The club has participated in the V.League 1 since the 2009 season.[2] The club has been regarded as the first fully professionalized club in the country.
Hanoi's traditional colours is purple-white or purple-yellow home strip. The club's main rivals are Haiphong, against whom they contest the Northern Vietnam Derby. They also contest Hanoi with Viettel[3]
History[]
Foundation and rise[]
Hanoi FC was established in 2006 by T&T Group, a partly private business company that was seeking its fortune to raise the status. T&T hoped that by establishing the club, it would improve the company's profits to become a major company while on the same time also sought to bring the first sense of professional football to replace the current semi-professional status of Vietnamese football.[4] Eventually, the club was officially established with support from local authorities as Hanoi T&T, and began in the lowest division of Vietnamese football, V.League 4.
Ever since the foundation, investment from the T&T company toward the club started to rise, and the club slowly managed to acquire its best players to play for the club, while on the same time Hanoi T&T began to improve. The club was quick to acquire straight promotion on its seasonal debut in V.League 4, before earning promotion to V.League 1 after just three years of existence, making the club the most promising name on Vietnamese football.[5]
First V.League title and establishment of a new powerhouse[]
Once the club established its foothold, Hanoi T&T began to emerge radically and started to feel success in its debut on the top league. The club missed out their chance to win the 2009 season, but soon got the joy when they won the 2010 season, the club's first ever title.[5] Since then, the club has always maintained as one of the best supported, cleaned of corruption and financially stable in Vietnam, a rare case in Vietnamese football where corruption and financial mismanagement is a norm – thus allowing the club to gain two another titles in 2013 and 2016.[5]
Thanked for good management and domestic trophy in 2010, Hanoi T&T was able to participate in their first international tournament, the 2011 AFC Cup. However, Hanoi T&T had performed poorly in their first AFC Cup tournament, finishing in third place. The team however returned in 2014 AFC Cup, where they had its best performance in the AFC Cup up to that date, reaching the last eight before losing to eventual finalist Erbil SC from Iraq.
Name change[]
In 2016, shortly after winning the 2016 season, T&T Group decided to dedicate the club to the people of Hanoi, thus retreating its stakeholder and the club was officially renamed as Hanoi FC. The City Council had also decided to grant Hàng Đẫy Stadium to the club as a tribute so the club could use and improve the facilities.[5]
Hanoi FC managed to continue maintaining its domination, while on the same time had participated in the 2017 AFC Cup and 2019 AFC Cup. The 2017 AFC Cup was not a successful tournament when Hanoi FC was eliminated in the group stage. In 2019 edition, Hanoi FC made its historic breakthrough, reaching the semi-finals of the AFC Cup for the first time, but lost to North Korean April 25 Sports Club by away goal rule.[6]

Stadium[]
The team plays at the Hàng Đẫy Stadium in Hanoi, which was handled to the club in 2016 as a gesture for the club's professionalism and success. During the visit of the Communist Party of Vietnam's general secretary Nguyễn Phú Trọng in France in 2018, he and the French President Emmanuel Macron signed plenty of cooperation deals, including the rebuild and renovation of the stadium. The new stadium will cost €250 million and will be designed and built by the French company Bouygues.[7]
Supporters[]
The club has a quite moderate, if not to say, low number of supporters despite its prestigious achievements, a legacy of previous corruption in V.League as many people lost interests to attend the league watching their clubs.[8] In order to change the image, in 2015, a group of fans decided to found the first fan base for the club, known as Contras Hanoi. After early difficulties and conflict with old fans, Contras Hanoi has had over 2,000 members as for 2018 and has been expanding since, while also fought to gain official recognition with club's support.[9] Professionalism is also a notable factor on the improvement of fan base and spreading of professional values.
