Having the same 6 points after two opening matches, U23 Vietnam is temporarily ranked above U23 Yemen due to a better goal difference (3/0 compared to 3/1).

Therefore, coach Kim Sang Sik's team only needs a draw to officially win a ticket to the 2026 AFC U23 Championship finals.

But the problem is not just 1 or 3 points, fans expect a more convincing performance from the U23 Vietnam team.

With what they have shown, U23 Yemen has shown that they are not too formidable opponents. In the opening match, the Yemen players quickly took a 2-0 lead in the first half thanks to two 11m kicks. However, they let U23 Singapore equalize 1-2 in the second half.

Most recently, U23 Yemen struggled to defeat U23 Bangladesh 1-0 thanks to a late goal in the 90+4 minute. Notably, coach Amin Al Suneini's team could only score when the opponent had 10 men on the field in the 87th minute due to a red card.

However, U23 Yemen promises to create more difficulties for coach Kim Sang Sik and his team compared to U23 Bangladesh or Singapore.
