According to information from the Vietnam Football Federation, immediately after the two victories of the Vietnam U22 team and the Vietnam women's team in the group stage of the SEA Games 33 on the evening of December 11th, Mr. Tran Quoc Tuan - President of the Federation - conveyed the congratulations of Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh to both teams for achieving important victories. The Prime Minister congratulated both teams for giving their all for the national flag and for the country.

The Prime Minister acknowledged the willpower, courage, and determination of both teams, and encouraged coaches Mai Duc Chung and Kim Sang Sik to prepare well for the semi-final match.

This is a huge source of moral support for the players and coaching staff on their journey to achieve the highest goal in the tournament.

To promptly boost the morale of the teams, the Standing Committee of the Vietnam Football Federation decided to award 700 million VND to the Vietnam women's national team and 600 million VND to the Vietnam U22 national team.

President of the Vietnam Football Federation, Tran Quoc Tuan, was present in Thailand and watched the women's team's match, as both Vietnamese national football teams played at the same time.

Mr. Tran Quoc Tuan said it was a joy and a source of happiness that both teams had successfully achieved their goals from the group stage. With their efforts to overcome difficulties and pressure, both teams secured victories in crucial matches. The fact that both teams led 2-0 in the first half and topped the group was a very important factor for the subsequent calculations in the semi-final match.

However, with very important matches ahead, Mr. Tran Quoc Tuan noted that the Vietnamese football teams need to continue to focus on preparation and perform well in order to gradually realize their goals.
