Facing the blue team of Xa Store Club, coach Nguyen Dinh Hoang and his team created a dramatic match. Although they actively played an open game from the beginning, the Vietnamese girls conceded the first goal. However, they quickly regained control of the game and Thanh Ngan equalized 1-1 before the end of the first half.

The second half witnessed a tense score chase. After letting the opponent take the lead 2-1, Thu Xuan promptly scored an equalizer. In the 29th minute, the Vietnamese female futsal players took the lead for the first time, 3-2, but immediately after that, the opponent equalized and led again, 3-4.

Thuy Trang and her teammates let their opponents take the lead three times.

The Vietnamese women's futsal team deployed a power-play strategy and Van Anh was the one who scored the winning goal to tie the score at 4-4 with 30 seconds left. This was also the final result of the practice match. This was also the only domestic friendly match before the end of the first preparation phase.

Vietnam women's futsal team had a 4-4 draw with their opponent in the last 30 seconds of the match.

Evaluating the domestic training session, coach Nguyen Dinh Hoang said: "This is an opportunity for the coaching staff to evaluate what the team has practiced and how the game is played, thereby gaining experience and assembling the team for the final round.

During the quality training trip in Japan, we have a friendly match with the Japanese women's futsal team, one of the top teams in Asia, or in other words, one of the strongest opponents in the region. This is an opportunity for the players to prepare mentally, to catch up when the final round has many strong teams to have better preparation."
