The derby match between Hanoi FC and The Cong Viettel ended in a 1-1 draw. This was the debut match of the new coach of Hanoi FC, Mr. Adachi. Evaluating the match, the Japanese strategist said: "Everyone wanted to win. We had a good game but in the end we couldn't keep it. I replaced Van Quyet because he had physical and tactical problems. I didn't talk to the player who scored, but to the team. We had an agreement before the match, Tuan Hai followed the tactics and scored."

Talking about the fact that former Hanoi FC coach Makoto Teguramori was still present in the stands after resigning, coach Adachi said: "He is a famous coach in Japan, talented and has a great personality. When coach Makoto Teguramori retired, I took on the team with a heavy responsibility. Mr. Teguramori still supported and communicated, helping me take charge of the team. In fact, the situations leading to goals were left by the previous coach, and not being able to score goals was because I did not do well."

On the other side of the front line, Coach Popov of The Cong Viettel said: "We had a good match. It can be said that the players' performance today was better than in the Cup match. Hanoi FC is a strong team with many good players, it is not easy for us to win and draw in 1 week. One point is deserved. Overall, The Cong Viettel had a difficult schedule but did well.

Hanoi FC plays more aggressively after having a new coach, if not the best then at least top 3 V-League. They have many quality individuals, no player in Vietnam can stop Hai Long in 1-on-1 situations".
