In the 90+7 minute, when the score was still 0-0, Hai Long from Hanoi performed a skillful dribble, passing 2-3 home players before entering the penalty area and crossing for center-back Thanh Chung to finish close to the goal. The ball went straight into the net, but the goal was not recognized as the referee waited for VAR to intervene.

This situation made the atmosphere on the field tense. HAGL's Technical Director Vu Tien Thanh reacted on the sidelines. The referee immediately issued a warning card. The tension only subsided when VAR determined that Thanh Chung was offside before scoring, helping HAGL narrowly escape defeat.

In fact, the away match against Hanoi was a huge challenge for HAGL as the team from the mountain town was rated lower in both experience and squad quality. Young goalkeeper Trung Kien became the biggest highlight with a series of excellent saves, denying the home team at least 10 clear scoring opportunities.

Despite having to defend hard for the entire 90 minutes, HAGL still showed their resilience. The match ended in a 0-0 draw, and the team from the mountain town left Hang Day Stadium with a valuable point.
