🇻🇳 VIETNAM COMPLETE A HISTORIC TREBLE IN 2025 🏆🏆🏆

The gold medal at SEA Games 2025 capped off a truly historic year for Vietnamese football, as Vietnam dominated Southeast Asia at both senior and U23 levels.

✨ A clean sweep of regional titles in 2025:

🏆 ASEAN Championship
🏆 SEA Games
🏆 ASEAN U23 Championship

🔥 What makes it even more remarkable: all three titles were won by defeating the host nation in the final.

Beat 🇹🇭 Thailand in the ASEAN Championship final (05/01)
Beat 🇹🇭 Thailand in the SEA Games 2025 final (18/12)
Beat 🇮🇩 Indonesia in the ASEAN U23 Championship final

A golden year. A golden generation. Vietnam stand on top of Southeast Asian football. 🌟⚽
