Center back Bui Hoang Viet Anh collided with a The Cong Viettel player in the 13th round of the V-League and suffered a deep laceration to his lip. The player tried to return to the game after receiving medical attention, but had to leave the field and take an ambulance to the hospital at the end of the first half.

Bui Hoang Viet Anh had to get 24 stitches and needs to rest for a few days for the wound to heal. It is likely that the 1999-born midfielder will not be able to return to play in the match between CAHN Club and The Cong Viettel in the 1/8 round of the National Cup.

On the day Bui Hoang Viet Anh had to go to the emergency room, CAHN Club suffered a 0-3 defeat against The Cong Viettel. This result left the reigning V-League champions in 3rd place with 22 points and 7 points behind the top of the table Nam Dinh .

Bui Hoang Viet Anh's injury makes the personnel situation of the Vietnam National Team even more difficult, when the two decisive matches with the Indonesian National Team in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers are approaching. Previously, Que Ngoc Hai, Nguyen Tuan Anh, Do Hung Dung, and Pham Tuan Hai were all injured.
