Those are two players Vu Tien Long and Pereira Junior Denilson. If Tien Long's case was due to a red card (2 yellow cards) in the match against Binh Duong Club (round 1 make-up match), then the fact that rookie Junior Denilson cannot debut in the Capital team's shirt due to a disciplinary decision from the Brazilian Football Federation (CBF) is a regrettable case.

While playing in Brazil for Avai Club, he received a direct red card when the team met Atletico Goianiense Club. When he came to Vietnam, he continued to serve his punishment and sat out the recent matches of Hanoi FC (the make-up match of round 1 and the upcoming match of round 4).

This is a big disadvantage for Hanoi FC when they visit Quy Nhon in the upcoming round 4. Hanoi FC is having a dense schedule of matches in both the V-League and AFC Champions League. The team is currently in Korea to prepare for the match against Pohang Steelers (5:00 p.m. on November 29).

It is expected that on November 30, Hanoi FC will return to Vietnam to continue preparing for the match of round 4 of Night Wolf V-League 2023-24 when hosting Quy Nhon Binh Dinh at home on December 3. The positive thing for Hanoi FC is that the team is quite familiar with the high competition schedule as this is not the first time facing each other.

The tight schedule is a challenge, plus the fact that foreign player Junior Denilson has not been able to debut, however, the recent form of coach The Nam and his team has improved with the victory, which has lifted the team's spirit.

Other players forced to sit out in round 4 of Night Wolf V-League 2023-24 include: Pham Manh Hung (Hai Phong Club), Lam Anh Quang (HL Ha Tinh), Doan Ngoc Ha (Dong A Thanh Hoa), Le Van Thanh (SLNA).
