The Philippine Azkals were dealt a tough hand in the Asean Football Federation (AFF) Suzuki Cup draw at the Hotel Mulia Senayan in Jakarta, Indonesia on Wednesday afternoon.
In the qualifying round of the AFF Suzuki Cup 2016 held in Myanmar, Vietnam beat rivals Myanmar, Cambodia and Malaysia.

With the exception of Brunei/Timor Leste, it's basically the same group in the 2016 edition where the Philippines failed to qualify after finishing third in the group stage.
Group A of the tournament consists of Vietnam, Malaysia, Myanmar, Cambodia, and Laos.
