Live schedule of AVC Nations Cup on June 22 - Graphics: AN BINH
The first opponent in the qualifying match of the Vietnamese team is Indonesia. Because they are both in the Southeast Asian region, these two teams have a lot of fate when they often meet each other.
On the world rankings as of the morning of June 22, the Vietnamese men's volleyball team is ranked higher (55th compared to 61st). But in reality, this does not say it all.
For many years, the Vietnamese team has been at a disadvantage compared to Indonesia. At the SEA Games, the last time the Vietnamese team won against this opponent was in 2015. Since then, Indonesia has always won with scores of 3-0 or 3-1.
In a new playground of Southeast Asia, SEA V.League, the situation is not better. In a total of 4 meetings, Indonesia won all.
The team from the "thousand islands" country is a real force in the region, having won three consecutive SEA Games gold medals in men's volleyball.
Therefore, despite being higher on the world rankings, the Vietnamese men's volleyball team is rated lower in this AVC Nations Cup competition. However, this may not have much of an impact on the psychology of coach Tran Dinh Tien and his team.
Up to this point in the AVC Nations Cup, the Vietnamese men's volleyball team has been playing well. Especially in the quarterfinal match against defending champion Qatar on the evening of June 21, they created many surprises. Despite being criticized as being at a disadvantage compared to their opponents, the Vietnamese athletes still dragged their opponents into the 5th set before giving in.
Opposite Nguyen Van Quoc Duy plays very well and is the main scorer of the Vietnamese men's volleyball team at the moment.
Meeting Indonesia is not an easy task. But with what they showed against Qatar, the Vietnamese men's volleyball team has the right to hope for a surprising result.
The remaining 5th to 8th place matches are Australia and Chinese Taipei. The winners of these two matches will advance to the 5th and 6th place matches. The losers will then face each other for the 7th and 8th place matches.
All matches of the AVC Nations Cup 2025 will be broadcast on https://tv.volleyballworld.com/. Match start times may be later than scheduled due to extended matches.
