The Vietnamese women's team just suffered a heavy 0-7 defeat against the Netherlands in the final match of Group E of the 2023 World Cup.
Vietnam women's team suffered a heavy defeat against the Netherlands.
However, Huynh Nhu and her teammates still received a lot of encouragement from Asian football fans.
“I have said that the US, the Netherlands and Portugal are all top teams. The Vietnamese women's team was unlucky to be in this group.
Anyway, they did very well in their first appearance on the world stage. Let's work together for the development of ASEAN football," wrote Chit Paing.
“Stand up and keep fighting girls. Greetings from the Philippines,” one person commented.
Facebook users from Thailand said that the fact that a Southeast Asian team is present at the World Cup is a great effort and deserves recognition.
Besides, meeting strong opponents like the US or the Netherlands and losing is also acceptable.
“I don’t see anything funny about being in such a strong group. Vietnam did very well. They tried their best,” this person wrote.
“Getting to the World Cup is already very good. What more do we want from them?”, Iranian fans asked.
“Please don't laugh at them, they tried their best, even though it didn't bring much effect,” the Thai fan continued.
Meanwhile, user Quakee admitted that in Asia, only Japan is the team that has shown its strength.
Therefore, it is not too surprising that a rookie like Vietnam lost.
“Congratulations to Vietnam anyway. Our women's football is still not really developed, except for Japan.
We always support you. It was a great experience. Try your best next time.”
Thus, coach Mai Duc Chung and his team ended their journey at the 2023 World Cup with 3 losses and ranked bottom of Group E.