Academy[]
Hanoi FC, in addition to their rising football success, also has a network system of youth football academies to feed the club, which is a major difference from the other major football clubs as Hanoi FC doesn't have a centralized youth academy. The youth team is trained in Hanoi FC's academies either in Gia Lâm or Cửa Lò, the latter shares academy with Song Lam Nghe An FC.[10]
Rivalries[]
Haiphong[]
In terms of geographical factors, Hanoi and Hai Phong are the two largest cities in the North Vietnam, their people also have conflicts unrelated to football. Both clubs are also the two of the most successful clubs in the North, the confrontation with Hai Phong is therefore also known as the "Northern Derby".[11] The Portland is one of the opponents who always cause difficulties when encountering The Capital Team with an unpleasant play, the confrontation between the two teams is always fierce on the field, the rivalry of the fans. The culmination was the 2016 V-League season when Hanoi won the championship thanks to the difference in difference compared to the fiercely competitive team at that time, Hai Phong. In addition, the matches are "literally" hot, with flares being the specialty of the Port team every time they have to be guests at Hang Day Stadium.[12] In the 2017 season, Hai Phong club was disciplined to play at home without an audience when causing trouble in the match against Hanoi in the 6th round of the V.League. In the second leg of that season, a "rain" of flares and a series of water bottles were thrown at My Dinh Stadium (due to the renovation of Hang Day Stadium). The VFF Disciplinary Committee has banned Hai Phong fans from going to the away field at the end of the first leg. In the 2018 season, Hai Phong club was fined a record of more than 300 million VND by the VFF disciplinary committee because fans set off flares. However, by the 6th round of V.League 2019, a huge amount of flares continued to be burned. Mr. Tran Anh Tu - chairman of the board of directors and General Director of VPF said that the match between Hanoi and Hai Phong was the match with "the most firecrackers ever" that he witnessed. And Mr. Vu Xuan Thanh - Head of the VFF Disciplinary Committee said that there must be boxes of flares brought into the stadium by Hai Phong fans. In more than 10 years of confrontation in V.League, Hai Phong vs Hanoi FC are both have scored 63 goals each. Striker Hoang Vu Samson of Hanoi FC is the highest scorer with 12 goals. The tense nature of each confrontation has turned the "Northern Derby" match into an indispensable spice of the V-League, this is a rare true derby of the national championship.[11]
Hoang Anh Gia Lai[]
In the 21st century, Hoang Anh Gia Lai and Hanoi are widely the most supported clubs in Vietnam, so the confrontation between the two clubs is dubbed the "Vietnamese Super Derby". From 2009 to 2020, They met totally 27 times in all competitions, Hanoi overwhelmed with 14 wins, 6 draws, 7 losses. But the great battle between the two teams only started to get attention from 2018, when U23 Vietnam won runner-up in 2018 AFC U-23 Championship with almost players who are playing for both of these teams. Since then, the matches with Hoang Anh Gia Lai have always been the focus of the media when the competition between the two teams is not only the happenings on the field but also the philosophy of football development and management,[13] even their owners are Đỗ Quang Hiển and Đoàn Nguyên Đức.[14] Flares and bottle-throwing scenes have appeared in the match between the two teams.[15] Hot heads not only appeared among players and fans, but once spread to the coaching staff. Due to the tense nature of the match, many times the referee's decisions were controversial, affecting the situation and the outcome of the match.[16]
Viettel[]
Viettel and Hanoi are the same local football club based in Hanoi. With the relive and rising of Red Tornado, Hanoi Derby in 2020 was tension with 2 red cards for both team.[17][18]
Nam Dinh[]
Since the end of the 2018 season, Nam Dinh has been a nemesis, not in the same spirit as the Hanoi club. The reason is said to be when the relegation race between Nam Dinh and Can Tho FC were taking place fiercely. The Green Boys at that time was having a lot of financial difficulties, when the news that Hien offered a bonus of 3 billion VND if the relegation was successful, the players, the coaching staff and the fans of the South felt extremely happy. frustration and the source of the conflict began to rise.[19] Nam Dinh fans began to follow Hai Phong's footsteps and set off flares at Hang Day yard to take revenge on Hanoi.[20] The culmination was in round 22 of the V-League 2019, in the second half of the match between Hanoi and Nam Dinh, a flare from stand B of Nam Dinh fans rushed towards stand A, making the crowd unable to dodge. A female fan named Huyen Anh was unfortunately hit by a cannon in her thigh, she suffered a severe sulfur burn, it affected the bone, so she will definitely need surgery.[21] This incident has stirred up the Vietnamese online community, angry at the extreme action of a part of Nam Dinh fans. Dong Da district police have prosecuted the case and summoned 14 Nam Dinh fans. Chairman of the Hanoi People's Committee Nguyen Duc Chung directed the City Police to focus on investigating, clarifying and strictly handling the person who caused the incident.[22] On the BTC side, it has issued a heavy penalty to the parties involved after the above incident. Hanoi was fined 85 million dong for failing to ensure match security. Nam Dinh was also fined 85 million VND, of which 70 million VND for the error of letting fans light flares, 15 million VND for throwing strange objects on the field. In this match, Hanoi beat Nam Dinh 6–1.
Playing at Thien Truong Stadium has never been easy for Hanoi Club. Even in the peak season of 2019, Hanoi FC still lost 0–2 to Nam Dinh at Thien Truong.
Others[]
Song Lam Nghe An is always a difficult opponent to play even with the former Hanoi T&T and the current Hanoi Club.[23] The fights are always tense, even violent. The results are often mixed. Similar to matches with Hai Phong Club, the match is always hot both on the field and in the stands. It was Song Lam Nghe An who ended the 32 match unbeaten streak at home on the very occasion of the Hanoi club's birthday.[24]
The rivalry with Becamex Binh Duong FC is always tense in the seasons. The matches are often very dramatic. The two teams have also won many times at each other's home ground. At its peak, Becamex Binh Duong was the only team capable of surpassing Hanoi to win the championship for 2 consecutive years despite "only one team".[25][26]
