HÀ NỘI — Việt Nam is in Group D in the qualifiers for the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Futsal Asian Cup 2024, according to the draw of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC).
Accordingly, Việt Nam will compete against South Korea, Nepal, and the tournament's hosts Mongolia.
Among the three rivals in the group, South Korea are likely to be the biggest challenge for Việt Nam.
However, the Vietnamese team led by coach Giustozzi Diego defeated South Korea 5-1 in the Asian futsal tournament last year. With that in mind, Việt Nam still hopes to lead this group.
Việt Nam is now placed seventh in the Asian men’s futsal rankings. South Korea and Mongolia rank 20th and 31st, respectively.
A total of 31 Asian futsal teams have been divided into eight groups in the 2024 AFC Futsal Asian Cup.
The participating teams will compete in a round-robin format, with the best eight group winners and seven second-placed teams progressing through to the final round, which will also serve as the qualifying round of the 2024 FIFA Futsal World Cup.
The AFC Futsal Asian Cup 2024 is scheduled to be held on October 7 - 11 in Mongolia. VNS
