On the evening of September 29, the U20 Vietnam team suffered a 0-1 defeat to U20 Syria in the final match of the 2025 U20 Asian qualifiers.
Both teams have won all three of their first matches, so this clash is crucial to the top of the table. However, coach Hua Hien Vinh and his team are under more pressure because their goal difference is lower than their opponents.
With a narrow defeat to U20 Syria, U20 Vietnam has lost the right to self-determination. According to the format, the 10 group winners and 5 best second-placed teams will qualify for the 2025 AFC U20 Championship finals.
U20 Vietnam is temporarily in first place among the second-placed teams, but will have to wait for the teams to complete their matches at the end of today (September 29).
