Coach Akira Ijiri shared: "There are still many things that have not been achieved in the match, we need to learn more. As for the Vietnamese U.20 women's team, it's good that we are ranked No. 1 in Southeast Asia, but the goal is to be in the top 4 in Asia. Currently, China, Korea, Japan and Australia are the top 4 teams on the continent. The last match against the Australian U.20 women's team, we want to win to get into the top 4."
Voted as the best player of the match with a double goal against the Lebanese U.20 women's team, Ngoc Minh Chuyen was happy: “I feel very happy when I score. But it was not until the end of the first half that we were able to take advantage of the opportunity and play more comfortably to overcome difficulties. The atmosphere in the stands of Viet Tri Stadium (Phu Tho) also helps the team to be much more confident. Thank you to the fans who have always supported and watched the team.”

The head coach of the Lebanese U.20 women's team – Joanna Hamza said: “In my opinion, this is a match where the Lebanese team played with enthusiasm and fought with tenacity. However, there has not been a positive outcome for us. For the Vietnam U.20 women's team, this was a good match and helped them get 3 points to move on. I also wish the U.20 Vietnam women's team good results in the remaining match. Both Vietnam and Australia women's U.20 women's teams are highly organized, playing simple to quickly convert into goals. I predict the two teams will have a draw result."
