The group stage matches of the 2024 National U23 Volleyball Tournament continue today, September 15.
The most notable match of the 8th day between VTV Binh Dien Long An and the Information Corps was extremely exciting. It was thought that VTV Binh Dien Long An would win quickly after dominating the first 2 sets, but the Information Corps surprised everyone by leveling the score in the next 2 sets.
In set 5, the two teams fought back and the final victory belonged to the Information Corps (24-26, 21-25, 25-19, 25-18, 15-12). Thus, the Information Corps won 3 matches in the group stage and made the situation in group B much more unpredictable.
In Group C, Vietinbank women's team won 3-0 (25-20, 25-17, 25-11) against Hai Duong. Coach Nguyen Tuan Kiet and his team are still in second place in the group, after Thai Nguyen women's team.
In the men's group, the Hanoi youth team won 3-1 against Quang Nam after nearly 2 hours of struggle (25-22, 23-25, 25-14, 30-28). It was quite unfortunate for Quang Nam when they had a chance to win in set 4, but could not finish off their opponents.
In the next match, HCMC lost to HCMC Police with a score of 1-3 (22-25 25-13, 20-25, 23-25). Up to now, HCMC has lost all 5 matches in the group stage and has been eliminated from the tournament.
In the latest match of the day, Ninh Binh won 3-2 against Border Guard (25-21, 25-27, 28-30, 25-23, 15-8). All sets were very tense and the match lasted more than 3 hours. Along with Tan Cang The Cong, Ninh Binh is a strong candidate for this year's championship.
Tomorrow (September 16) will be the last day of the group stage matches. This will be followed by the women's quarter-finals (September 17), the men's and women's semi-finals (September 18) and the men's and women's final (September 19).
