On the afternoon of November 23, VPF announced an incident before the match at Lach Tray Stadium. The cause was a problem with the power grid at the stadium. The match was postponed for 60 minutes, starting at 7pm instead of 6pm.

The incident was announced by the match organizers at 5:20 p.m. The electrical problem in this match is related to the VAR system - Video Assistant Referee. Therefore, the organizers need time to fix it.

If nothing changes, the match will take place at 7:00 p.m., the same time as the other two matches: Ho Chi Minh City Police vs. Ho Chi Minh City Club and Hanoi Police vs. The Cong - Viettel .

In the 1/8 round of the 2025-2026 National Cup, only 3 matches will apply VAR. In addition to the match at Lach Tray Stadium, the other 2 matches with VAR are Song Lam Nghe An losing 2-3 to Da Nang Club on November 16.

The remaining match is between Hanoi Police and The Cong - Viettel on the evening of November 23.

The match at Lach Tray Stadium was officiated by referee Nguyen Ngoc Tung. Mr. Tung has only officiated one match in round 9 of the V-League 2025-2026. FIFA referee Hoang Ngoc Ha sat in the VAR room.

The winner of this match will face either PVF-CAND or Hoang Anh Gia Lai. The match will take place on January 28, 2026, as scheduled by the organizers.
