Young striker Nguyen Thi Thanh Nha had one of the most memorable moments of her career when she scored in a friendly match between the Vietnamese women's team and the German women's team. This was a match in which, despite losing 1-2, coach Mai Duc Chung and his team played impressively. A reasonable defensive counter-attacking strategy, along with the players' determination, helped the Vietnamese women's team gain great confidence, preparing for the 2023 World Cup in 3 weeks.
Sharing about the goal against the team ranked 2nd in the world by FIFA, Thanh Nha was moved: “I feel very happy and joyful. That goal was not only mine but also the effort of the whole team. I feel very honored.
The feeling at that time was hard to describe. I could only run to celebrate with my teammates and continue fighting with everyone until the last seconds of the match," the young midfielder of Hanoi Club added.
Thanh Nha (number 19) played outstandingly.
Thanh Nha was extremely happy after scoring against the German women's team - the team that won the world championship twice and the European championship eight times.

Thanh Nha is the most improved player of the Vietnamese women's team in the past year. At the 31st SEA Games in May 2022, the player of Hanoi Club was still a reserve for her senior Nguyen Thi Bich Thuy. However, Thanh Nha has strived to assert herself. The 22-year-old striker's efforts are recognized with the trust the coaching staff has in her.
At the 32nd SEA Games, Thanh Nha started more often, scoring important goals, including a goal against Myanmar in the final. In the match against the German women's team, despite being outclassed in terms of physique and strength, Thanh Nha fought persistently, had bold sprints, and often dropped back to actively support the defense to relieve pressure on the right wing. Thanh Nha was used throughout the entire match, showing that coach Mai Duc Chung has great confidence in his student's ability.

Thanh Nha shared: "The German women's team has big and tall bodies. There are still certain differences between our team and the German women's team. But we didn't give up because of that, the whole team tried and played their best."
