Confrontation history between Vietnam National Team and Indonesian National Team before the 2024 Asian Cup
As the two leading teams in Southeast Asia, Vietnam and Indonesia have met many times. Recently, Vietnamese and Indonesian football meet at least once a year. At the national team level, the two teams also meet many times, twice in 2023 alone. Because they understand each other so well, the matches between Vietnam and Indonesia are often very close, fiercely contested and few goals are scored.
The evidence is that in the last 10 meetings, up to 6 matches ended in a draw. In the 4 times there were win-lose results, Vietnam won 3 times and Indonesia won once. In the most recent match at AFF Cup 2022, Vietnam National Team defeated Indonesia National Team 2-0 with a double from striker Nguyen Tien Linh.
