AFF Cup 2026 semifinals set with Singapore facing Thailand

The semifinals for the 2026 AFF Cup have been set, featuring matchups between Singapore and Thailand, and Vietnam and Malaysia. The tournament has entered the knockout stage following the group rounds.

Singapore will face Thailand in a two-legged semifinal. The first leg is scheduled for August 15, with the second leg taking place at Rajamangala Stadium in Bangkok on August 18. Due to high demand and sold-out tickets at Jalan Besar Stadium, the Football Association of Singapore (FAS) has organized public viewing events at various locations across Singapore, including Our Tampines Hub and several community clubs. The FAS has issued a warning to fans against purchasing tickets from unauthorized scalpers, noting that they cannot guarantee ticket authenticity and that buyers may be denied entry to the stadium.

In the other semifinal bracket, defending champions Vietnam will compete against Malaysia. The matches are scheduled to take place between August 15 and August 19.
