Right from the first set of the quarter-final match of VTV Cup 2025, coach Nguyen Tuan Kiet, although not using his strongest lineup, still quickly controlled the game.

With the ability to serve well and attack the sidelines effectively, the Vietnamese women's team created a safe distance. Although U21 Vietnam unexpectedly rose strongly with a series of 8 consecutive points, they still had to accept defeat 21-25.

In set 2, the difference was even more evident. The U21 players continued to have difficulty passing the ball, many times letting the ball go into the opponent's net, creating scoring opportunities for their senior players.

With the stability of Vi Thi Nhu Quynh and her teammates, the Vietnamese women's volleyball team took less than 20 minutes to close the match with a 25-13 victory.

Set 3 was even quicker for the Vietnamese team, which was understandable when coach Nguyen Tuan Kiet sent out key players like Thanh Thuy and Bich Tuyen. The overwhelming 25-9 victory brought the Vietnamese team into the semi-finals to meet the girls from Chinese Taipei, tomorrow night (July 4).

With the strongest force, the Vietnam women's team is showing stable performance thanks to the leadership of pillars such as Tran Thi Thanh Thuy, Bich Tuyen, and libero Khanh Dang.

International competition experience and good coordination are strengths that help coach Nguyen Tuan Kiet's team be highly appreciated.

However, U21 Vietnam with its young faces is showing clear progress through each match, especially in its defensive ability, flexible net play and increasingly stable competitive mentality. With a fiery, energetic playing style, the young girls can completely cause difficulties for their seniors if they take advantage of the opportunities well.

The match is not only an opportunity for the women's team to test their strength, but also an opportunity for the U21 team to compete and prove themselves. Although the advantage is on the national team's side, surprises can absolutely happen in a match where both sides know their opponents well.
