After the group stage matches ended, the 33rd SEA Games women's football tournament determined the four teams that qualified for the semi-finals, including the Vietnam women's team, Thailand, Indonesia and the Philippines.
According to the semi-final branch of the 33rd SEA Games women's football, the Vietnamese women's team will face the second team in Group A, the Indonesian women's team. This is considered a relatively easy match for the Vietnam women's team, as the opponent is considered significantly inferior in terms of level and competition experience.
Therefore, the opportunity for Vietnam to win a ticket to the final is very large, thereby taking an important step on the journey to defend the SEA Games gold medal.
However, with the nature of a knockout match, the Vietnam women's team certainly cannot be subjective, because just a small mistake can cost a lot.
In the remaining semi-final match, the Thai women's team - the first team in Group A - will face the Philippines women's team, the second team in Group B. This is predicted to be a more balanced and attractive match, as both are strong candidates for the championship. Only one of the two teams will qualify for the 33rd SEA Games women's football final.
