Up to now, no media unit or TV station has owned the television copyright for the away matches of the Vietnam team. Because of the high copyright price, the media units or TV stations seem not to be very interested. Thus, Vietnamese football fans will not be able to watch the live performance of the team led by Coach Troussier in the away matches.
In the second qualifying round of the 2026 World Cup, each group has 4 teams. The teams will play in a round-robin format (home and away) to calculate ranking points. The Vietnamese team will play a total of 6 matches in the second qualifying round of the 2026 World Cup, including 3 away matches.
Coach Troussier and Vietnamese players will move to the Philippines on November 13.
Away from home, Coach Troussier's team will play their opening match on November 16 against the Philippines at Rizal Memorial Stadium (capital Manila), then face Indonesia (March 21, 2024) and Iraq (June 11, 2024). These are the three away matches of the Vietnamese team that the audience will not be able to watch live.
Meanwhile, in the matches taking place at home, fans will be able to watch Coach Troussier's team compete. FPT Play is the copyright holder of all home matches of the Vietnam team in the second qualifying round of the 2026 World Cup. The first match of the Vietnam team at My Dinh Stadium (Hanoi) will take place at 7:00 p.m. on November 21, 2023. The remaining two matches of the Vietnam team at home are against Indonesia on March 26, 2024 and the Philippines on June 6, 2024.
Match schedule and live broadcast of Vietnam national team's home matches
Currently, the Vietnamese team is still gathering at the Vietnam Youth Football Training Center ( Hanoi ). Coach Troussier will finalize the official list of 28 players to move to the Philippines on November 13. Against an opponent that is considered weaker (in theory), the Vietnamese team needs to win the opening match to create good psychological momentum and accumulate points with the goal of moving on to the third qualifying round.
