Vietnam-UAE women's team match schedule today: Win to set foot in Asian finals

Against the opponent Maldives, which has a huge difference in level, the Vietnamese women's team easily won a resounding 7-0 victory. With 3 points in the opening match, the Vietnamese women's team rose to the top of Group E. At the same time, the UAE and Guam sharing points after holding each other to a 0-0 draw in the first match is also a favorable result for coach Mai Duc Chung and his team. Considering the situation in Group E, if they win another victory against the UAE in the second match, Huynh Nhu and her teammates will set foot in the 2026 Women's Asian Cup finals in Australia next year.

The Vietnamese women's team (ranked 37) is 80 places higher than the UAE in the world rankings. However, compared to the Maldives, the UAE will be a more difficult "test" in terms of quality of play, physique and defensive ability. In the opening match, Guam, which was rated higher, was unexpectedly held to a 0-0 draw by the UAE. The representative of West Asian women's football showed that they are a well-organized team in defense. With a tall physique and powerful playing style, the UAE women's team will cause many difficulties for the Vietnamese girls. Coach Mai Duc Chung and his students have certainly made a thorough analysis of the UAE. The UAE's ability to play close, defend quite tightly and counterattack quickly are points that the Vietnamese team needs to be very vigilant about.

What should the Vietnamese women's team do?

The Vietnamese girls need to coordinate more smoothly and especially improve their ability to take advantage of opportunities. This is what makes coach Mai Duc Chung worried after the match against Maldives. Good defense, taking advantage of situations to penetrate the opponent's net and win is the ultimate goal that the Vietnamese women's team is aiming for. Coach Mai Duc Chung said: "In the victory against Maldives, we created a good game. That is clear evidence of the serious preparation of the whole team. However, the players missed many opportunities, including a penalty. There was a time when the Vietnamese women's team did not play really aggressively, maybe because they were somewhat satisfied with the result. I hope the whole team will continue to maintain focus and try harder in the next matches. In which the match against UAE is extremely important to the team".
