Today (8.23), the Vietnam women's volleyball team will have their opening match against the Polish women's team in Group G, the 2025 World Championship. The match will take place at 20:30 .
This is a very difficult challenge for coach Nguyen Tuan Kiet and his team when the Polish women's team is ranked 3rd in the world. Meanwhile, the Vietnam women's team is ranked 22nd, 19 places behind their opponents.
Not to mention, the Vietnamese squad participating in the tournament is missing hitter Nguyen Thi Bich Tuyen. This more or less affects the strength of the home team. However, the coaching staff has had specific plans to focus on this position, while also adjusting tactics and playing style.
In addition, some notable matches on August 23 are the match between Japan - Cameroon, China - Mexico, Serbia - Ukraine, Dominican Republic - Colombia... all of which are currently among the top teams in the world.
