" VFF will create the best conditions for U17 Vietnam to train abroad. In addition, the team is in the process of stabilizing the coaching staff and athletes. The goal is to pass the group stage of the 2025 AFC U17 Championship ," said Mr. Tran Anh Tu - Vice President of VFF.
Vietnam U17 will qualify for the 2025 AFC U17 Championship as one of the five best second-placed teams in the qualifying round. Coach Cristiano Roland and his team have a great chance to qualify for the FIFA U17 World Cup for the first time in history.
U17 Vietnam aims to attend the World Cup.
At the 2025 AFC U17 Championship, 16 teams are divided into 4 groups of 4 teams each and will compete in a round robin to find the top 2 teams from each group to enter the quarter-finals. The 8 teams that enter the quarter-finals will automatically qualify for the 2025 AFC U17 Championship. In fact, if they are lucky in the AFC U17 Championship draw, it is not impossible for Vietnam U17 to pass the group stage.
Meanwhile, the Vietnamese women's futsal team just defeated Thailand in the final match of the 2024 Southeast Asian women's futsal tournament. In January 2025, Thanh Hang and her teammates participated in the Asian women's futsal qualifying round. The Vietnamese women's futsal team is in Group D with Myanmar, Taiwan (China) and Macau. The Asian futsal finals are the basis for finding teams to participate in the Women's Futsal World Cup.
Mr. Tu provided information: "The Vietnamese women's futsal team will gather again from the end of November. Regarding the force, there are 16 players who played in the last tournament, including 9 from Thai Son Nam Ho Chi Minh City, 7 from other teams such as Hanoi, Vietnam Minerals, Phong Phu Ha Nam,... Some people gathered late because they had to play on an 11-a-side pitch.
The Vietnamese women's futsal team can go abroad for training or invite opponents to play friendly matches, depending on the draw results. We are ranked 11th in the world, hopefully we can avoid strong teams like Japan and Iran. It is not easy to get to the World Cup finals, but we still aim to go to the World Cup ."
