Pre-match information
The chance to win the championship for the Vietnamese team in the second phase of the 2025 SEA V.League is no longer there. Before the final match of the second phase of SEA V.League 2025, the teams are Indonesia (3 wins, 0 losses, 8 points), Thailand (2 wins, 1 loss, 6 points), Vietnam (2 wins, 1 loss, 5 points), Philippines (1 loss, 2 wins, 5 points), Cambodia (0 wins, 4 losses, 0 points).
On the last day of competition today, the home team Indonesia only needs to lose a narrow loss to Thailand to win the championship. If Thailand defeats Indonesia by a margin of 3-0 or 3-1, they will successfully defend their championship title.
The Vietnamese men's volleyball team still has a chance to win a silver medal in the event that Vietnam wins the Philippines 3-0 or 3-1 and Thailand loses to Indonesia.
In case Thailand defeats Indonesia and the Vietnamese team overcomes the Philippines, Nguyen Ngoc Thuan and his teammates will win third place. If they lose, Vietnam will not win a medal because they are ranked 4th.
The task of defeating the Philippines is not easy for Vietnam. Because this opponent surprisingly defeated the Vietnamese team with a score of 3-0 in the opening match of the first stage. However, in this rematch, Ngoc Thuan, The Khai, Duy Tuyen... have had a lot of experience.
The Vietnamese team must focus highly, maximize the ability of each player to hope to claim the "debt" to lose in the first stage, while also cherishing the hope of winning a medal in the second stage.
