Vietnam women's team will not have Huynh Nhu and Chuong Thi Kieu at ASIAD 19.

Captain striker Huynh Nhu will not participate in ASIAD 19 as his club Lank will keep him to play in Portugal's domestic leagues. This was predicted because Huynh Nhu has not actually joined the Vietnamese team since the 2023 Women's World Cup.

Center back Chuong Thi Kieu also had to say goodbye to her teammates a few days ago. The injury that has not fully recovered is the biggest obstacle for this player. At the 2023 Women's World Cup, coach Mai Duc Chung used his student relatively carefully. Chuong Thi Kieu played well but that was not enough for her to regain her image of the past.

Striker Huynh Nhu will not attend ASIAD 19.

Without important pillars, Mr. Mai Duc Chung boldly added and replaced them with many young players. In the left-back position, Tran Thi Duyen returned to the Vietnam team after many months of absence. My Anh was injured and the opportunity came to Tran Thi Duyen. The beautiful girl was expected to shine. Defender Lan Anh of Phong Phu Ha Nam was eliminated at the last minute.

In addition, new faces like Lan Anh and Nguyen Thi Hoa promise to bring youth and enthusiasm to the Vietnamese women's team. In attack, when Vu Thi Hoa cannot go to China due to injury, Tuyet Ngan is a worthy replacement.

Women's football has 17 teams participating and is divided into 5 groups. The teams compete in a round robin, the 5 group winners and 3 best second-placed teams will qualify for the quarter-finals.

The Vietnamese women's team is in the same group as Japan, Nepal and Bangladesh. The Japanese women's team has been in very good form recently, so the goal of getting points against this opponent is unrealistic. Therefore, Hai Yen and her teammates need to win by the biggest score possible against Nepal and Bangladesh to create an advantage over the second-placed teams in the other groups.
