SEA Games 33: Vietnam women's football team ready to compete for the gold medal

Although they did not score a "goal storm" like the host Thailand did against Indonesia in the group stage (winning 8-0), the Vietnam women's team still demonstrated clear superiority over their opponent in the SEA Games 2025 women's football semifinal.

Indonesia showed strong stamina and focused on tight marking and mass defense. Their fitness and defensive style made it difficult for Vietnam in the first half, resulting in only one goal from a successful penalty by Thái Thị Thảo. Vietnam displayed superior technical skills and diverse attacking strategies, from wing play to central attacks, and from ground passes to aerial balls. The goals scored in the second half were a natural result of the continuous pressure applied by the players in red. With more luck, they could have scored even more.

Vietnam achieved several goals in this match by securing a spot in the final, preserving their key players without injuries or overexertion, and building positive momentum ahead of the SEA Games 2025 gold medal match.

It will not be easy for the Vietnam women's football team to win the SEA Games title again. Though challenging, it is not impossible since the team is united in spirit and style, with many talented individuals who can make a difference like Thái Thị Thảo, Huỳnh Như, Hải Yến, Thanh Nhã, Bích Thùy... Despite consecutive victories in recent tournaments, the Vietnamese players show no signs of complacency and remain eager to achieve new successes. The Vietnam women's team is ready for the final match.
