The race to win tickets to the Hung Vuong Cup 2026 is entering a fierce phase when the situation in both men's and women's categories continuously reverses after each round.
In the men's event, the two tickets belonged to Bien Phong and Ho Chi Minh City Police. The remaining two slots are fierce competition between The Cong Tan Cang, LPB Ninh Binh and Hanoi.
Most recently, Hanoi men's club just defeated Da Nang 3-1, thereby clinging to the opportunity to be in the top 4. This victory helps the Capital team continue to nurture hope, and at the same time creates no small pressure on direct opponents in the race to the top 4.
Meanwhile, the women's content is equally dramatic. After Hanoi Tasco Auto and Duc Giang Lao Cai Chemicals soon won tickets, the remaining two spots were a competition between the Information Corps, VTV Binh Dien Long An and Long Son Thanh Hoa Cement.
The scenario is becoming clear as the "early final" between Thong Tin and Long An will decide a ticket. The winning team is guaranteed to advance, while the losing team must wait for the result of the match between Hoa Chat Duc Giang and Thanh Hoa.
If the Lao Cai representative wins, both Thong Tin and Long An will participate. Conversely, if Thanh Hoa creates a surprise, they will be the ones to advance.
Phase 1 of the volleyball championship only has 1 final match left and the race to win tickets to the Hung Vuong Cup 2026 is entering the "death curve", where all mistakes have to pay the price and opportunities are only for brave teams.
