VOV.VN - Coach Nguyen Dinh Hoang has called up 15 female futsal footballers to the team’s first training session in Hanoi to prepare for the 2025 FIFA Futsal Women's World Cup hosted by the Philippines for the first time.
The national women’s futsal team will fly to China to take part in an international friendly tournament running from July 11 to July 15.
The inaugural edition of the FIFA Futsal Women's World Cup is to be hosted by the Philippines in late 2025.
The 16 teams will be divided into four groups of four, with the top two teams from each group advancing to the knockout phase, comprising of quarter-finals, semi-finals, a third-place play-off, and the final.
Alongside the host Philippines, the inaugural 2025 Futsal Women's World Cup will feature three teams from Asia, two each from Africa and North/Central America, three from South America, one from Oceania, and four qualifiers from Europe.
Starting from 2025, the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Women's Futsal Asian Cup will serve as a qualification for the FIFA Futsal Women's World Cup.
Vietnamese players are therefore embarking on a mission to earn a place at the World Cup by finishing among the top three finalists at the Asian tournament.
