The Vietnamese football team still has 90 minutes left to turn the tables on Thailand to reach the final match of the 2020 AFF Cup. The 0-2 loss to Thailand in the first leg of the semi-finals poses an extremely tremendous challenge for Vietnam in this second leg. The team has to find a way to score goals and, at the same time, avoid conceding. Besides, Coach Park Hang-seo’s players need to have cool heads at the moment.
Through the performance of both Vietnamese and Thai football teams since the beginning of the AFF Cup tournament, from the strength of the force to the stability of the form, the upcoming face-off between them is forecasted to be the early final and the super classic match of Southeast Asia.

The competition between Vietnam and Malaysia in the group stage of this year's tournament is the reenactment of the final match of the 2018 AFF Cup. The fierceness of the previous three years remains intact because both teams want to prove who is the real "king" of the group stage.
The Vietnamese national football team will work hard through each match to get the best results at the AFF Suzuki Cup 2020, Coach Park Hang-seo said on December 4.

The remaining direct spot to the finals will be decided after the match between U22 Vietnam and U22 Myanmar on the evening of November 2.
