Only in the final will the teams from the Eastern region face teams from the Western region of Asia.
Vietnamese football at the club level still has two more spots to participate in international tournaments next season, which is the spot to participate in the Southeast Asian C1 Cup. However, until the last day of the 2024-2025 season yesterday (June 29), VFF and VPF still have not decided on two representatives of Vietnamese football to participate in this tournament.
At the first Southeast Asian Cup C1 season 2024-2025, CAHN Club reached the final. Coach Mano Polking's team played extremely well in the above tournament.
