Preview - Group C: Thailand v Vietnam

Tashkent: It will be a clash of Southeast Asian titans when Thailand and Vietnam open their AFC U23 Asian Cup™ Uzbekistan 2022 Group C campaign on Thursday.

On top of regional rivalry, the two teams met in the Hanoi SEA Games less than two weeks ago, with Vietnam edging Thailand 1-0 to clinch the gold medal.

That result, however, will not linger in the minds of Thailand with head coach Worrawoot Srimaka calling up a vastly different squad for Uzbekistan 2022.
