Vietnam U17 stands as the team with the most goals scored following two rounds of the 2026 Southeast Asia U17 Championship.
Vietnam U17 is demonstrating exceptionally impressive form at the 2026 Southeast Asia U17 Championship by securing another decisive victory in their second Group A match. Against Timor-Leste U17, Coach Cristiano Roland's squad faced little difficulty in dominating the game and achieving a commanding 10-0 win.
This result gives Vietnam U17 a full 6 points after two matches, while also establishing a significant advantage in goal difference (+14). This factor is crucial in the context of the intense competition for semifinal berths. In the final round, Vietnam U17 will face host Indonesia in a decisive match for the top spot in Group A.
Not only leading their group, Vietnam U17 is also the tournament's highest-scoring team at this stage. After two matches, the young players have netted a total of 14 goals while maintaining a clean sheet. Previously, they defeated Malaysia U17 4-0 and continued their explosive form with a heavy win over Timor-Leste U17.
Close behind in scoring capability is Australia U17, a team showing very strong form in Group C. The representative from the land of kangaroos has scored 13 goals in two matches and also hasn't conceded. They started with a 12-0 victory over Brunei U17 before overcoming Singapore U17 with a narrow 1-0 win.
On the opposite side, Timor-Leste U17 is the team that has conceded the most goals in the tournament, with 14 goals lost in just two matches. Right behind is Brunei U17 with 13 goals conceded. These numbers partly illustrate the disparity in skill levels among teams in this year's competition.
Meanwhile, some highly-rated teams have disappointed. Thailand U17 surprisingly lost 0-1 to Myanmar U17 despite previously crushing Philippines 5-1. Host Indonesia U17 also displayed instability, losing to Malaysia 0-1 after a 4-0 win over Timor-Leste. These results further highlight the convincing form and consistency of Vietnam U17.
