Coach Masahiko Okiyama opted for a deep defensive formation, playing a counter-attacking game against a supposedly stronger opponent. The young Vietnamese women held firm for the first 20 minutes. Goalkeeper Cam My also made several timely interventions to protect the goal.
However, the class of the Australian U17 women's team gradually became apparent. In the 28th minute, from a fast-paced attack down the left wing, Kaya Jugovic's shot forced goalkeeper Cam My to push the ball away, creating an opportunity for Karaberis to rush in and score the opening goal for the Australian U17 women's team.
Just three minutes later, Australia doubled their lead when Leyla Hussein found the back of the net from a tight angle, making it 2-0.
In the second half, the Australian U17 women's team continued to control the game and proactively maintained pressure. The Vietnamese U17 women's team tried to push forward in search of an equalizer, and coach Masahiko Okiyama also made personnel changes to strengthen the attack. However, the Vietnamese U17 women's team's attacks did not create much danger for their opponents.
The most notable moment for the Vietnam U17 women's team came in the second half when Ngoc Anh had a good opportunity to break through, but her final shot went over the crossbar in the 57th minute.
Losing 0-2 in the end, the Vietnam U17 women's team concluded their journey at the 2026 AFC U17 Women's Championship in the quarter-finals on the afternoon of May 11th.
