JAKARTA - The Vietnam and Thailand national teams have certainly failed to advance to the final round of the U-19 AFF Cup. Both lost to their opponents in the top four on Wednesday, July 13.

The Vietnamese national team must recognize Malaysia's superiority. They gave up with a landslide score of three goals without reply.

While Thailand is helpless in the face of Laos. The team from the White Elephant Country was defeated by a score of 0-2.

These results make the world of social media, especially Twitter, crowded. Netizens compactly called the failure of Vietnam and Thailand as karma.

Understandably, these two teams were previously accused of playing elephant football in the deciding match in the Group A phase. At that time, both Vietnam and Thailand did not insist on playing after a 1-1 draw.

As a result of this disgraceful action, the U-19 Indonesian National Team was affected. The Garuda Muda squad failed to qualify for the semifinals because they lost head to head.

"Karma is real #AFFU-19," tweeted the @fwis**** account.

"Reap what you sow...Karma is real #AFFU-19," commented @CulerIndo*****.

"Thailand vs Vietnam will play a draw for 3rd place with HAHAHAHA #AFFU-19," wrote @bukapeja****.

"Instant karma for Vietnam & Thailand #AFFU-19," commented @fahmi0****.

"Vietnam & Thailand both lost. So..@pssi no need to report this way, Thai & Vietnam both go home hahaha feel it...wkwkwk #AFFU-19," said the account @nikmal_****.

There were also netizens who invited supporters of the U-19 Indonesian National Team to watch Vietnam versus Thailand match in the fight for third place. Hopefully, it will put more pressure on both teams.

The match for third place will be held at Patriot Chandrabhaga Stadium, Bekasi, on July 15, at 15.30 western Indonesia time. On the same day, the final match between Laos and Malaysia will be held at 20.00 western Indonesia time.
