It seemed that Doan Thi Kim Chi and her team had run out of chances to defend their championship title after losing the top spot after round 11. However, the "misstep" of the Hanoi 1 women's team against Vietnam Minerals in the previous round opened up an opportunity for the team from the city named after Uncle Ho. Currently, the Ho Chi Minh City 1 women's team is at the top of the 2023 National Women's Football Championship and will be crowned champions if they win both remaining matches.
HCMC Women's Team 1 (red shirts) easily beat Phong Phu Ha Nam
At that time, even if Vietnam Coal and Minerals won both matches, they would still have to finish behind due to a lower head-to-head record despite having the same number of points. This was a great opportunity for Coach Doan Thi Kim Chi and her team as the remaining two opponents were not too strong. The opponent in round 13 was only Phong Phu Ha Nam, currently ranked fourth on the rankings.
However, coach Doan Thi Kim Chi still had to field the strongest lineup in the must-win match in round 13. Unlike the hard-fought victory in the first leg, Ho Chi Minh City 1 Club had a very good start in the second leg with an early goal in the 6th minute. From a long pass from her teammate, Bich Thuy got down to receive the ball and then crossed for Phan Thi Trang to rush in and shoot into the Phong Phu Ha Nam net.
Leading early, but the defending champion continued to increase the pressure in the hope of increasing the gap. With a strong attack, Ho Chi Minh City Club 1 continued to score another goal in the 30th minute, unfortunately Thuy Trang's goal was not recognized due to offside. However, all the efforts of the team at the top of the table were rewarded in the 10th minute of the second half.
From a cross from her teammate on the right wing, Cu Thi Huynh Nhu headed the ball for Kim Yen to run down and shoot, doubling the gap for Ho Chi Minh City 1. In the 70th minute, Bich Thuy headed the ball for Thuy Trang to volley beautifully, raising the score to 3-0 for the defending champion and almost ending the hope of Phong Phu Ha Nam.
Vietnam Coal and Minerals women's team also had an easy victory over Hanoi team 2
With this victory, Coach Doan Thi Kim Chi's team firmly established the top position and thereby touched the cup with only 1 round left against the team at the bottom of the table, Son La . In the remaining 2 matches of today's competition day, Hanoi 1 women's team won Son La with a score of 3-0 and Vietnam Minerals also beat Hanoi 2 with the same score. Round 14 of the 2023 National Women's Football Championship will take place on December 28.
