Hanoi FC

Foundation and rise

Hanoi FC was formed in 2006 as T&T Hanoi Football Club (Vietnamese: Câu lạc bộ bóng đá T&T Hà Nội) by T&T Group. The team initially played in the lowest division of Vietnamese football, the Third Division. In its first three years, under the management of former Vietnamese international Triệu Quang Hà, the team achieved consecutive promotions. They finished in 1st place in Third Division in 2006, 2nd place in Second Division in 2007, and 2nd place in First Division in 2008, earning the right to compete in 2009 V-League, the Vietnamese top-tier football league.

First V.League title and establishment of a new powerhouse

Once the club established its foothold, Hanoi T&T began to rapidly emerge as a strong contender and experienced success in its debut season in the top league. Although the club missed out on winning the 2009 season, they found joy the following year by clinching their first-ever title in the 2010 season. Thanks to good management and their domestic trophy win in 2010, Hanoi T&T was able to participate in their first international tournament, the 2011 AFC Cup. However, the club performed poorly in their debut AFC Cup campaign, finishing third in Group G. In the 2012 season, Hanoi T&T finished in second place. There were many rumors suggesting that Hanoi T&T played defensively throughout the final match against Xuan Thanh Saigon to help SHB Da Nang win the title—another club owned by the same person who owned Hanoi…

Hanoi FC is one of the most successful clubs in Vietnam and currently holds the title of the most successful club in the 21st century in terms of major trophies, despite only being established in 2006. The club's first trophy was the Vietnamese Third League, which they won as Hanoi T&T in 2006. In 2010, the club secured its first top-division league title. Since then, they have gone on to win a record 6 top-division titles and 3 Vietnamese Cups. These achievements have earned the club a record 8 appearances in the Vietnamese Super Cup, winning 5 of them.
