    Vietnam made another two substitutions as the team aim for another goal.

Both Vietnam and Thailand have secured their spots in the semifinals, and the last game of group B is for the top spot.

Vietnam are having nine points like Thailand but placed second due to having a smaller goal difference.

If Vietnam win, they will take the top spot and face the second-placed team of group A Myanmar in the semifinals.

Any other results would put Vietnam in a matchup with Indonesia, who topped group A.
