The Philippine women's football team stay in the running for a semis spot by stunning defending champion Vietnam in the SEA Games 2025.
The Filipinas delivered a stunning upset in SEA Games 2025 action, defeating defending champions Vietnam, 1–0, on Monday at the IPE Chonburi Stadium to revive their semifinal hopes. Fresh off scoring her maiden goal vs. Myanmar, Mallie Ramirez repeated the heroics with a clutch finish deep into added time, pouncing on a rebound after a Hali Long header attempt was blocked.
With Vietnam left stunned, the Filipinas held firm to keep themselves in contention for the medal rounds — just minutes after the U21 men’s team also upset defending champs Indonesia. The Filipinas now need a convincing win over Malaysia in their final match to book a semifinals spot.
