Nielsen found that 75% of respondents in Vietnam enjoy football, the highest percentage among the 11 other Asian countries surveyed.

Indonesia ranks among the top three, with 69% of respondents expressing a fondness for football.

"Southeast Asian populations show a significant interest in football, even though no country in the region has ever reached the final of the World Cup," Nielsen noted.

This survey was conducted by Nielsen between May-November 2021 and January-April 2022. However, Nielsen did not detail the number and characteristics of respondents in each country.
