Vietnam had a 0-1 deficit at the 54th minute. Afterwards, the host played with one player fewer when goalkeeper Nguyen Manh was sent off due to retaliation. Vietnam took 2-1 lead thanks to goals made by Van Thanh anh Minh Tuan in the last minutes, taking the game into extra-time. Indonesia’s Lestusen scored an equalizer to bring Indonesia to the final with 4-3 aggregate.
 
Vietnam will compete for bronze with Myanmar or Thailand which will play the remaining semi-final on December 8.
