The opening match of Group C of the 2026 U17 Asian qualifiers between U17 Vietnam and U17 Singapore will take place at 19:00 on November 22 at the PVF Youth Football Training Center.
This is an important match for the home team, because only the top team in the group will qualify for the final round. Therefore, the goal of U17 Vietnam is to win all 3 points and create momentum for the next matches.
U17 Vietnam entered the tournament with even preparation, stable mentality and the advantage of playing at home. Meeting an opponent who was rated lower in the opening match helped coach Cristiano Roland and his team easily deploy their playing style and reduce pressure.
The U17 Vietnam squad brings together many faces from strong training facilities such as PVF, Hanoi or The Cong Viettel. After the training trip to Japan, U17 Vietnam showed clear progress, especially in their attacking ability.
In this match, the home team will likely proactively control the midfield, deploy the ball quickly and press at high distances. The speedy boundary shots and small coordination are expected to create breakthroughs. However, the attack needs to take advantage of opportunities because Singapore can also counterattack and cause surprises.
With superior expertise and home advantage, U17 Vietnam is expected to have a smooth start and aim for a big win to create an advantage in the race for the top spot.
The match between U17 Vietnam and U17 Singapore will be broadcast live on FPT Play.
