Pre-match information

With LPB Ninh Binh, coach Thai Thanh Tung and his team met Japanese opponent NEC Red Rockets in the opening match. After 3 games, the representative of Vietnamese women's volleyball quickly lost 0-3 to their opponent. This was a predictable result as the two teams had a large difference in skill level.
This result puts the Ancient Capital team temporarily at the bottom of Group B.
According to professional statistics from the World Volleyball Federation, the 4 players who scored the most points for LPB Ninh Binh in the match were Nguyen Thi Bich Tuyen, Nguyen Thi Trinh, Dang Thi Hong and Le Thanh Thuy.
Among them, Bich Tuyen is still the team's number 1 scorer. After the first match, the 2000-born setter is in the top 5 players with the most points in the tournament. The player from Vinh Long scored 15 points. Therefore, this is still an important attacker for LPB Ninh Binh in the second match.
On the other side, Imoco Conegliano is considered a strong candidate for the championship in the upcoming tournament. The European champion brought 14 players to China with a series of famous stars such as Isabelle Haak, Merit Adigwe (opposite setter), Guimaraes Gabi, Zhu Ting, Khalia Lanier, Martyna Lukasik (main attacker)...
In the opening match, the Italian team easily won 3-0 (25-20, 25-15 25-15) against Imoco Conegliano. Gabi and Fahr were the two players who scored the most points for Imoco Conegliano with 12 points. These are also the two players who will certainly cause a series of difficulties for LPB Ninh Binh's defense.
With the balance of power continuing to be unequal, the representative of Vietnam is predicted to continue to inevitably receive a defeat.
The match between LPB Ninh Binh and Imoco Conegliano will take place at 08:00 on December 18.
