Myanmar to play Viet Nam today in AFF U-18 Women’s Championship semi-finals
August 02, 2022
Myanmar
U-19 Women’s Football Team will play against the Viet Nam team today in the
semi-finals of the AFF U-18 Women’s Championship.
Myanmar
vs Viet Nam match will begin at 3 pm Myanmar Standard Time and Thailand will
take on Australia at 7:30 pm Myanmar Standard Time.
The
Myanmar team finished in second place after the group stage and the team is
meeting Viet Nam in the semi-finals.
Team
Viet Nam won every group matches with a 9-0 win over Singapore, 2-1 over
Indonesia, 7-0 over Cambodia, and 1-0 over Thailand.
Myanmar
beat Malaysia 2-0, the Philippines 3-1 but lost to Australia by 1-2.
Since
the Myanmar team qualified for the semi-finals after defeating the Philippines,
the group’s final match against Australia left out most of its core players and
played with mostly reserve players.
This
is the second time the ASEAN Football Federation has held the tournament, eight
years after the first in 2014.
The
Myanmar team did not play an international warm-up match before this
tournament, but their performance has stabilized from match to match, and they
will certainly play the best response against Viet Nam in today’s
semi-finals.—Ko Nyi Lay/GNLM
