(VOVWORLD) -Cold, windy and rainy weather on Saturday could not dishearten the Vietnamese women's team who were training for a friendly match against New Zealand before the World Cup 2023.
According to fitness coach Cedric Roger, to keep fit in the temperature of 10 to 20 degrees Celsius, the team’s doctors have prepared more ginger tea and hot drinks for players during training sessions.
On Sunday coach Mai Duc Chung and his players still had a practice session before the match against the host country’s women's team at 5:30 pm on Monday (local time) at McLean Park Stadium, Napier, New Zealand.
