VOV.VN - Vietnam’s women’s national team continued preparations in Perth on March 1 with their second training session in Australia, fine-tuning tactics ahead of the upcoming 2026 AFC Women’s Asian Cup.
After a seven-day training camp in China, the squad quickly adapted to local weather and pitch conditions.
The coaching staff focused on sharpening tactical organization, improving coordination between defense, midfield and attack, and adjusting workloads in line with the competition schedule.
Forward Ngoc Minh Chuyen said the team are working hard ahead of the tournament. “We had seven days of training in China, which allowed us to draw lessons from each match and prepare thoroughly before entering the competition,” she said.

Expressing her pride at being trusted by the coaching staff, the young forward said she would continue to learn and improve. She described the tournament as a significant milestone in her career.
