On December 12, AFF Cup 2024 continues to take place the second series of matches in Group B with two matches between the Philippines team and Myanmar team, Indonesia team and Laos team. In this match, the Vietnamese team does not compete, so there is a risk of losing the top spot in the rankings to the Indonesian team.
In Manila, the Philippine team created an overwhelming offensive position against Myanmar but was the team that conceded first. In the 72nd minute, the home team scored a goal to equalize the score 1-1 but could not achieve the goal of winning all 3 points. With the same point, the Philippines and Myanmar share second and third place.
In the remaining match, the Laos team “transformed” compared to the 1-4 loss to the Vietnam team in the first match. Despite playing away from home and facing a much stronger opponent, Indonesia, Lao players suddenly scored the opening goal. Indonesia scored a 1-1 equalizer, but the Laos team took a spectacular 2-1 lead. It was difficult for Indonesia to find victory when Marselino Ferdinan received a red card in the 69th minute, but the island team still had a 3-2 lead. The surprise did not stop when the excellent Laos team scored a 3-3 equalizer, thereby gaining a valuable point.

Although the Lao team held to a draw, with 1 point, the Indonesian team gained a total of 4 points, temporarily taking the top spot in the rankings of the Vietnamese team (3 points). The situation in Group B becomes more attractive as the opportunity to win tickets to the next round is still equally divided among all 5 teams. On December 15, the Vietnamese team will face the Indonesian team at Viet Tri’s home field (Phu Tho) while the Laos team returns home to welcome the Philippine team.
