AFC uses Thailand's shocking defeat as a warning to Vietnam's women's team at the World Cup

The Vietnam women's team is one of Asia's representatives participating in the 2023 World Cup.

Vietnam women's team will face many difficulties at the 2023 World Cup.

In her first appearance at the biggest women's football festival on the planet, Huynh Nhu and her teammates fell into an extremely difficult group with the presence of the US, the Netherlands and Portugal.

Recently, AFC published an article to evaluate the relative strength of the teams in the same group as Vietnam women's team.

It is worth mentioning that in the article, AFC mentioned Thailand's crushing 0-13 defeat to the US at the 2019 World Cup as a warning to the Vietnamese women's team.

“The opening match against the defending champions, the United States, will be very difficult for the Vietnamese women’s team. Perhaps we still remember Thailand’s 0-13 loss to the United States at the 2019 World Cup,” AFC wrote on its homepage.

Assessing the strength of the American team, AFC admitted: "The US is a superpower in women's football. Their goal is the third consecutive championship."

Although highly appreciating the US, AFC did not forget to give compliments to coach Mai Duc Chung and his team.

“Vietnam is aiming for its first 11-a-side World Cup thanks to its impressive performance at the 2022 Asian Cup.

Coach Mai Duc Chung's team has made history. This coach also declared that he will not be afraid of any opponent.

The brightest star of the Vietnam team is Huynh Nhu, who is playing for Lank FC of Portugal," AFC commented.

On July 14, the Vietnamese women's team lost 0-9 to Spain.

According to the schedule, Huynh Nhu and her teammates will play the opening match of the 2023 World Cup against the US on July 22, 5 days later they will face Portugal and face the Netherlands on August 1.
