To ensure the best preparation, the coaching staff of both teams have agreed to play behind closed doors to help the two coaches effectively test different options, with the ultimate goal being the performance and results at the AFC U23 Championship in Saudi Arabia in January 2026.

It should also be added that this generation is the younger generation of the U.23 Qatar generation that lost to U.23 Vietnam led by Coach Park Hang-seo at Changzhou 2018 (after that U.23 Qatar won the bronze medal). Before that, this West Asian representative ranked 4th at the U.23 Asia 2016 tournament.

Like U.23 Vietnam, Qatar will be participating in the highest youth tournament of Asian football for the 6th consecutive time. It is expected that U.23 Vietnam and U.23 Qatar will have 2 friendly matches in UAE, as part of the cooperation strategy between the Vietnam Football Federation and Qatar.
