After a training on February 17, some members of the team showed signs of fever. All members then were undergone rapid COVID-19 testing. As a result, four players and a coach had suspected positive tests for coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. They were quarantined immediately.

Viet Nam will play against Singapore on February 19 at the Prince Stadium in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.

Earlier, Indonesia and Myanmar withdrew from the 2022 AFF U23 Championship as many players tested positive for COVID-19.
