Women's Volleyball World Cup 'empty waves' in Vietnam, audience laments: Where to watch live?

The Vietnamese women's volleyball team won the right to participate in the women's world championship for the first time, but Vietnamese television stations do not own the copyright to broadcast live, causing fans to sigh.

What day does the Vietnamese women's volleyball team play?

"Where can I watch the Vietnamese girls compete in the world championship?", "Can anyone give me a link to watch the Vietnamese team play Poland live today?", "Vietnam is participating in the world championship for the first time but no station bought the live broadcast rights, so disappointing"... Those are the prominent comments from fans on Vietnamese volleyball forums.

Besides football, volleyball is also a sport that attracts a lot of Vietnamese fans. The impressive achievements of the Vietnamese women's volleyball team in recent times, especially the defeat of Thailand in the second round of the SEA V.League, have made the team even more interested. However, to get the copyright to broadcast the Women's Volleyball World Championship live, the stations have to spend a lot of money. That is also part of the reason why no TV station currently owns the copyright to broadcast the matches of the Women's Volleyball World Championship in Vietnam.

Meanwhile, due to copyright, the World Volleyball Federation's YouTube channel does not broadcast live matches of the tournament. The matches are broadcast on the VBTV channel, also of the World Volleyball Federation, and viewers have to pay a fee. Faced with the "starvation" from TV stations and official channels, fans also shared with each other ways to watch live from social media pages. Some Vietnamese people living and working in Thailand also gathered at the stadium to cheer for Tran Thi Thanh Thuy and her teammates on their first time on the world stage.

At 8:30 p.m. today in Phuket (Thailand), the Vietnamese women's volleyball team (ranked 22nd in the world) will face the Polish team (ranked 3rd in the world) in the opening match of Group G of the Women's Volleyball World Championship. The opponent has a squad of hitters with an average height of nearly 1.9 m, including prominent faces such as Magdalena Stysiak (2.03 m), Agnieszka Korneluk (2 m), Czyrnianska (1.93 m), Lukasik (1.9 m)... considered superior, but the Vietnamese team is also eager to contribute their best, both experiencing and learning.
