Ho Chi Minh City Women's Club aims for second victory at "Asian Cup C1"

VHO - After the victory on the opening day, Ho Chi Minh City Women's Club is expected to continue to win all 3 points in the second match of Group A of the 2025/26 Asian Women's Club Championship, a playground considered the "Asian Cup 1" of women's football teams.

In the second match of Group A of the 2025/26 Asian Women's Club Championship, Ho Chi Minh City Women's Club will face Lion City Sailors FC (Singapore) at Thong Nhat Stadium at 7:00 p.m. on November 16.

Coach Nguyen Hong Pham is cautious before the match.

Previously, on the opening day of November 13, Huynh Nhu and her teammates won dramatically 1-0 when facing Stallion Laguna FC (Philippines), while Lion City Sailors FC lost to Melbourne City (Australia) with a heavy score of 0-5.

Speaking at the press conference before the match with Lion City Sailors FC, coach Nguyen Hong Pham was cautious when saying that the home team was not subjective and had great respect for the opponent.

Coach Nguyen Hong Pham affirmed that the HCMC Women's Club continues to maintain its traditional spirit: "We always respect every match and prepare very seriously. All participating teams are strong.

Normally, the first match is always difficult. The lesson from last year when we lost heavily to India shows that if we don't start well, the comeback will be very difficult. Therefore, we are not subjective and have great respect for Lion City Sailors."

Ho Chi Minh City Women's Club is gaining confidence after winning on the opening day.

Regarding Huynh Nhu's physical condition, coach Nguyen Hong Pham confirmed that Huynh Nhu and the whole team have had enough time to rest.

“She can absolutely play in tomorrow’s match. We enter every match with the desire to win. Hopefully the weather will be nice so that both teams can give a good match,” said coach Nguyen Hong Pham.

Also present at the press conference, player Chau Ngoc Bich strongly affirmed his determination: "If I get to play, I will use 100% of my strength to contribute to the team."

Meanwhile, Coach Yeong Sheau Shyan of Lion City Sailors FC commented on his opponent: "Ho Chi Minh City Women's Club is a strong team, with good physical strength and high-intensity playing style.

The HCM City Women's Club players often play directly. Based on this analysis, we will have reasonable tactics to deal with the home team's fast playing style."

Ho Chi Minh City Women's Club will soon enter the quarterfinals if they beat their opponent from Singapore and Stallion Laguna FC cannot overcome Melbourne City.
