Hanoi FC Returns to Championship Race After Big Win Over SLNA

(Football Result) - Hanoi maintains its impressive winning momentum with a 3-0 victory over SLNA in V-League Round 15.

The match between Hanoi FC and SLNA started with dominance from the home team. From the early minutes, Hanoi controlled the ball and continuously pressured the opponent. In the 12th minute, Hai Long scored after a scramble in the box, but VAR disallowed the goal due to a foul by Fisher beforehand. Nevertheless, Hanoi created many chances, with Hoang Hen twice making dangerous shots but unable to beat goalkeeper Cao Van Binh. The first half ended 0-0.

In the second half, Hanoi continued the pressure. In the 53rd minute, Hoang Hen again made the fans sigh as his diagonal shot went narrowly wide of the post. However, the turning point came in the 68th minute when Hoang Hen delivered a precise left-footed cross, allowing Fisher to coolly head home and open the scoring for Hanoi FC.

After conceding, SLNA had to push forward, which exposed gaps in their defense. In the 72nd minute, Hai Long made an impressive solo run, dribbling straight through the center, bypassing two SLNA defenders before finishing cleverly in a one-on-one with the goalkeeper, doubling the lead for the Capital team.

In the 89th minute, Hai Long earned a penalty after being fouled in the box. From the 11-meter spot, Van Quyet easily beat Cao Van Binh to seal a 3-0 victory for Hanoi FC over SLNA.

Notable Information Before the Hanoi vs SLNA Match:

The match between Hanoi FC (24 points) and Song Lam Nghe An (19 points) in this round is predicted to be very exciting. The 2-1 win in the "Capital derby" against Cong An Hanoi FC demonstrated Hanoi FC's formidable strength. Under coach Harry Kewell's guidance, the Capital team possesses a squad with high professional quality and many experienced players. As key players regain their best form, Hanoi FC can fully become a strong contender for a top 3 position when the season ends.

However, Song Lam Nghe An is certainly not an opponent easily subdued. The Nghe team is led by the charismatic coach Van Sy Son, who has worked with and understands many Hanoi FC players quite well. This partly helps SLNA have more basis to build suitable tactics when facing the Hang Day Stadium host.

SLNA's recent form is also quite impressive. The 1-0 win over Hai Phong FC in the previous round helped the Nghe team achieve its first three consecutive wins streak this season. Earlier, they successively overcame The Cong Viettel and Hong Linh Ha Tinh. This positive streak helps SLNA escape the bottom group and temporarily rise to 8th place, creating significant confidence before this difficult away trip.

Nevertheless, head-to-head history still favors Hanoi FC. In the first leg on January 31 at Vinh Stadium, SLNA lost 1-3 to the Capital representative. Therefore, despite showing signs of improved form, Coach Van Sy Son's team still faces many challenges. In the context of being away against an opponent considered their "nemesis," a draw result might be a realistic target and could also be seen as a success for SLNA in this match.
