Minute 46: The second half begins.
The first half ended. The Cong Viettel and Hanoi FC temporarily tied with a score of 0-0.
Minute 41: The match ended in the first half but the two teams could not score an opening goal. The quality of the passes between the two teams needs to be more accurate.

Minute 31: No goal!!! Luck was on Hanoi's side in the recent situation when the goal was saved after Colonna's header and then Pedro also headed in for Van Hoang.

Minute 15: There was no danger after Hai Long's shot from a corner kick by captain Van Quyet.

Minute 2: Right from the first attack, Hai Long passed into the penalty area accurately for Hung Dung to finish quickly. However, luck was not on the Hanoi FC side when the ball unfortunately hit the crossbar.
19:19: The match begins.
Lineup
Pre-match information
The focus of the 2025-2026 National Cup qualifiers is the match between The Cong Viettel and Hanoi FC at Hang Day Stadium.
The Cong Viettel is one of the teams with the most stable start after the first 3 rounds of V.League 2025-2026. After the summer transfer window, they added many new quality players such as Kyle Colonna, Lucao, Damian Vu Thanh An and Dinh Viet Tu. Everyone is integrating quickly and thickening the strength of the squad.
Under the leadership of coach Velizar Popov, The Cong Viettel has also clearly changed tactically. The old frame including Bui Tien Dung, Phan Tuan Tai, Truong Tien Anh, Khuat Van Khang and Wesley Nata continued to maintain their form, helping the team fly high.
After the draw against Hanoi Police, they defeated Ho Chi Minh City Police and Becamex Ho Chi Minh City in turn, thereby aiming for the match against Hanoi FC in the National Cup with great confidence.
Meanwhile, Hanoi FC had their worst start in many years. After 3 matches, the capital team has not known the taste of victory, losing to Ho Chi Minh City Police, drawing with Hoang Anh Gia Lai and losing to Hanoi Police.
The great pressure is on coach Makoto Teguramori's shoulders. Therefore, the upcoming match against The Cong Viettel will be an important test, not only in terms of expertise but also the last chance for him to save his "seat".
