Right in the first half, Hanoi Police Club excellently punished the mistakes of The Cong - Viettel's defense to quickly resolve the match.
In the 13th minute, from a corner kick by Nguyen Quang Hai, center-back Hugo Gomes jumped high and powerfully headed the ball to open the scoring for Cong An Ha Noi Club. In this play, The Cong - Viettel's defense did not do a good job of marking the ball.
Five minutes later, in the 18th minute, defender Nguyen Minh Tung of The Cong - Viettel made a mistake when developing the ball at home, creating conditions for Cong An Ha Noi Club to steal the ball and counterattack. The ball came to Alan Alexandre's feet and this striker passed the ball to Quang Hai who curled the ball in one touch to increase the score to 2-0 for Cong An Ha Noi Club.
In a moment of distraction with a 2-goal lead, Hanoi Police Club let The Cong - Viettel score a goal to shorten the score to 1-2 in the 37th minute. During the throw-in, Khuat Van Khang crossed for Nguyen Huu Thang to tap the ball close to the goal, opening up hope for the army team.

However, when the attack had not yet stabilized the game, the defense of The Cong - Viettel once again had to pay the price. In the 40th minute, Alan received a long pass and then comfortably volleyed the ball so hard that goalkeeper Pham Van Phong flew helplessly, raising the score to 3-1 for Cong An Ha Noi Club.
The person marking Alan in this situation was Minh Tung, the weakest link in the defense of the army team in this match.
However, it was not until the middle of the second half that head coach Velizar Popov decided to take Minh Tung off. He brought in personnel such as Le Quoc Nhat Nam, Nguyen Hong Phuc or Amarildo but could not change the situation.
Losing 1-3 on aggregate, The Cong - Viettel had their 5th consecutive empty-handed season since winning the V-League 2020. Hanoi Police Club has the opportunity to win the National Cup for the first time when meeting Song Lam Nghe An in the final on June 29. The champion team of this arena will have a ticket to the AFC Champions League Two next season.
