The final match of the men's event of the 2025 National Volleyball Championship will be a competition between the MB Border Guard team and the Tan Cang The Cong team.
In the second phase of the tournament, both teams will increase foreign players. While the teams are looking for hitters from Europe or Cuba to increase their strength, the MB Border Guard and The Cong Tan Cang teams trust the players from Southeast Asia.
Striker Jakkrit Thanomnoi (Thailand) has come to Vietnam for the third consecutive year to play for the MB Border Guard team. Although young, Jakkrit Thanomnoi played solidly.
In particular, the hitter has the ability to defend effectively in the first step. This is the advantage of Jakkrit Thanomnoi and coach Tran Dinh Tien (Border Defense MB) believes in signing a contract with the Thai foreign player.
In 2023, Jakkrit Thanomnoi competed in the final against Border Guard MB but only won the runner-up position. In 2024, this main striker showed good form and the MB Border Guard team won the championship.
This year, Jakkrit Thanomnoi came to Vietnam to compete in 2 stages and together with the army team reached the final for the 3rd time.
Experts assess that the MB Border Guard team has hired 1 of the foreign players with stable performance, contributing to the team's high results up to now.
Meanwhile, The Cong Tan Cang team created a breakthrough and successfully hired foreign player Rivan (Indonesia). The player of the Indonesian volleyball team is one of the players playing in the best opposite position in Southeast Asia at the moment.
This is the first time Rivan has come to Vietnam to compete. Immediately, the hitter and The Cong Tan Cang team entered the final match. Coach Thai Anh Van once assessed foreign player Rivan as a suitable addition to the important attacking position that the team lacks.
Rivan received many compliments for playing outstandingly and scoring an important point to help The Cong Tan Cang team beat Ho Chi Minh City Police team 3-0 in the semi-finals.
The final match of the men's event will take place at 8:00 p.m. on October 15 at Ninh Binh Provincial Gymnasium. This is the first time that Border Guard MB has met The Cong Tan Cang in the final match of the National Volleyball Championship.
