The Coach's Moment of Confusion
During the match between Vietnam Women's Volleyball Team and the Philippines in the second round of the SEA V.League 2024, there was a moment when the Vietnam coaching staff was confused in their challenge.
Specifically, at the match-point of Vietnam, the line judge determined the ball was in the court after a hit by the Philippines player, the chief referee also raised their hand to score for the green team. Vietnam decided to challenge, but the two assistants of coach Nguyễn Tuấn Kiệt did not know which flag to raise.
Tú Linh, who was sitting next to him, had to run out to assist and point to the "block touch" flag. The video later determined that the ball did not touch the Vietnam defense, but the referee still scored for the Philippines in a confusing situation for both coach Tuấn Kiệt and the players.
This case was determined to be the referee scoring the ball in the court, so even though the challenge of the ball not touching the defense was accurate, Vietnam still could not score. It should be challenge in/out.
