Hanoi FC has been fined for being unable to control flare sticks in the match against Hai Phong, it is likely that Hang Day will be banned audience again.

In the match against Hai Phong, Hanoi FC mobilized a force of up to 500 security personnel, including guards and police. Hang Day yard is also equipped with high-technical equipment such as magnetic doors and scanners to prevent fans from bringing weapons, flammables and explosives into the yard. However, all efforts could not prevent Hai Phong FC from burning 6-7 flare sticks.

The organizers of Hang Day yard were fined 40 million VND ($1,700) for failing to ensure the safety of the match between Hanoi FC and Hai Phong round 10 V-League 2020 on July 17. Similarly, the Port team was also fined 40 million dong.

Before issuing the penalty, VFF disciplinary chief, Mr. Vu Xuan Thanh said: “We will review the file and then apply some provisions of the VFF Additional Disciplinary Regulations issued in 2018 to offering solutions to the Hai Phong club and the organizing committee of the Hanoi Club. Hai Phong club was fined for Hai Phong fans who committed extreme acts, lighting flare sticks on the stands of Hang Day yard. The organizers of the match between Hanoi and Hai Phong, despite mobilizing a large force and trying, still could not prevent the situation "- according to TTHCM.

Mr. Thanh added: "However, in my personal opinion, we cant let this happen again. We will report it to the VFF standing staff to discuss the solution, maybe the match between Hanoi vs Hai Phong is without spectators.

If moving to an alternative yard or deducting points is a too heavy punishment, it will be best to compete without an audience. Of course, this decision will cause different opinions. Hanoi fans are disadvantaged because they cant watch their home team. But it is better not to let Hai Phong fans enter the field and light flare sticks again.”

 Last season, Hanoi FC also suffered a heavy penalty for letting Nam Dinh fans light flares sticks which caused a fan to suffer severe burns and had to go to emergency. Three people who carried out flares sticks were sentenced to imprisonment, the most punishable is up to 7 years.
