Myanmar, meanwhile, will have to regroup after a tough opening 6-0 defeat to China PR, with head coach Kumiko Tashiro needing to correct the defensive balance in her team to ensure they do not suffer for a second straight match.

Vietnam, however, will provide a different challenge with head coach Masahiko Okiyama already plotting a different game plan compared to their battling performance against Thailand.
“We will focus on recovery for the players because they have just gone through a very intense and exhausting match,” said Okiyama. “We will play in a different way to suit the level of the opponents.”
