After an enthralling group stage across the span of five months, the semifinal lineup for the 2024-25 ASEAN Club Championship -- officially know as the Shopee Cup -- is set.
With Group A going down to the wire, it was BG Pathum United (Thailand) who managed to finish top and a point clear of PSM Makassar (Indonesia), who ultimately reached the last four with a three-point buffer between them and the rest of the pack.
Group B saw Công An Hà Nội (Vietnam) really set themselves apart from the other contenders as they were the only side to book their semifinal berth with a game to spare, before finishing the stage as the only side with a perfect record of five wins.
With three teams originally in the running to join them from Group B, it was Buriram United (Thailand) who held their nerve on Match Day 5 to consolidate a second-place finish.
After a two-month hiatus, the tournament returns in April with CAHN taking on PSM while BGPU and Buriram clash in an all-Thai League 1 affair.
