The men's football tournament at the 2017 SEA Games was held from 14 to 29 August in Malaysia in August 2017. In this tournament, all 11 Southeast Asian teams played in the men's competition. [1] In addition to the host city of Kuala Lumpur, matches were also played in Shah Alam and Selayang. 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). [2]
Thailand won the tournament for the third straight time and a record-extending sixteenth time total. [3] [4] [5] [6]

The following eleven teams participated for the competition.
The tournament was held in four venues across three cities:
The Kuala Lumpur Football Stadium was one of the original venue for the football tournament, until it was replaced by Selayang Municipal Council Stadium in July 2017 due to unsatisfactory conditions in the stadium renovations. [7] The Bukit Jalil National Stadium were also originally planned for the final matches before it was changed to Shah Alam Stadium due to several factors. [8]
The men's tournament was an under-22 international tournament (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. [1]
The draw for the tournament was held on 8 July 2017, 10:00 MST (UTC+8), at the Renaissance Kuala Lumpur Hotel, Kuala Lumpur. The 11 teams in the men's tournament were drawn into two groups of five and six teams. The teams were seeded into four pots based on their performances in the previous Southeast Asian Games. [9] [10]
The hosts Malaysia were automatically assigned into position A1, and the defending champions Thailand were automatically assigned into position B1.
