(Dan Tri) - The Vietnamese team has finalized its competition plan for next March. Accordingly, before the match against Laos on March 25, coach Kim Sang Sik's team will play a friendly match against Cambodia.
The match between Vietnam and Laos on March 25 is part of the third qualifying round of the 2027 Asian Cup. Before this match, coach Kim Sang Sik's team (Korean) will play a friendly match with Cambodia on March 19.

Both matches against Laos and Cambodia will take place at Binh Duong Stadium. These are all matches on FIFA Days (a series of days when the World Football Federation allows teams to do international duty, according to a unified schedule), so it will be easy to gather troops with the teams.
The match between Vietnam and Cambodia on March 19 will be an important preparation before coach Kim Sang Sik's team enters the Asian Cup qualifying campaign, starting the qualifying campaign with the match against Laos as mentioned above.
The Laos team was once the defeated team of the Vietnam team at the AFF Cup 2024. At that time, the Vietnam team beat Laos 4-1 in the group stage, in our opening match at the Southeast Asian tournament, on December 9, 2024.
As for the Cambodian team, the team from the land of pagodas is not in the same group as the Vietnamese team at the AFF Cup 2024, so we will not face them in the Southeast Asian football championship.

Cambodia is a team that is considered to have made a lot of progress in the region. At the AFF Cup 2024, this team caused a big surprise when they held Malaysia to a 2-2 draw in the group stage, and only lost 2-3 to Thailand right on Thailand's home field.
It is expected that the Vietnamese team will gather from mid-March, after round 16 of the 2024-2025 V-League. In this gathering, we will not have the services of striker Nguyen Xuan Son and right-back Ho Tan Tai, as both are seriously injured.
In addition, striker Nguyen Van Toan and goalkeeper Nguyen Dinh Trieu are also not sure if they will join the Vietnam national team in March. Although Van Toan and Dinh Trieu's injuries are less severe than those of Xuan Son and Tuan Tai, they are still quite complicated.
