The Laos U17 football team played their first match against Iran on October 5 in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, and lost with a score of 0-3.

Since Iran is a stronger team who won several matches in recent tournaments, it was no surprise to football fans that Laos was unable to win their first game of the AFC U17 Asia Cup 2023 Qualifiers.

Laos has a good start and played well in the first half when they defended quite well and also had a chance to score a few goals, which they unfortunately missed. However, they could not defend their goal line for the entire ninety minutes.

An hour into the game, Iran U17 players scored their first goal in the second half. The second and third goals came in later in the 82nd minute and extra time respectively.

One football fan commented that the Lao U17 team did their best, but at this stage could not match up to the skills of one of the best football teams in Asia.
