Nguyen Hoang Duc is injured

In the 58th minute, Hoang Duc was leading the ball when Van Toan rushed to the dispute and kicked hard on his shin. The collision caused the Vietnamese midfielder to seek the care of doctors. He then left the field and sat in the technical area with his leg bandaged.

After the match, coach Thach Bao Khanh confirmed: "Hoang Duc was seriously injured, but we have to check carefully to determine the details".

He also revealed that Geovane Magno - who had to leave the field in the 13th minute after colliding with CAHN defender Elton Monteiro - also needed to be taken to the hospital for examination. This is the first official match of the Brazilian striker after recovering from injury.

In the situation that led to Hoang Duc's injury, even though he entered the ball dangerously, Van Toan only received a yellow card. When asked about the referee's decision, coach Thach Bao Khanh said: "That situation was in the middle of the field and I stood too far away, and I have not reviewed the behavior of the ball. I think the referee stood closer than me to make a decision. more correct".

Despite the loss of force, Viettel still won CAHN 2-1 thanks to the goals of Bui Tien Dung in the 15th minute and Nguyen Duc Chien in the 63rd minute. The only goal of CAHN was scored by... Bui Tien Dung himself. According to coach Thach Bao Khanh, scoring an own goal in a match can happen to every player. He commented that the Viettel captain did not feel the pressure and stood facing the goal, so that phase of the ball happened.

For coach Thach Bao Khanh, this match has a lot of meaning when leading a team to win in the V-League for the first time. At the same time, he is also a rare character to attend the capital derby as both a player (under The Cong) and a coach.

This victory helped Viettel rise to sixth place with five points and an unbeaten record. Meanwhile, CAHN ranked seventh with three points after their second consecutive loss.
