Vietnam’s national team arrived in Jakarta on the afternoon of September 23 after gathering in Hanoi and taking a roughly four-hour flight from Nội Bài. After clearing the airport, the squad boarded a bus for the approximately 160-kilometre trip to Bandung, where its FIFA ASEAN Cup 2026 Group B matches will be played.
Midfielder Võ Hoàng Minh Khoa was called up to replace the injured Nguyễn Quang Hải and flew directly from Ho Chi Minh City to join the squad, the report said. The Jakarta arrival moves Vietnam from its domestic camp into tournament preparations and follows the earlier squad-change news.
