On the evening of September 18, Hanoi Police Club held Beijing Guoan to a 2-2 draw in the opening match of the AFC Champions League Two 2025-2026 away.
In addition to the dramatic score chase, the match also witnessed scoring situations between players from both sides.
Typically, in the 80th minute, although the camera camera angles of the TV did not record the moment of the collision between the two sides, Chinese fans shared many of these scratchful videos on TikTok and Weibo platforms.
Accordingly, in a dead ball on the left wing, Rogerio Alves of Hanoi Police and He Yupeng collided strongly after the home team's defender showed signs of deliberately moving from the sidelines into the field to prevent the away team's attack. Immediately after that, the two sides exchanged words.
The incident became more serious when Alan Sebastiao (Hanoi Police) was accused of using his hand to drag He Yupeng off the sidelines, leading to a strong reaction from Beijing Guoan players.
Then, it was Cao Quang Vinh's turn to pull an opposing player out, causing chaos. Many other players of Hanoi Police such as Stefan Mauk, Viet Anh, Rogerio Alves had to intervene to prevent the incident from escalating.
In the stands, Beijing Guoan fans continuously threw strange objects onto the stadium. A bottle of water flew over the head of the home team's medical staff and then hit Le Pham Thanh Long in the face.
Because the match did not have VAR, referee Wiwat Jumpaoon (Thailand) had to make his own decision. He gave 4 yellow cards to Quang Vinh, Stefan Mauk (Hanoi Police) and Wu Shaocong, Wang Ziming (Beijing Guoan).
The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) is likely to impose a penalty on both teams for uncontrolled behavior. At the same time, the stadium organizers may also be punished for not ensuring security, allowing spectators to throw objects onto the stadium, causing danger.
