Taiwan emerged victorious in a thrilling encounter against Vietnam at the Women's Asian Cup, securing a 1-0 win in Perth. Su Yu-hsuan's crucial header in the first half provided the breakthrough that eluded both teams in an otherwise disjointed attack before the break.

Despite being quarter-finalists in the previous edition, Vietnam couldn't capitalize on their nine attempts, failing to land any shots on target. Taiwan's disciplined defense was instrumental in preserving their narrow lead.

A last-minute VAR review for a penalty in favor of Vietnam did not result in any change, allowing Taiwan to move provisionally into second place in Group C, with powerhouse teams India and Japan slated to face off later in the schedule.
