In the semi-final match of the 2025 AFC U20 Championship, U20 Saudi Arabia held Korea U20 to a 0-0 draw, then entered the penalty shootout and defeated their opponent with a score of 3-2 to win a ticket to the final.
Meanwhile, U20 Australia had a more favorable game when they won 2-0 against U20 Japan, participating in the tournament championship trophy match.
In the history of the tournament, U20 Saudi Arabia has won the U20 Asian Cup 3 times in 1986, 1992, 2018. Australia U20 was less fortunate to be crowned and only won the runner-up title once in 2010.
In terms of playing style, the West Asian team was somewhat practical when proactively defending tightly before attacking. This tactic has helped U20 Saudi Arabia become the team that conceded the fewest goals with only 2 goals conceded, but has only scored 4 goals since the beginning of the tournament.
On the other side, U20 Australia plays with a heavy attacking style of play based on the players' strong physical foundation, combined with effective aerial battles, coordinating the middle with short, low balls.
Therefore, the two teams promise to bring an exciting final match, taking place at 6:30 p.m. today (March 1).
