Saudi Arabia have lost 3-1 to Vietnam in their second match of the 2022 AFC Futsal Asian Cup, which took place at Sheikh Jaber Al-Ahmad Hall in Kuwait on Friday.

A win for the Green Falcons would have ensured progress from Group D to the quarter-finals after they had launched their campaign on Monday with 2-1 win over Japan.

The 16-team tournament kicked off on Sept. 27 and will conclude on Oct. 8.

Vietnam’s goals came from Nguyen Anh Duy (12 minutes), Chau Doan Phat (28), and Nguyen Minh Tri (40), while Hammoud Al-Dahan scored in the 30th minute for Saudi Arabia.

Group D’s other match on Friday night saw Japan beat South Korea 6-0 at the venue.

Vietnam lead the group standings with six points after two rounds, with Saudi second on three points. Also with the three points, but trailing the Falcons on goal difference, are Japan, while South Korea are bottom with no points.

The next group matches will take place tomorrow with Saudi facing South Korea and Vietnam taking on Japan.
