Speaking at the ceremony, Ms. Nguyen Thanh Ha - Deputy General Secretary of VFF, Head of the Organizing Committee - said: "Established in 2019, the National Women's Football Cup has increasingly affirmed its important role in the women's football system in particular and national professional tournaments in general. In recent seasons, the National Cup has improved its expertise as teams focus on investing in quality.
