Cambodia and Indonesia are through to the semi-finals of the AFF Women’s Cup 2026 at the Kuala Lumpur Football Stadium.
The Cambodian side checked into the last four after their came back from a goal down to beat Timor-Leste 3-1 in their first game of Group B.. Timor Leste had also lost their opening game to Indonesia earlier last week and with the second defeat were eliminated from competition.
Juleica Da Costa had given Timor-Leste the lead after two minutes, but Cambodia were just irresistible following goals from Sovanmony Heng in the 29th minute, Sapheourn Chhit (36th), and Serysitha Vibol (90th+6).
The win for Cambodia meant that they will have the decisive tie against Indonesia to decide the Group B winner. Ironically Indonesia had beaten Cambodia for the inaugural title two years ago.
In Group A, Laos were held to their second draw following their 1-1 deadlock against Singapore.
As they did in their first game of the group against Malaysia, the Laotian girls took the lead through Anna Keoonsi in the 41st minute before Singapore replied with a Danelle Tan finish in the 47th minute.
The final match of the group between Singapore and Malaysia will decide which two of the three teams will progress to the next round.
