SEA Games draw: Vietnam women's futsal in the same group with Indonesia

(Dan Tri) - The SEA Games 33 football draw is taking place. U22 Vietnam has the possibility of meeting Malaysia again in this tournament.

The SEA Games 33 football draw took place at Divalux Resort & Spa Bangkok Suvarnabhumi at 10:45 am today (October 19). This is a highly anticipated event for Southeast Asian football at the end of this year.

According to the seed grouping results, U22 Vietnam will be in seed group number 1 with U22 Thailand and U22 Indonesia (reigning champions).

Meanwhile, the second seed group includes U22 Myanmar, U22 Malaysia and U22 Cambodia. The third seed group includes U22 Singapore, U22 Philippines and U22 Laos.

The teams will be drawn into three groups to compete in a round-robin format. The three group winners and the best runners-up will advance to the semi-finals.

This seeding result could cause U22 Vietnam to face U22 Malaysia right from the group stage. Recently, Malaysia has been the focus of attention in Southeast Asian football when FIFA accused them of using 7 naturalized players to cheat in the match against the Vietnamese team in the 2027 Asian Cup qualifiers.

Although Malaysia won 4-0 against Vietnam, they are in danger of losing this match. Therefore, the reunion of the young Vietnamese and Malaysian teams can create many emotions.

The matches are scheduled to take place from December 3 to December 18. The group stage will be held in three locations: Bangkok, Songkhla and Chiang Mai. From the semi-finals onwards, matches will be held at Rajamangala Stadium (Bangkok, Thailand). Men's football requires teams to use an U22 squad (players born from January 1, 2003 onwards) and there are no slots for overage players.
