Today (July 18), the second round of the group stage of the 2025 U23 Southeast Asian Football Championship will take place.
Accordingly, U23 Brunei will face U23 Malaysia at 5:00 p.m. Both teams did not have favorable results in the opening match when they lost 0-8 to U23 Indonesia and 0-2 to U23 Philippines respectively.
For Malaysia, this is a very disappointing result. Therefore, they need a victory against Brunei to bring home the first points and hold on to the opportunity to win a ticket to the semi-finals.
Meanwhile, at 20:00, U23 Philippines will face U23 Indonesia. At this time, the team from the archipelago is temporarily leading the rankings due to the Philippines' advantage in goal difference.
The result of this match will directly affect the rankings of the two teams in Group A. Of course, no one wants to fail in this round because they may lose their ticket to the next round.
