The Malaysian press also acknowledged this difference. Makan Bola headlined: “Vietnam women’s team is too strong, Malaysia suffers defeat”. In the article, the author emphasized: “The Malaysian women’s team hopes to create a surprise in the match with the Vietnam women’s team, a strong candidate for the 33rd SEA Games gold medal.

However, the reality on the field showed that the Vietnamese women's team was too strong for Malaysia. After 90 minutes, Hai Yen and her teammates scored 7 goals against Malaysia. This result caused Malayan Tigress (the nickname of the Malaysian women's team) to fall to the bottom of the table.

Sinarharian newspaper wrote: “Malaysian women’s team had a bad start at SEA Games 33”. The newspaper wrote: “The Malaysian women’s team started their SEA Games campaign with a 0-7 defeat to the Vietnamese women’s team. Hai Yen scored in the 4th minute, almost destroying Malaysia’s hopes of creating a surprise.

After that, the Vietnamese strikers scored 6 more goals against Malayan Tigress, including Thai Thi Thao who scored a hat-trick. The Vietnamese women's team showed that they are a strong candidate for the SEA Games championship.

Bharian newspaper emphasized: “The Malaysian women’s team could not react in time to the terrible pressure of the Vietnamese women’s team. The opponent possessed superior strength and easily scored 7 goals against the team of coach Joel Cornelli.”

After the victory over Malaysia, the Vietnamese women's team will face the Philippines in the second match on December 8. In the opening match, the Philippines lost 1-2 to Myanmar and were forced into a must-win situation against coach Mai Duc Chung's team.
