This is considered the most important tournament for U.23 players in the continent, not only a playground for teams to affirm their talents but also an opportunity to prepare for the upcoming 2028 Paris Olympics qualifiers.

The Vietnam U.23 team has excellently won first place in Group C with impressive performance, thereby extending the streak of participating in the AFC U.23 Championship for the 6th consecutive time - a remarkable achievement for the country's youth football.

However, up to now, no media unit or television station in Vietnam has announced that it has owned the broadcasting rights for the 2026 AFC U-23 Championship in Vietnam. This makes fans worried about the possibility of watching live matches of coach Kim Sang-sik and his team on their journey to conquer the continental arena.

With the great attraction of the tournament, especially with the presence of big names such as Japan, Korea, Iran, along with the host Saudi Arabia and especially U.23 Vietnam, the copyright competition in the Vietnamese market is expected to become more exciting in the near future. Fans expect domestic media units to soon speak up to ensure the rights of a large audience to watch the tournament.
