Midfielder Bich Thuy suppressed her sadness: 'The more difficult the situation, the more miracles the Vietnamese women's team can create'

Midfielder Nguyen Thi Bich Thuy confidently emphasized that even though the Vietnamese women's team is in a difficult position, they still have enough courage to prove their ability and create a miracle in the decisive match against Myanmar at 4 p.m. on December 11.

Bich Thuy and the entire Vietnamese women's team will rise up strongly to defeat Myanmar.

Bich Thuy answered an interview at Sansuk training ground on the morning of December 9: "The loss to the Philippines yesterday afternoon really made the whole team quite sad because we lost points so regrettably. Football is sometimes cruel like that. But the whole team and I tried to forget, encouraged each other to pull ourselves together, and look forward to the match against Myanmar."

According to Bich Thuy, the Vietnamese women's team seems to be "nemesis", so every time they meet the Philippines, even though they play ahead of their opponents, they still lose the ball in the air. "This happens repeatedly because we did not do well and were unlucky. We do not blame the referee, like in the situation where everyone asked about Thanh Nha's shot hitting the Philippine defender's hand in the penalty area. In my opinion, the referee also finds it difficult to make a decision in a split second if the viewing angle is not good. As the coach said, if we lose, we have already lost, there is no need to analyze that situation again, we have to look forward."

Bich Thuy commented: "Myanmar is a strong opponent. They have made a lot of progress in recent times, such as being runners-up in the AFF Cup 2025 recently. The fact that they beat the Philippines also shows the ability and bravery of this team. Meeting them with only one path to win will be difficult, but I told everyone that the more difficult the situation, the more Vietnamese women's football can create miracles. My team and I will try harder and be more determined to have a good match, to win for the country."

Many times the Vietnamese women's team has won against Myanmar in the SEA Games and AFF Cup, most recently at the 32nd SEA Games in Cambodia, we won 3-1 in the qualifying round and 2-0 in the final match, so what does Bich Thuy expect in this match? "That is also an advantage because they are also Vietnam's favorite opponents. This time we will follow the coach's tactics and play with the strongest spirit. The lessons learned will help the whole team look back at themselves in a better way. From there, we will promote what we have won against Myanmar many times before to win again," the girl number 23 confidently said.

Vietnamese fans at Chonburi Stadium cheered continuously.

Bich Thuy also hopes to score: "Since the 2017 SEA Games, I have not scored against Myanmar for a long time. Teammates like Huynh Nhu, Thanh Nha, and Hai Yen scored against Myanmar at previous SEA Games, so I hope it will be my turn this time. At the 33rd SEA Games, I always set the goal of scoring in every match. I hope I will score against Myanmar to contribute to the team's overall success."

The midfielder of the Vietnamese team also apologized to the Vietnamese fans present at Chonburi Stadium on the afternoon of December 8 and hoped to receive support again. "After the match, we were sad and felt pain, our hearts were heavy because of the cruel defeat, so everyone was shocked, speechless and did not go over to greet and thank the fans who stayed on the field. I hope everyone sympathizes and understands the mood at that time, and continues to support the Vietnamese women's team in the next match. The Myanmar audience will certainly be very crowded, so if many Vietnamese fans come to the stadium on the afternoon of December 11, it will be a great motivation and encouragement for the whole team to play better."
