U22 Vietnam brought to China the strongest squad, including the pillars that shone in the U22 Southeast Asia 2025 and the U22 Asia Qualifiers 2026. Many players in this group were called up to the Vietnam National Team, and were identified as the core team heading to the 33rd SEA Games at the end of the year.
On the home side, U22 China called up 16/30 players born in 2005 to aim for the 2025 Olympics. With a clear youth orientation, their force is significantly different in age compared to U22 Vietnam. According to the assessment from the source data, U22 Vietnam is slightly better than the home team in this match.
Notable Highlights
- U22 Vietnam entered the tournament with a stable squad from the two recent tournaments, creating an advantage in team chemistry.
- China U22 prioritizes the 2005 age group for the 2025 Olympic target, showing a long-term development orientation.
- In previous confrontations, U22 Vietnam often had good results against U22 China.

Tournament:Panda Cup 2025
Uzbekistan U22 announced the list of players participating in the Panda Cup on November 8, a big change compared to the squad participating in the CFA Team China tournament in March. Except for head coach Haidarov, the players called up this time are all in the 2005 age group, eligible for the men's football event at the Los Angeles Olympics 2028. This is a step in long-term preparation for the Olympic arena.
The U22 Korean team still has many notable names, mainly playing in the K-League and 2 players playing in Europe. However, their recent form has not been good as they lost both friendly matches against Saudi Arabia.
Quick information
- Uzbekistan keeps coach Haidarov, but refreshes the force towards U23 for the upcoming Olympic stage.
- South Korea have a wide range of personnel at home and in Europe, but need to improve results after a string of unsatisfactory friendlies.
A sign of respect for U22 Vietnam
Ahead of the 2025 Panda Cup, U22 Vietnam has received respect from its opponents. According to relevant information from the source, the coaches of the Chinese and Uzbekistan teams are particularly wary of U22 Vietnam, reflecting the position that the young Vietnamese players have built through recent tournaments.
Therefore, today's two matches are not only a preparation for long-term goals (SEA Games 33, Olympics), but also a quality test for teams at the U22 level at the present time.
