After a regrettable defeat against host Indonesia in the semi-finals, U.23 Thailand will enter the third-place match of the 2025 Southeast Asian U.23 tournament against U.23 Philippines, at 8:00 p.m. today (July 28) at Gelora Bung Karno Stadium.

The goal of the "war elephants" is nothing more than a convincing victory to win the bronze medal. In terms of force, U.23 Thailand has almost the strongest squad. Players like Seksan Ratree, main striker Yotsakorn Burapha are the outstanding factors of the team of the land of golden pagodas, all are ready.

On the contrary, the team that caused a big surprise when entering the semi-finals, U.23 Philippines, will lose its strength, when center back Rosquillo is suspended for receiving a red card in the semi-finals. In terms of both expertise and bravery, U.23 Thailand is clearly rated higher than its opponent. Although U.23 Philippines plays disciplined and resiliently, it will be difficult for them to stand firm if the "war elephant" players enter the match with high determination and achieve accuracy in the final finishing step.

This confrontation is not simply about achievements, but this is also a match where U.23 Thailand retains its honor, showing the pride of the region's leading football.
