Vietnam vs New Zealand Prediction
The Vietnamese team continues to prepare for their first World Cup appearance with a friendly match against a high-level opponent. This time, the opponent of coach Mai Duc Chung and his students is New Zealand - the host of the 2023 Women's World Cup.
The impressive performance in the friendly match with the German team 2 weeks ago has given the Vietnamese team and fans great confidence. If they continue to play well like this, Huynh Nhu and her teammates will not be surprised when entering the official tournament.
Vietnam women's team can cause a surprise against New Zealand.
The most obvious improvement of the Vietnamese women's team after the European training trip is their physical strength. Maintaining a stable playing style and scoring a goal from a counter-attack against the German team clearly shows that. Overall, if playing at their best, the Vietnamese team can keep up with the rhythm of strong opponents.
In this practice match of the Vietnamese team, the difficulty of the opponent has decreased but the challenge of the weather has increased. After several practice sessions in the cold rain, this match is an opportunity for coach Mai Duc Chung and his team to get used to the atmosphere of the World Cup in New Zealand.
The opponent of the Vietnamese women's team is the 26th ranked team in the world. New Zealand is the host of the 2023 World Cup, so they must have thorough preparation in all aspects for the national team. The New Zealand coach and players all seriously consider the friendly match with the Vietnamese team to be important both professionally and mentally.
New Zealand need a win to build confidence after a series of recent failures. They have not won in their last 10 matches (drawing 2 and losing 8). In fact, the opponents of the 2023 World Cup hosts are all on par or superior in terms of skill compared to this team. Therefore, that is not necessarily the basis for assessing their professional ability.
Compared to the Vietnamese team, New Zealand is rated higher, based on the positions of the two teams on the FIFA rankings. Against a stronger opponent with a physical advantage, what fans expect from the Vietnamese team is a good performance in spirit and reasonable play like the match against the German team.
