In the final round of the group stage of the U17 Asian Cup, Japan in Group D will play Uzbekistan and India will play Vietnam. In the 44th minute, Vietnam broke the deadlock and led 1-0. Unfortunately, Vietnam was unable to score the second goal. In the 70th minute of the second half, India tied the scoreline, and the two teams finally shook hands 1-1.
