According to the match schedule, the Vietnamese team will face the Philippines team at Rizal Memorial Stadium, in the 4th match of Group B - ASEAN Cup 2024.
Vietnam is leading the rankings with 6 points after the first 2 matches and 2 points ahead of second-place Indonesia (having played 3 matches). Therefore, Quang Hai and his teammates have the opportunity to win tickets to the semi-finals 1 round early with the top spot in Group B if they win against the Philippines in the next match.
On the other side, the Philippines team does not have the right to decide for themselves. But if they want to win a ticket to the next round, they must defeat Vietnam at home. However, this is not easy at this time.
This team has changed significantly under new captain Albert Capellas. Notably, the players who were in the squad that played against Vietnam half a year ago are not present at the ASEAN Cup such as Demuynck, Ingreso, Reichelt, Porteria, Nyholm.
Meanwhile, the Vietnamese team has the strongest lineup with Quang Hai, Tien Linh, Hai Long, Duy Manh, Thanh Chung, Xuan Manh and even Nguyen Filip.
The match between the Philippines and Vietnam will take place at 8:00 p.m. today (December 18), broadcast live on VTV2 and FPT Play.
