Live schedule of AVC Nations Cup on June 18 - Graphics: AN BINH
The first opponent of coach Tran Dinh Tien and his team in Group D of this year's AVC Nations Cup is New Zealand. In theory, the Vietnamese team is rated higher. They have a core of athletes from the Border Guard Club, who know each other very well.
Experience is also a factor that makes the Southeast Asian team better. The Vietnamese men's volleyball team has participated in the AVC Nations Cup (formerly the AVC Challenge Cup) for two consecutive years in 2023 and 2024. They even achieved impressive results when they ranked 4th and 6th respectively.
Meanwhile, New Zealand is only participating in the tournament for the first time. The order in the world rankings is also the basis for showing the ability of the two teams.
Currently, the Vietnamese men's volleyball team is ranked 56th in the world. Meanwhile, New Zealand is not ranked yet.
Of course, this also gives New Zealand a slight advantage as they are an unknown quantity. In the opening match against Korea, although they lost 0-3, they created quite a stir when the scores of the sets were 26-28, 13-25, 22-25.
Therefore, the Vietnamese men's volleyball team cannot afford to be careless. This year's AVC Nations Cup only has a maximum of 3 teams per group. If they beat New Zealand, the Southeast Asian team will definitely have a ticket to the next round. The match between the two teams will take place at 8:30 p.m. on June 18.
All matches of the AVC Nations Cup 2025 will be broadcast on https://tv.volleyballworld.com/. Match start times may be later than scheduled due to extended matches.
