Hanoi Police and Viettel The Cong both possess top-class attacking lines in the V-League. Both teams are considered by experts to be contenders for the championship this season. Therefore, the "capital derby" between the two teams is a feast for the eyes.
The Cong Viettel (white shirt) opened the score of the match
As the home team, the Police team quickly invaded the opponent's field, controlled the ball and took the initiative to attack. However, Quang Hai and his teammates had to concede the first goal because they fell into the sharp counter-attacking trap set by Viettel's The Cong.
In the 3rd minute, Truong Tien Anh crossed the ball accurately from the right wing, tearing apart the Hanoi Police defense, creating an opportunity for his teammate Lucao to jump high and head the ball into the net of goalkeeper Nguyen Filip. The early opening goal also caused the situation and speed of the match to change rapidly.
Coach Polking's team overwhelmed the visitors, pressuring The Cong Viettel with small passing moves, attacking quickly and diversely from the middle in search of an equalizer. In the 22nd minute, Dinh Trong advanced to support the attack on the right flank, passing the ball right to Alan's feet and helping this foreign player score an equalizer for the home team.
Hanoi Police regained a valuable point at home
The tug of war continued throughout the remainder of the match, with both teams continuing to create an attractive and professional "tit for tat" attack. Players from both sides had opportunities to score the decisive goal in the second half, but the defense on both sides of the goal had a sublime day, preserving the final score.
A 1-1 draw after the "capital derby" was an acceptable result on the opening day of the 2025-2026 V-League between Hanoi Police and Viettel's The Cong. The impressive performance of the two teams also raised the status of both teams as candidates for the domestic championship.
