Coach Mai Duc Chung reveals how to defeat Indonesia's team of naturalized players.
The semi-final match of the women's football event at the 33rd SEA Games between the Vietnamese women's team and the Indonesian women's team will take place at 4 PM tomorrow at the IPE Chonburi Stadium (Thailand).
Before the semi-final match, coach Mai Duc Chung said: “I know the Indonesian women's football team has four naturalized players. They are good at playing long balls and aerial balls. Their players have good heading ability.”
"However, I have studied our opponents and have a plan to counter their tall and strong players. We will press high and not give them any space to operate," added coach Mai Duc Chung.
Compared to the Indonesian women's team, the Vietnamese women's football team is considered stronger. Our girls have better ball control and coordination. Coach Mai Duc Chung revealed that we will capitalize on these strengths.
Coach Chung shared: “The Vietnamese women's football team will not play long balls or compete physically with Indonesia. We will coordinate on the field. My players will bring out the best in each game.”
Coach Mai Duc Chung showered his players with praise, expressing his readiness to secure a place in the final.
This afternoon (December 11th), the Vietnamese women's football team secured an important 2-0 victory against the Myanmar women's team in Chonburi.
This victory propelled Coach Mai Duc Chung's team straight to the top of Group B in the women's football event at the 33rd SEA Games, securing their place in the semi-finals against Indonesia on December 14th. The other semi-final will be a clash between Thailand and the Philippines.

After the match against Myanmar, coach Mai Duc Chung said: “Before the match started, we all agreed that the whole team only had one option: to win to reach the semi-finals. My players played with a fantastic spirit.”
"In front of a large crowd of Myanmar fans in the stands, my players not only didn't feel pressured but also saw it as motivation to play better. I am proud of them," added coach Mai Duc Chung.
Having overcome considerable pressure to reach the semi-finals, the goals of the Vietnamese women's football team in general, and coach Mai Duc Chung in particular, have not yet ended.
The coach shared: “Our opponent in the semi-finals is Indonesia, who have made rapid progress recently. We respect them, but the Vietnamese women's football team will focus intensely on the goal of winning in the semi-finals.”
