This is the sixth training match in the preparation for the 2026 AFC U17 Qualifiers, and also the first time coach Cristiano Roland and his team have tested their strength against an international opponent.

According to information from the Vietnam Football Federation, the Cambodian U17 team is currently in training, aiming to qualify for the Southeast Asian qualifying round.

To help his players get used to the intensity and nature of an international match, and test their tactical abilities, coach Cristiano Roland and the coaching staff of the two teams agreed to play in an official format of two halves, each lasting 45 minutes, with a maximum of six substitutions.

After two exciting matches, the Vietnam U17 team won convincingly 5-0. The goals were scored by Chu Ngoc Nguyen Luc and Nguyen Trong Dai Nhan in the first half, and Nguyen Minh Thuy, Nguyen Van Duong and Tran Manh Quan in the second half.

This victory helps U17 Vietnam strengthen their confidence and create more motivation for young players, while also helping the coaching staff have more basis to evaluate their performance, tactical adaptability and coordination efficiency between the lines before entering the important stage of the preparation process.

According to the plan, the two teams will continue to play the return friendly match on the morning of November 5. After this match, coach Cristiano Roland will finalize the list of 26 players to participate in the training trip in Japan from November 5 to 15. During the training period, the Vietnam U17 team is expected to play three friendly matches with opponents arranged by the Japan Football Association (JFA).

On November 16, the team will return home to complete the final preparations before entering the 2026 AFC U17 Qualifiers, taking place from November 22 to 30 in Hanoi and Hung Yen.
