PRE-MATCH INFORMATION:

In this semi-final match, the Vietnamese women's team is considered far superior to Indonesia. Despite having many naturalized players in their squad, Indonesian women's football still lags far behind top regional teams like Thailand, Vietnam, and the Philippines in terms of skill level.

This was clearly demonstrated in the Indonesian women's team's 0-8 defeat to host Thailand. In terms of skill level, the Vietnamese women's team is either on par with or slightly better than them.

Therefore, experts believe that the Vietnamese women's team will have no difficulty defeating Indonesia and securing a place in the SEA Games 33 gold medal match.

Despite facing a much weaker opponent, Coach Mai Duc Chung's team needs to play with focus and respect for their opponent if they want to achieve a favorable result.

On the Indonesian side, their morale is very high after securing a place in the semi-finals of the women's football tournament at the SEA Games for the first time. This relaxed mindset could be a powerful weapon to help the Indonesian women's football team pull off an upset.
