 victory.
Midfielder Eberechi Eze and striker Viktor Gyokeres both scored braces for Arsenal, while forward Randal Kolo Muani scored a consolation goal for Tottenham.
The result of the North London derby helped Arsenal maintain a 5-point lead over chasing team Man City, although they have played one more game than their rivals.
Arsenal's victory will undoubtedly send shivers down the spines of Pep Guardiola's team, as the Premier League has entered a crucial stage where the championship will be decided.
