The match between Ho Chi Minh City Club and Yangon United at the AFC Cup 2020 will be changed to another venue due to the corona virus.

According to the previous schedule that Sports442 has reported, Ho Chi Minh City Club will welcome Yangon United on the Thong Nhat Stadium at 5:00PM on Feb 11. However, due to the corona virus, the General Department of Vietnam Sports Administration issued a request to suspend sports activities in February.

Therefore, the Asian Football Federation (AFC) has decided that Chung Hae-seong and Ho Chi Minh City will not play at home but travel to Myanmar. This decision has a significant impact on the training and preparation of the home team.

Another representative of Vietnam, Quang Ninh Club, had to travel to Ceres Negros's pitch, Bacolod, Philippines. It was not until the return leg for the land team to play at home.
