Match schedule of U.20 Vietnam in the 2025 U.20 Asian qualifiers

This match schedule is considered favorable for U.20 Vietnam, as the opponents are gradually increasing in difficulty. In particular, U.20 Syria is considered a rival that will compete for the top spot in Group A with coach Hua Hien Vinh and his team.

The matches in Group A will be hosted by Vietnam and will take place at Lach Tray Stadium ( Hai Phong ), from September 21 to September 29. This is a great advantage for U.20 Vietnam, when playing as the host. Coach Hua Hien Vinh's team will receive great support from the enthusiastic fans at Lach Tray Stadium.

To prepare for the 2025 U.20 Asian qualifiers, the U.20 Vietnam team gathered on August 15 at the Vietnam Youth Football Training Center. After that, the team had a training trip to Japan from August 23 to September 1, and most recently played a friendly match with the U.20 Russia team. "The coaching staff was forced to make changes to the training plan, in the context of the impact of storms. However, the goal of U.20 Vietnam remains unchanged. The whole team will try to achieve the best results in each match, striving to win a direct ticket to the 2025 U.20 Asian Cup," Head Coach Hua Hien Vinh affirmed.
