On the afternoon of August 25, the Disciplinary Board of the Vietnam Football Federation (VFF) issued a decision to fine assistant coach Luis Viegas of the Hanoi Police Club, after the incident that occurred in the match against Becamex HCMC at Binh Duong Stadium on the evening of August 24.
Accordingly, Mr. Luis Viegas was fined 5 million VND and suspended from duty for the next 2 matches, based on Article 58 of the VFF Disciplinary Regulations. This is a form of handling after this assistant overreacted with the referee in the match.
The situation happened in the first half, when referee Le Vu Linh gave a yellow card to warn Mr. Luis Viegas. However, the assistant continued to react and quickly ran into the tunnel to avoid receiving a red card.

The referee asked him to return to the field to receive a second yellow card, but he did not comply. For the match to continue, head coach Mano Polking had to accept a card on behalf of his colleague.
Mr. Luis Viegas's behavior caused a lot of controversy, forcing the Organizing Committee to send a report to VFF for disciplinary consideration. After the meeting, the Disciplinary Board issued an official penalty to ensure the strictness of the tournament.
In this match, Hanoi Police won 3-0 against Becamex HCMC. After the incident, coach Mano Polking affirmed that reacting to the referee was not a "war" of the team.
