“If we lose this match, the championship race is over. The match is very important and we have to win. Our role is to keep the championship race. This victory gives Hanoi FC a chance.

CAHN played well in this match. After Xuan Manh received a red card, we did our best to control the match. When we were short-handed, we did well in defense, had counter-attack opportunities and scored goals. Without Xuan Manh, other players filled the gap,” said coach Makoto Teguramori.

On May 28, the Southeast Asian All-Stars team had a friendly match with MU Club in Malaysia. Coach Makoto Teguramori told his two students Duy Manh and Hai Long: "Vietnam has 4 players participating, of which Hanoi FC contributed half. This is an opportunity for them to approach world football, hopefully they will learn a lot to help Vietnamese football".

Meanwhile, CAHN coach Polking said: “CAHN were tired after the 120-minute match in the second leg of the ASEAN Club Cup final against Buriram. Not only the players’ physical strength but also their spirit was down. It was a match in which we were very disappointed with the result.

Hanoi FC played with determination and strength, winning in contested situations. After receiving the red card, they switched to a very good defensive counter-attack and scored a goal. Congratulations to Hanoi FC. As for us, we are fully focused on our immediate goal of entering the top 3 of the V-League and the National Cup."
