Vietnam will hold a mini tournament and invite Malaysia, Thailand and Myanmar ahead of the 2023 U-20 Asian Cup Qualifiers.
From the information circulating on social media, Vietnam only invited these 3 countries and did not want to invite the U-19 Indonesian national team.
The three countries performed quite well in the 2022 AFF U-19 Cup. The U-19 Vietnam national team successfully won a bronze medal after defeating the U-19 Thailand national team in the match for third place. Meanwhile, the Malaysian U-19 national team won this edition of the event.
After the tournament was over, Vietnam U-19 did not want to rest for long. They will gather again on Friday (22/7/2022) to prepare for the 2023 U-20 Asian Cup Qualification.
The 2023 U-20 Asian Cup Qualifying Round will be held next September. The Golden Star targets to qualify for the final round of the event. They will also participate in a friendly tournament that will be held in the near future.
The international friendly tournament for the U-19 team will be held in Binh Duong, Vietnam, from 5-11 August 2022. The tournament aims to finalize the squad ahead of the 2023 U-20 Asian Cup Qualification.
Reporting from TheThao247, Tuesday (19/7/2022), a number of Southeast Asian teams will also participate there. The confirmed teams participating in the tournament are Thailand, Malaysia, and Myanmar.
The teams that are still awaiting confirmation regarding their participation are Japan and Saudi Arabia. Interestingly, the U-19 Indonesian National Team did not participate in the tournament.
In fact, the friendly tournament was good enough to measure the strength of the Indonesia U-19 national team ahead of competing in the U-20 2023 Asian Cup Qualifiers. However, Shin Tae-yong’s squad is said to only have training camps (TC) in Jakarta and Europe.
The Indonesian public certainly hopes that the Garuda Muda Squad will be able to qualify for the finals of the 2023 U-20 Asian Cup.
Although there is no interest because it has definitely qualified for the 2023 U-20 World Cup as the host, Indonesia can at least measure its strength against other countries. established countries in Asia.
