Rain Pours Down on Pakansari Stadium Ahead of Indonesia vs. Vietnam AFF Cup Match

Rain poured down on Pakansari Stadium in Bogor, West Java, just an hour before the AFF Cup 2026 Group A match between Indonesia and Vietnam kicked off on Monday evening.

Despite the downpour, the weather did not dampen the spirits of the Indonesian supporters, who continued to arrive in large numbers. Most fans wore red jerseys, filling the stadium to cheer on the national team, Garuda.

This match is crucial for Indonesia, who have won their previous two games against Cambodia (5-1) and Timor Leste (3-0). With six points, they sit second in Group A, one point behind leaders Singapore. A victory against Vietnam would guarantee Indonesia a place in the semifinals.

Vietnam, also known as The Golden Star Warriors, has had an impressive run with a 7-0 win over Timor Leste and a goalless draw against Singapore. They currently have four points, making this match a high-stakes encounter for both teams vying for a semifinal spot.
