The friendly match between the Vietnam women's team and Werder Bremen women's club will take place on May 16 at Hang Day Stadium and will be broadcast live on VFF Channel and FPT Play.

This is an activity to celebrate the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Vietnam and the Federal Republic of Germany.

At the same time, the match also demonstrated the active preparation of Vietnamese women's football before the 2026 Asian Women's Championship qualifiers. In particular, playing against a traditional German team like Werder Bremen promises to bring valuable experiences to the whole team.

Werder Bremen Women's Club competes in the Frauen-Bundesliga, one of the top women's football leagues in Europe and the world. The team is based in the city of Bremen and is known for its modern and technically sound style of play.

With a squad that includes many talented young players and rich international experience, Werder Bremen will be a quality opponent for the Vietnam women's team.

Previously, the Vietnamese women's team lost narrowly to the German women's team 1-2 in a friendly match to prepare for the 2023 Women's World Cup.

Sharing about the friendly match with Werder Bremen women's club, General Secretary of the Vietnam Football Federation (VFF) Nguyen Van Phu said: "VFF always strives to create maximum conditions for the team to have the opportunity to compete with quality opponents, thereby helping the players gain more experience and improve their competitive spirit."

"For our players, this trip is another great highlight in their careers after the cup final on May 1. We are looking forward to a top-notch match with the Vietnamese women's team and are very excited about this trip," said Clemens Fritz, Werder Bremen's football director.

The Vietnam women's team will gather on May 6 at the Vietnam Youth Football Training Center (Hanoi) with 25 players. Under the guidance of coach Mai Duc Chung, the Vietnamese women's players will have 10 days to prepare for the friendly match with Werder Bremen women's club.

Previously, on May 12, the Vietnamese women's team was scheduled to have a friendly match with the Ho Chi Minh City women's club, which is currently training in Hanoi.

At the end of phase 1 of the first training session in 2025, the Vietnamese women's team will leave for Japan for training from June 8 to 18.

After this overseas training trip, the Vietnamese women's team will move to Viet Tri (Phu Tho) to continue training and compete in the qualifying round of Group E of the 2026 Asian Women's Championship taking place here from June 29 to July 5.
