Not long before this match, Hanoi FC had a change in the coaching bench when coach Hoang Van Phuc was invited back to lead the team to replace coach Le Duc Tuan who moved to Da Nang FC. Hanoi FC's leaders hoped that Mr. Phuc would help revive the team after two important defeats (against Dong Thap FC in the round of 16 of the National Cup and HAGL in the round of 12 of the V-League). However, due to the individual mistakes of his players on the field, Mr. Phuc could not help Hanoi FC change their fortunes.
Tuan Hai's red card caused Hanoi FC to lose the match against Nam Dinh.
In the match, Hanoi FC played better than the home team Nam Dinh when they continuously threatened goalkeeper Nguyen Manh's goal. However, their finishing moves were not accurate. In a pressing situation, Hong Duy made a mistake in clearing the ball, leading to the home team receiving a penalty in the 42nd minute. Hanoi FC's new player Luka Bobičanec did not miss the opportunity from the 11m mark to open the score for the capital team. However, just 3 minutes later, the turning point of the match occurred when striker Pham Tuan Hai fouled Hong Duy and received a red card. This pushed the away team into a difficult defense in the second half.

What had to happen happened when in the 59th minute, Caio Cesar was given an open opportunity by Hendrio in the 16m50 box to unleash a powerful shot to equalize for the home team. After this goal, Nam Dinh players continued to put pressure thanks to their advantage of having more players and in the 84th minute, Hendrio himself broke free and unleashed a diagonal shot past goalkeeper Quan Van Chuan to seal a 2-1 victory for the team from Thanh Nam.
Despite the victory, it can be seen that Nam Dinh's playing style is still unstable without Xuan Son. The ball was almost passed to Hendrio but he could not make a difference in the first half because he was tightly locked by Hanoi FC players. It can be said that besides the two brilliant plays that brought victory to the home team, the Brazilian player who is applying for Vietnamese citizenship played below his ability. Similar to Hendrio, domestic players such as Hong Duy, Tuan Anh, Van Kien... were also not in good form, causing Nam Dinh FC's playing style to be quite erratic. If Hanoi FC had not lost a player at the end of the first half, it is unknown what would have happened.
It is strange that although Hong Duy did not play really well on the left wing, coach Vu Hong Viet of Nam Dinh Club did not put Nguyen Van Vi, who played very well for the Vietnamese team at the AFF Cup 2024, on the field early, but only put him in the second half. Van Vi's presence on the field made Nam Dinh's attacks more dangerous and helped the home team put pressure to score the winning goal at the end of the second half.
With this result, Nam Dinh Club temporarily climbed to the top of the table with 24 points, while Hanoi Club remained in 5th place with 17 points.
Thanh Hoa Club in a difficult situation
Last night, February 5, Thanh Hoa Club lost to the home team PSM Makassar (Indonesia) with a score of 0-3 in the qualifying round of Group A of the ASEAN Club Championship 2024 - 2025. With this result, the Thanh Hoa team dropped to 5th place on the rankings and will have a hard time competing for a ticket to the semi-finals.
