Thai Women's Football Team Draws with Vietnam 0-0, Eliminated from Asian Games

The Thai women's national football team drew 0-0 with Vietnam in their final match of the 2026 Asian Games group stage, held on September 21st at Nagai Stadium in Osaka, Japan. This result saw Thailand finish last in Group E with one draw, two losses, and no goals scored, thus exiting the tournament in the group stage. Both teams had lost their previous two matches, and a victory would have offered a chance to advance as one of the best third-placed teams. Thailand fielded key attackers such as Kanyarat Chetbut, Jiraporn Mongkoldee, and Saowalak Pengngam, but failed to find the back of the net. Although Thailand dominated possession in the first half, they could not convert their chances. Vietnam also threatened with shots from players like Fifam Hai Yen, but the first half ended goalless. In the second half, Thailand intensified their attacks, but shots from Jiraporn Mongkoldee and others did not result in goals, and the match concluded with a 0-0 scoreline. Thailand was unable to score a single goal throughout the tournament, conceding nine goals over three matches. Vietnam, with this draw, secured one point, matching Thailand's total. However, due to a better goal difference, they narrowly qualified for the knockout stage as one of the best third-placed teams. Vietnam is scheduled to face China in the quarterfinals. The Thai women's national team is expected to return to Thailand on the evening of September 22nd, arriving at Suvarnabhumi International Airport in Bangkok. Source: INN News
