Vietnam U17 women's coach Okiyama Masahiko praised his players' composure after their 6-0 win over Palestine in qualifying for the 2027 Asian championship. According to the VFF, heavy rain interrupted the match for about 30 minutes, giving the coaching staff an opportunity to discuss adjustments. Okiyama said the next two days would focus on recovery and preparations for the Northern Mariana Islands. He also called on the substitutes to remain ready to contribute in the next fixture.
