MANDALAY (13 Dec 2013) – The Vietnam national women’s team picked up their first win in Group A when they crushed the Philippines 7-0 at the Mandalar Thiri Stadium here in Mandalay.
With only three teams in Group A, the loss for the Philippines meant they are already out of contention after losing to hosts Myanmar 2-0 in the opener three days ago.
And this evening, the Philippines simply had no answer to the might of Vietnam with a brace each from Nguyen Thi Moun (8th and 61st minute) and Nguyen Nguyet (10th and 70th minute).
The other goals for Vietnam were scored by Hong Tran (in the 60th minute), Nguyen Dung (73rd) and Huynh Nhu (83rd).
Vietnam will take on hosts Myanmar in the group decider in two days.
