July 20, 2023 - 09:56
The women's team has qualified for the World Cup for the first time. Here's an introduction to members of the squad.

No 7

NAME: Nguyễn Thị Tuyết Dung

Position: Midfielder

Club: Phong Phú Hà Nam WFC

Age: 29

Height: 1.60m

Squad number: 7

Dung is a superb goal-hunter. She has made herself famous all over the world with her superlative technique by finding the back of the net from corner kicks twice, one with her left leg and one with her right, in a single match in the 2015 AFF Women’s Championship.

No 8

NAME: Trần Thị Thùy Trang

Position: Midfielder

Club: HCM City WFC

Age: 34

Height: 1.57m

Squad number: 8

Playing futsal when she was 22, Trang used to be a great player and earned two SEA Games silvers before totally switching to football two years later. Now, she may be well in her 30s but that hasn’t slowed her down one bit, and with age comes loads of valuable experience.

No 9

Name: Huỳnh Như

Position: Forward

Club: Länk Vilaverdense

AGE: 31

Height: 1.58cm

Squad number: 9

In August 2022, Như wrote history as the first Vietnamese female footballer to play professionally abroad in Europe, by signing for the Portuguese club Vilaverdense in the Portuguese Campeonato Nacional Feminino. With 64 goals, she is the player with the most goals for the Vietnamese women's national football team. VNS
