Two consecutive victories against U19 Timor-Leste and Myanmar, scoring 8 goals and conceding none, have temporarily placed U19 Vietnam at the top of Group A in the 2026 Southeast Asian U19 Championship after two matches. However, the upcoming clash with U19 Indonesia is the most crucial challenge for Coach Yutaka Ikeuchi and his squad.

After a 5-0 victory over Myanmar, Vietnam's U19 team received a shower of praise from Thai media. The Krian Buriram v2 page even asserted that Vietnam deserves to be number one in Southeast Asia.

The Cambodian national team showcased its strength with a 4-0 victory over Bhutan, demonstrating remarkable progress on the eve of the 2026 AFF Cup, which features Vietnam.

The draw for the 2026/27 Shopee Cup has produced exciting groups, as defending champion Buriram United embarks on its title defense journey, while reigning V.League champion CAHN faces a host of formidable Southeast Asian opponents.

VPF caused a stir by assigning a Malaysian FIFA referee to officiate the Thể Công Viettel vs. CAHN match in the final round of V-League 2025/2026.

The Indonesian outlet Bola stated that Vietnam's group in the 2027 Asian Cup will be tougher with Yemen's inclusion.

Coach Kim Sang Sik met and worked with Coach Alexandre Polking of Hanoi Police Club (CAHN) regarding the personnel of the Vietnam national team in the near future.

In November 2011, during the third round of World Cup qualifiers, the Chinese team won 4-0 at this venue, but that was over a decade ago. Notably, the pitch measures only 98 meters by 63.5 meters, which benefits the home team's counter-attacking strategy.

Written by Han Bing. The USA-Canada-Mexico World Cup will serve as a "testing ground" for several new football rules, including three time-limit rules to accelerate the game and reduce feigned injuries, expanded VAR intervention for controversial decisions, and red card rules targeting "words that lead to trouble." These will all be enforced in this World Cup. Additionally, due to the hot weather in North America, the rule allowing three-minute water breaks in each half will remain in effect.

The reigning V-League champions, Cong An Ha Noi (CAHN), have avoided a clash with defending champions Buriram United but will take on Malaysian football giant Johor Darul Ta'zim in the group stage of the 2026/27 ASEAN Shopee Cup.
