Cong An Ha Noi Football Club (Vietnamese: Câu lạc bộ bóng đá Công an Hà Nội, lit.'Football club of the Hanoi Police') or CA Hanoi, or simply CAHN is a Vietnamese professional football club based in Hanoi, that will compete in the 2023 V.League 1, the highest division of Vietnamese football. Its predecessor was the Cong An Nhan Dan FC (Vietnamese: CLB Công An Nhân Dân, lit.'People's Public Security FC'), which changed its name after being promoted to V.League 1 from the 2023 season.[2]

Establishment

In 1954, Minister of Public Security Tran Quoc Hoan directed then-Hanoi City Public Security Director Nguyen Van Long to study and establish a football team. Founded on October 10, 1956, perhaps only after Thể Công, the team immediately proved its position as the most worthy opponent of the successful team wearing the soldier's shirt as soon as Thể Công stormed the Northern Vietnamese football. It is recognized as the Metropolitan representative by the People Committee of Hanoi.[3] Known for their annoying counter-attacking play, the team is always a nasty opponent against any strong team, but is relatively erratic when playing against weaker teams. Perhaps that's why the team's record is not commensurate with the strength and tradition that the team possesses.

When first established, the CAHN was under the leadership of Mr. Lê Viễn, an official from the TDTT Department of the Ministry of Public Security, and Mr. Hoàng Nghĩa Đường, a former boxing champion of Indochina and a member of the Organizational Department of the Hà Nội Police. However, in the early days of building the team from scratch, Mr. Lê Nghĩa used his political influence to request special permission from the Ministry of Public Security to take over almost the entire Hoàng Diệu football team. This team, with the core of famous players from Hanoi who had previously played for the Cảnh Binh team during the French colonial period, was the strongest team in Hà Nội at that time. Its lineup included goalkeepers Nghĩa and A Loóc, as well as players Bùi Nghẽn, Lưu Đình Tòng, Nguyễn Huy Luyến, Nguyễn Thưởng, Nguyễn Văn Thìn A, Bùi Hợi, Vũ Hợi, Tuất, and Phú Tí.[4] The team was supplemented with police officers and talented young people from Hanoi who had a knack for football. In the early stages, there were individuals such as Phan Đức Âu, Nguyễn Mạnh Cường, and in the following group, there were Đài "gôn", Tô Hiền, Tô Giới Pháp, Xuân "gôn", Du "cò", Sơn "min", Đức "khựa", Độ "trây", Thọ "gáo", Thái "si", Thịnh "cơm", Hạc "phệ", Thành A, Ngọc "tráp", and Dư "còng".[5]

During the early days of restored peace, the matches of the CAHN versus Thể Công, as well as their matches with other teams at the Septo Field (which was renamed Hàng Đẫy Stadium in 1958), served as a real source of encouragement for the nation's rebuilding efforts after the extraordinary anti-French colonial period.

By the late 1960s and early 1970s, the Hà Nội city prioritized adding players to the CAHN from various sources. There were internally trained players like Tô Quang Nhạ, who later became the captain. Players transferred from the Hà Nội Youth Team, such as Quang B, Đặng "cóc", Hai "voi", Cường Học, Pháp "ngớ", Điệp "lùn", and Chi "tơ". Players coming from abroad, including Thành C and Hiển "Coóc". From the Thể Công team, there were Duy Lễ and Nghị “chớp”, and from the training school, there was Hiếu "trâu".[6]

In 1957, just one year after its establishment, CAHN defeated Thể Công 2 – 0 in the finals of the Northern Region A-League Championship, asserting its position in the football community of Northern Vietnam.

The second half of the 90s of the 20th century can be said to be an unfortunate period for the team when with a relatively equal lineup of players, but the team is more known for its betting scandals and borrowing points. than achievements on the field. In 1992, the team performed poorly and had to be relegated to A1. In the 1995 season, the team again won the right to be promoted to the Major League (currently V.League 1).

Despite its unstable performance compared to Công an Hải Phòng, the team is still considered one of the strongest teams in the country as a whole and under the People's Public Security sector, as well as in the city of Hanoi specifically. Over the years, the team has contributed many outstanding generations of players to the national team of the Public Security sector, competing against police teams from other countries within socialist blocs, as well as representing Hanoi and Vietnam in various international tournaments.

