The football tournament at the 2017 SEA Games was in Kuala Lumpur. In addition matches were played in Kuala Lumpur, Shah Alam and Selayang.[1]
Associations affiliated with FIFA might send teams to participate in the tournament. Men's teams were restricted to under-22 players (born on or after 1 January 1995) with a maximum of three overage players allowed, while there were no age restrictions on women's teams.
In the men's tournament, Thailand continued their title as a defending champion after they won their sixteenth SEA Games men's gold medal in the tournament by beating Malaysia with a score 1–0,[2] while Indonesia got bronze for the fourth time after beating Myanmar with a score 3–1.[3] Meanwhile, in the women's tournament, Vietnam pipped Thailand for their fifth SEA Games women's gold medal after they scored a 6–0 win over Malaysia in a round-robin format that subsequently gave them a superior goal difference.[4][5] Myanmar defended the bronze after losing to the two favourites: Vietnam and Thailand.[6]

The Kuala Lumpur Football Stadium was one of the original venue for the football tournament, until it was replaced by Selayang Stadium in July 2017 due to unsatisfactory conditions in the stadium renovations.[7] The Bukit Jalil National Stadium were also originally planned for the men's football final matches before it was changed to Shah Alam Stadium due to several factors.[8]
