In the second qualifying round of the 2024 Paris Olympics, the Vietnamese women's team is in Group C with host Uzbekistan, India and Japan.

However, to achieve this goal, the Vietnamese women's team must overcome the host team Uzbekistan in the opening match. Coach Mai Duc Chung commented on the host team: "In this return, I see that Uzbekistan has clearly improved in terms of level. The team recently entered the third place match of the ASIAD women's football event. That is enough to show how high the level of the Uzbekistan women's team is."

Despite finishing fourth at the recent ASIAD, the Uzbekistan team lost 0-8 to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea in the semi-finals and 0-7 to the Chinese women's team in the third-place match. This shows that the Uzbekistan girls are not very strong in defense. Meanwhile, coach Mai Duc Chung received good news when his favorite student Huynh Nhu returned to join the attack to increase the strength of the attack along with Hai Yen and Thanh Nha.

Therefore, each of us players entered the field with great determination, for the Vietnamese flag and colors as well as a meaningful farewell to coach Mai Duc Chung. The Vietnamese women's team came to the tournament with the spirit and determination to win a ticket to the third qualifying round of the 2024 Paris Olympics."
