Mr. Polking surprised with the big win

Hanoi Police Club (CAHN) erased the regret of two winless matches by defeating Becamex TP.HCM 3-0 at Go Dau Stadium, on the day Quang Hai scored and assisted to help coach Mano Polking regain the joy of victory.

In addition to the goals, the match was also heated with arguments, causing coach Mano Polking and assistant Pena Luis Filipe to receive yellow cards in the 33rd and 38th minutes, while Becamex TP.HCM Club was also upset about Trung Hieu's second yellow card, which left them with only 10 players from the 41st minute.

Coach Mano Polking said: "Initially when I moved from Bangkok to Binh Duong Stadium, I only set the goal of getting points, but I didn't think I would win by such a large margin.

That's because I think this is a very difficult match when facing the home team Becamex TP.HCM who is quite excited after the victory over HAGL. In this match, our players took advantage of the opportunity better than in the match against BG Pathum a few days ago."

When asked whether reacting to the referee was a "tactic" of the CAHN club's coaching staff, Mr. Polking immediately responded: "Reacting to the referee is not our tactic at all. We react because we just want the referee to do his job better, and there is no other intention."

Coach Anh Duc: The referee was heavy-handed with Becamex TP.HCM

Coach Nguyen Anh Duc shared: "Actually, right before this match, we anticipated it would be very difficult, because CAHN Club has a very strong force with many stars in the squad. But I didn't think the team would lose so badly, the turning point of the match was probably Trung Hieu's second yellow card turned into a red card.

I don't want to blame anyone, but I think the referee was quite heavy-handed with Becamex TP.HCM when he gave Trung Hieu a second yellow card, when 10 minutes earlier he had received the first yellow card.

In that situation, I think it would have been better for the referee to consider and remind the player. However, everything has happened, so I don't want to discuss it any further."

The defeat at home caused Becamex TP.HCM to miss the opportunity to catch up with the top team Ninh Binh FC. They will next have an away match at The Cong Viettel Stadium on August 30.

Coach Anh Duc said: "After 3 matches, V-League will have a break for the national teams to focus on FIFA Day. For me, the first 3 matches are very important and Becamex TP.HCM's goal is to try to get points, so the upcoming away match at The Cong Viettel Stadium is the same.

Speaking of important, because in addition to testing the force, I also want the players to have good connections with each other. What I am satisfied with in the last 2 matches is the fighting spirit of the players of Becamex TP.HCM.

Even in today's loss to CAHN Club, I have nothing to complain about them. I just hope my players will try harder in the upcoming match."
