(Baonghean.vn) - This morning (October 15), the 30th SEA Games Organizing Committee held a draw for the men's football group and the final result put U22 Vietnam in a group that was considered not easy.
In this draw, U22 Vietnam does not have many advantages because it is only ranked in group 3 due to poor results from the previous SEA Games.
The lucky draw has put U22 Vietnam in group B with the participation of 6 teams including Thailand, Indonesia, Laos, Singapore and Brunei.
