Vietnam Women's vs Indonesia Women's
The Vietnamese women's team was drawn into a "group of death," but once they overcame the difficulties, the reward for coach Mai Duc Chung and his players was very sweet. Facing a much weaker opponent like Indonesia, the ticket to the final is almost certainly in the hands of the Golden Star Warriors.
Doubts and anxieties arose when the Vietnamese women's team suffered a heartbreaking 0-1 defeat at the hands of the Philippines in the second match of Group B. To advance, Bich Thuy and her teammates must win against Myanmar in a crucial match.
Living up to the expectations of their home fans, Coach Mai Duc Chung's team started the match with great enthusiasm and only needed the first 15 minutes to decide the fate of the game. Ngan Thi Van Su and Bich Thuy scored consecutively, helping their team defeat their direct opponent and proudly advance to the semi-finals as group winners.
No longer rushing and being impatient, as in the previous encounter with the Philippines, Thai Thi Thao, Diem My, Hai Yen... showed a more composed and level-headed performance. As a result, the Vietnamese women's team had little difficulty neutralizing their opponents' attempts to score an equalizer.
It's easy to see that coach Mai Duc Chung and his players are on a journey quite similar to the SEA Games two years ago. Back then, the Golden Star Warriors also defeated Myanmar, lost to the Philippines, and only advanced from the group stage thanks to tie-breaking criteria. In the semi-finals, against Cambodia, who were weaker in every aspect, the golden girls of Vietnamese football easily won 4-0.
For their part, the Indonesian women's team was clearly too weak compared to the other three teams in the semi-finals. Thanks to being in an easy group with only the formidable Thailand, while Cambodia withdrew, the team under coach Akira Higashiyama only needed to beat Singapore 3-1 to secure their place in the next round.
To gauge the strength of the Indonesian women's team, one can look at their head-to-head record against the host nation. The Indonesian girls suffered a crushing 0-8 defeat. However, coach Mai Duc Chung remains cautious because their opponents also possess tall, naturalized players and a playing style that favors long balls and aerial passes, quite similar to the Philippines women's team.
Nevertheless, the difference in class between the two sides remains starkly evident. The Indonesian women's team is far from reaching the level of the Philippine women's team, and in their most recent encounter at the Southeast Asian Women's Football Championship in August, the Vietnamese women's team also convincingly defeated the Indonesian women's team by 7 goals to nil.
