Referee Razlan Joffri Bin Ali participated in the match between Hanoi and Nam Dinh.

The match between Hanoi FC and Nam Dinh Blue Steel, the two teams leading the rankings, will be officiated by two Malaysian FIFA referees: Muhammad Izzul Fikri Kamaruzaman and Razlan Joffri Bin Ali.

One of them will take on the role of referee, while the other will act as VAR. This is the fourth match in the National Championship this season to feature an international referee. Referee Bin Ali has appeared in two of the previous three matches, including one as referee and one as VAR.

Referee Muhammad Izzul Fikri Kamaruzaman, Bin Ali's colleague, started his refereeing career in 2012 and became a Malaysian national referee in 2016. In 2023, he was selected by the Football Association of Malaysia as one of six promising young faces and participated in an advanced training program in Saudi Arabia.

The match between Hanoi and Nam Dinh Blue Steel will take place at 7:15 p.m. on May 4 at Hang Day Stadium. The home team Hanoi FC is currently in second place with 37 points, while coach Vu Hong Viet and his team are leading the rankings with 39 points.

This confrontation will be an important turning point in the race for the championship, not only for these two teams but also for the teams right behind, such as The Cong Viettel (33 points) and Hong Linh Ha Tinh (31 points), teams that are also in good form.