Dissolution

In the period of changing the mechanism in how to make football, a football team of players on the staff of the Public Security could not exist. In 2002, the team was dissolved and transferred to Vietnam Airlines at 2003 V-League. After the 2003 tournament, the Vietnam Aviation team was also dissolved. The relegation spot in the V-League was sold to ACB Sports Joint Stock Company. This company also accepted eight players from Vietnam Airlines into the football team Hanoi ACB. The rest of the players were transferred to play Vietnamese National Football First League with the team Hoa Phat Hanoi. The capital's Public Security team after nearly 50 years is considered as no longer participating in football life.

Convert to Cong An Nhan Dan

On April 7, 2008, Lieutenant General Nguyễn Khánh Toàn, the then-Deputy Minister of Public Security (Vietnam) signed the Decision No. 375/QD-BCA (X15) on the establishment of the CAND. Several clubs in the name of the Public Security force had existed before.[7][8]

Promotion to V.League 1 and rebranded

In November 2022, implementing the "Project on development of the CAND Football Club in a professional direction", General To Lam, Politburo member, Minister Ministry of Public Security directing the transfer of the newly promoted "Cong An Nhan Dan FC" to the management of Hanoi City Public Security and changing its name to Hanoi Police FC, 20 years after being dissolved. They re-established with a strong team consisting of 11 players from the former Cong An Nhan Dan team and recruited more than 20 players from domestic and international football clubs (as required by the V.League regulations that clubs accepting promoted spots must include a minimum of 10 players from the transferring club). Notable players signed by Cong An Ha Noi were Doan Van Hau, Vu Van Thanh, Ho Tan Tai, Phan Van Duc, Nguyen Quang Hai and Filip Nguyen. In the 2023 V.League 1, the team clinched a dramatic championship title, finishing with 38 points and drawing 1-1 against Thanh Hóa at Hàng Đẫy Stadium in the final match. With this achievement, Công An Hà Nội replicated the success of Hoang Anh Gia Lai in 2003 and Dong Thap in 1989, as they won the championship in their very first season after promotion.

Rivalries

Hanoi FC

Hanoi ACB under the ownership of Nguyễn Đức Kiên (the club that received the transfer from the Hanoi Police Department in 2002) until it temporarily suspended participation in football activities, was considered one of the main rivals of the purple-clad team in the capital. In matches at Hang Day Stadium, there was always a banner from the Club of Hanoi Fan of Mr. Kiên - CHF (the predecessor of the CAHN Fan- also CHF with the bold letters: "This is the real Hanoi". Many fans in Hanoi still do not consider the purple-clad team to be the true representative of Hanoi.

For many fans in the capital, the CAHN is the true representative of football in the city. After being re-established based on the transfer from the Cong An Nhan Dan FC, CAHN officially returned to V.League 1 from the 2023 season. In fact, according to the establishment decision of the club by Hanoi City People's Committee in 1956, CAHN is officially the representative of the city's people in football. The rivalry between the two clubs is between one that is the legitimate representative of the capital (Hanoi Police) and one that is seeking recognition (the purple-clad team).

The two clubs first met in Round 2, Stage I, V-League 2023 when the purple-clad team won 2-0 against their rival with goals from Trần Văn Kiên in the 71st minute and Nguyễn Văn Quyết in the 82nd minute. However, in the rematch in the return leg at Round 5, Stage II, V-League 2023, after both clubs had made personnel changes between seasons, CAHN won 2-1 against the purple-clad team with a brace from Gustavo Henrique Rodrigues in the 16th and 47th minutes, with a consolation goal from new signing Milan Jevtović for the purple-clad team in the 23rd minute. As a result, CAHN rose to the top of the table with 2 points more than the purple-clad team. In addition to moving to the top of the table, CAHN defeated their rival in their 350th V-League match.

Thể Công - Viettel

In the memory of football fans in the capital, and in Vietnamese football in general, the derby between the CAHN and Thể Công has always held a special position. The Cờ Cột Stadium or even Hang Day Stadium have never lacked matches worth following between the two teams at any stage of history. This has not only been a match between the most talented generations of Vietnamese football but also a match between the forces of Northern football and beyond, that is, Vietnamese football. This is a duel between two teams in Hanoi, both representing the people's armed forces, and determining whether the capital will bear the blue of the CAHN or the red of Thể Công. Thể Công proudly holds the most national championship titles, while the CAHN also has the right to be proud as the most challenging opponent of Thể Công throughout history. In fact, the CAHN has often defeated Thể Công when the opponent was on the verge of winning the championship.

Although the on-field developments have always been dramatic, the players and fans of both teams have never engaged in excessive actions against each other, and have always shown each other great respect.

On February 14, 2023, CAHN lost 1-2 to Viettel in Round 3 of V.League 2023 at Hang Day Stadium. This was the first official encounter between the two teams after 21 years."
