Following a frantic pursuit in the rain, Hanoi FC led by Harry Kewell achieved a 3-1 final win over Becamex TPHCM.

The match between Becamex TPHCM and Hanoi FC in the 8th round of V-League ended with a 3-2 win for the capital team, marking Harry Kewell’s first victory as head coach and a memorable moment when Đỗ Hoàng Hên scored his first goal for the new club.

The game at Gò Đậu stadium took place under harsh weather conditions, with heavy rain flooding the pitch and noticeably affecting the quality of play. The match was even paused for nearly 20 minutes in the first half to ensure safety. When play resumed, Becamex TPHCM made better use of the opportunity. In the 25th minute, Việt Cường capitalized on a Hanoi defensive error, skillfully chipping the ball to give the home team the lead.

However, true to the resilience of a top team, Hanoi FC quickly regained control. Late in the first half, Passira headed in close range to equalize 1-1 after goalkeeper Minh Toàn failed to hold the ball firmly.

In the second half, Harry Kewell’s squad showed clear dominance. The match saw three penalties awarded — two for Becamex TPHCM and one for Hanoi FC. In the 56th minute, Hoàng Hên changed the game by calmly converting the penalty, putting Hanoi FC ahead 2-1. This was also the naturalized player’s first goal for Hanoi FC.

The home team had a chance to equalize at the 79th minute with a penalty, but Oduenyi's shot went over the bar in disappointment. At 90+3 minutes, Xuân Mạnh headed in to extend the visitors’ lead to 3-1, before Ferreira reduced the deficit to 2-3 with a late penalty at 90+10 minutes.

Nevertheless, there was not enough time left for Becamex TPHCM to cause an upset. Hanoi FC claimed all 3 valuable points, starting Harry Kewell’s era with a tactically impressive and spirited victory.
