## History

It was played from 19 August 2004 until 2011 and known firstly as **Agribank Cup** as a replacement to the Vietnam Independence Cup.[1] In 2008, it was renamed due to the withdrawal of the [Vietnam Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development](/source/Vietnam_Bank_for_Agriculture_and_Rural_Development) (Agribank) as the main sponsor.[2] In 2012, [Vietnam Football Federation](/source/Vietnam_Football_Federation) (VFF) announced that the competition would no longer be played.[3] It was then revived again in 2018 as **Vinaphone Cup** following the new sponsorship from [Vietnam Posts and Telecommunications Group](/source/Vietnam_Posts_and_Telecommunications_Group) (VNPT).

The 2021 edition was cancelled due to the [COVID-19 pandemic in Vietnam](/source/COVID-19_pandemic_in_Vietnam) before being held again in [2022](/source/2022_VFF_Tri-Nations_Series).

### October 2024 cancellation

Main article: [2024 VFF Tri-Nations Series](/source/2024_VFF_Tri-Nations_Series)

VFF invited [India](/source/India_national_football_team) and [Lebanon](/source/Lebanon_national_football_team) to join the tournament. However, on 3 October 2024, Lebanon announced their withdrawal from the tournament following the [2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon](/source/2024_Israeli_invasion_of_Lebanon).[17] Due to lack of time, the Vietnam Football Federation was unable to invite a replacement team and decided to cancel the tournament. The match between Vietnam and India was maintained as a [friendly](/source/Exhibition_game) game and was rescheduled to be held on 12 October 2024.

## Controversy

Ever since the inauguration of the Agribank football tournament in 2004 there has always been controversies surrounding the organisation of the tournament.[18] The most recurring issue is the lack of quality teams partaking in the tournament; for the first edition of the tournament [Thailand](/source/Thailand) sent a 'selection team' consisted of local league players unknown to Vietnamese fans, instead of the national team as requested by the VFF.[18]

Japan and Bahrain both entered their youth teams in the 2005 and 2006 tournaments respectively, and on each occasion the invited teams lacked the quality that was demanded by the organisers.[18] Due to the expressed disappointments of their Vietnamese organisers in 2006, the [Bahrain Football Association](/source/Bahrain_Football_Association) (BFA) sent a letter stating their reasons for not sending a full-strength team to the tournament.[4] For the 2007 edition of the Agribank Cup, Thailand once again declined an invitation to take part thus Zimbabwe was invited to fill the gap left by Thailand.

Due to the combination of factors, such as the lack of quality teams and the deficiencies of the VFF as the tournament organiser, Agribank announced that it would stop sponsoring the tournament in 2008.[18]

## Notes
