In the second round of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers in Asia, Vietnam is in Group F with Iraq and the Philippines. The remaining team passed the first round in the match between Indonesia and Brunei.
Indonesia team easily won against underdog Brunei
With a 6-0 victory in the first leg on the evening of October 12, the Indonesian team is almost certain to advance. The goals of the Indonesian team were scored by strikers Dimas Drajad (scored 3 goals), Ramadhan Sananta (scored 2 goals) and 1 goal by defender Rizky Ridho.
The second leg of the Indonesian team will be played at Hassanal Bolkiah Stadium against Brunei on October 17. However, with a big win in the first leg and a much higher level, coach Shin Tae-yong's team will find it difficult to lose the ticket to the next round that is in their hands.
In the remaining matches of the first leg of the first round of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers in Asia, Southeast Asian teams such as Myanmar beat Macau 5-1; Singapore beat Guam 2-1; Laos drew 1-1 with Nepal and Cambodia drew 0-0 with Pakistan.

In the second round on November 21, the Vietnamese team will return home to face Iraq, while Indonesia will host the Philippines. The Vietnamese and Indonesian teams will have two consecutive matches in March 2024, with the first leg on March 21 and the second leg on March 26. In June 2024, the Vietnamese team will face the Philippines (June 6) and Iraq (June 11).
