With home advantage and superior force, Hanoi Police proactively pushed up the squad right after the opening whistle and soon had the opening goal in the 7th minute. From Nguyen Quang Hai's assist, Stefan Mauk finished accurately to put the home team ahead.
In the 24th minute, it was still Stefan Mauk who doubled the score for Hanoi Police after a favorable combination with Leo Artur, helping the police team completely control the game.
Dinh Bac began to leave his mark in the 30th minute. Taking advantage of goalkeeper Nguyen Van Toan's mistake in a situation where he rushed out to clear the ball unsuccessfully, the striker born in 2004 easily scored into the empty net, increasing the score to 3-0 for the home team before the first half ended.
Stepping into the second half, Da Nang tried to push up the squad to find an equalizer and narrowed the score to 1-3 in the 48th minute thanks to Van Son's header after a corner kick.
However, all hopes of the away team were quickly dashed. In the 70th minute, from a quick counter-attack after a mistake in the midfield area of Da Nang, Leo Artur made a favorable assist for Dinh Bac to rush down and finish coldly, completing a personal double.
In the 83rd minute, Le Van Do sealed a 5-1 victory for Hanoi Police after a right-wing combination by Leo Artur.
The big victory helps Hanoi Police continue to consolidate their leading position in the rankings, while creating an additional gap with the chasing group in the championship race. Meanwhile, Da Nang continues to face many difficulties in the relegation battle when still in the bottom group of the table.
Notably, the double against Da Nang shows Nguyen Dinh Bac's positive form, thereby bringing optimistic signals to the coaching staff of the Vietnamese team in the upcoming period.
