If the U-23 Indonesian national team wins against Malaysia, the result will guarantee the top position to remain in hand. Garuda Muda can even end the group phase with a perfect score.
If you can only draw, Indonesia's position will not be moved from the top because it collects seven points. This number is considered sufficient to ensure a place because the maximum points that the Philippines can get are only six. In this situation, Malaysia's chances of qualifying for the closed semifinals are closed.
The last scenario, if Gerald Vanenburg's team loses, then the chance to the semifinals will be difficult. If Indonesia U-23 lost to Malaysia and the Philippines won over Brunei Darussalam, three teams had six points.
To determine the standings in the group, when two or three teams have the same points, the tournament regulations used are head-to-head between teams involved, then the goal difference.
