Coach Tom Saintfiet is determined to defeat the Indonesian team in the final match of Group F, the second qualifying round of the 2026 World Cup in Asia.
"I hope to receive the support of Vietnamese fans. If we win against Indonesia and Vietnam wins against Iraq, Vietnam will advance. We will do our best, Indonesia is a strong team and they also want to win. The next match will be very difficult," coach Tom Saintfiet said at a press conference after the match against the Vietnamese team.
The Philippines team did not play well in Group F of the 2nd qualifying round of the 2026 World Cup in Asia. They played 5 matches and only got 1 point. However, that draw came in the match against the Indonesian team at the home stadium of Rizal Memorial. This is the reason why coach Tom Saintfiet and his team are more confident.
The spirit and attitude of the Philippine team greatly determines the fate of the Vietnamese team. Currently, the Vietnamese team is 1 point behind Indonesia on the rankings. Both teams have a goal difference of -2 but the Vietnamese team has scored 1 goal less. Quang Hai and his teammates if Iraq draws and Indonesia loses to the Philippines or if the Vietnamese team wins Iraq and Indonesia does not win against the Philippines.
Returning to the match on the evening of June 6, the Philippines team missed many opportunities and lost in the 5th minute of extra time. The away team has the right to regret this result.
Mr. Tom Saintfiet said: "I want to congratulate the Vietnam team and the atmosphere the fans brought today. I am not here to evaluate the Vietnam team but to work with the Philippines team. In this match, my team had many dangerous attacks, a draw would have been better.
I regret this result. However, I am satisfied with the performance of the whole team. The players need to learn and gain a lot of experience after today's defeat. The match at AFF Cup is still a long time away, I have not thought about it yet. What I will do now is focus on the match against Indonesia. Vietnam is a strong candidate in Southeast Asia, but the Philippines will have friendly matches to prepare for the tournament."
