After defeating Brunei 14-0, the Vietnamese futsal team won 9 full points after 3 matches in Group A of the 2024 Southeast Asian Futsal Championship. Therefore, coach Diego Raul Giustozzi and his team can comfortably watch the "big battle" between Thailand and Malaysia at 6 p.m. with a comfortable mindset. If Malaysia cannot beat Thailand, the Vietnamese futsal team will be in the semi-finals one round early.

There was no surprise at the futsal stadium in Nakhon Ratchasima. Facing the overwhelming strength of host Thailand, Malaysia had to surrender with a score of 1-3.

In the second half, the "Tigers" played hard and scored 1 goal, but still lost 1-3 overall when they pushed their formation high to take risks in attacking. Similar to the match against Vietnam, Malaysia tried hard, but had to accept defeat against a high-class opponent with a better formation.
