(NLDO) - The 3-0 victory of CAHN Club had an unexpected and confusing situation when the CAHN assistant ran off the field and coach Polking received a yellow card "out of nowhere".

On the evening of August 24, CAHN Club will visit Becamex TP HCM Club's home field in the final match of round 2 of V-League 2025-2026.

Assistant Thanh Luong in turn...

and a foreign assistant was assigned by coach Polking to find assistant Viegas at the request of the main referee, but all were unsuccessful.

After nearly 5 minutes of interruption in the match, according to the rules, referee Vu Linh could not show a card to a player who was not on the field, so he had to show a yellow card to warn Coach Polking and received a bow from Coach CAHN.

After the above situation, Kizito Trung Hieu had a dirty play, receiving a second yellow card - an indirect red card that caused the home team to play with one less player.

In the press conference after the match, Coach Polking talked about his yellow card: "I am a very sincere person, I was there in that situation, my response to the referee was to let the match continue. The yellow card for the assistant coach was unjust, he did not react at all. I did not defend my staff, I just spoke sincerely. Apart from the yellow card situation, instead of giving me a yellow card, the referee did a good job, controlled and directed the match well."
