The 2026 Asian Games will be held in Nagoya, Japan, from September 19 to October 4. The women's football competition will start early on September 14 and end on October 2. As planned, the team will train domestically and play friendly matches before heading abroad for training camps to refine their technical skills ahead of the tournament.
The draw for the women's football groups at the 2026 Asian Games (held on July 23 in Nagoya) presents a major challenge for the Vietnamese women's team, as Coach Hoang Van Phuc's squad is placed in Group A alongside hosts Japan, Chinese Taipei, and Thailand. This group is regarded as highly competitive, bringing together several strong teams in Asian women's football.
To ensure the best preparation, the coaching staff has designed a phased training plan that emphasizes improving physical fitness, perfecting tactical components, and gaining match experience through friendly games. After the domestic training phase, the team will travel abroad for further training to continue strengthening the squad, adapt to competition conditions, and enhance professional skills before the 2026 Asian Games campaign.
With thorough preparation and strong determination, the Vietnamese women's national team aims to present a positive image, maximize their potential against strong opponents, and strive for good results at the 2026 Asian Games.
