According to the schedule, coach Yutaka Ikeuchi and his team will meet U19 Timor Leste in the opening match on June 1. After that, U19 Vietnam will successively face U19 Myanmar on June 4. before entering the important match against U19 Indonesia on the evening of June 7.
The 2026 U19 Southeast Asian Championship has 11 participating teams, divided into 3 groups. The top three teams in each group and the second team with the best results will win tickets to the semi-finals.
To prepare for the tournament, U19 Vietnam had a training trip to Japan to improve physical strength and expertise. However, the team faced difficulties in terms of force when many players still played for clubs in domestic professional leagues as well as preparing for the high school graduation exam.
However, the Vietnam U19 team is still expected to make a mark at the regional tournament thanks to a long preparation process and a young force with great potential.
