Vietnam women's team's opponent at World Cup receives shocking news

The 2023 World Cup is the first time in history that the Portuguese women's team has participated in a world -class tournament.

Portugal women's team has many difficulties in personnel situation.

But towards the end of the preparation process, the Iberian peninsula team encountered many difficulties with personnel issues.

Specifically, currently only 19/23 players that Portugal brought to the 2023 World Cup can practice normally with the whole team.

Among them, striker Kika Nazareth is having to practice according to the coaching staff's separate training plan and the possibility of returning in time to attend the 2023 World Cup is still open.

Center-back Silvia Rebelo and midfielder Fatima Pinto have not yet recovered from injury and will likely be absent from the biggest women's football festival on the planet.

In addition, captain Dolores Silva has also been absent from recent training sessions of Portugal. However, the reason has not been revealed.

To prepare for the worst case scenario, coach Francisco Neto brought two young players, Alicia Correia and Maria Alago, to New Zealand.

According to FIFA regulations, teams will be allowed to change players within 24 hours before their first match.

But both backup names cannot compare with Silvia Rebelo, Fatima Pinto or Kika Nazareth in terms of class.

Portugal's loss of players will be a good opportunity for the Vietnamese women's team to take advantage and seek their first points at the World Cup.

But even without the above names, the European team is still a formidable opponent for Huynh Nhu and her teammates.

As planned, the match between the Vietnamese women's team and Portugal will take place on July 27.
