The two Vietnamese referees are among a total of 38 officials who will be officiating the competition.

Le Thi Ly from Ho Chi Minh City will work as a main referee during the finals of the tournament.

She is one of three female Vietnamese referees accredited by FIFA and is a senior referee of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC). 

Ly also officiated the match between the women's national football teams of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) and Japan held on February 24 in Pyongyang.

Last year she was assigned to take charge of games in the qualifiers for the AFC U20 Women’s Asian Cup, the 19th Asian Games (ASIAD 19), the 2024 Paris Olympics’ second qualifiers, and the AFC Women's Club Championship.

Meanwhile, Ha Thi Phuong from northern Hai Phong city will serve as an assistant referee at the tournament.

She has also worked for the AFC at several tournaments such as the AFC Women's Clubs Championship 2023 and 2024 Olympic qualifiers.

This year the Vietnamese U17 women’s team will not participate in the tournament as they failed to make it through the qualifying round.
