Today (October 4), the Vietnamese sports delegation entered the 11th day of competition at the 19th ASIAD in Hangzhou (China) with the expectation of competing for gold medals in sepak takraw, cycling, and athletics, quenching the thirst for gold medals since the victory of shooter Pham Quang Huy on September 28.

Sepak Takraw: After a 1-1 draw, Vietnam and Indonesia entered game 3.

Indonesia entered the service with heavy pressure and put the ball into the net themselves. The score was 20-14 for the Vietnamese women's team. In the decisive match, Ngoc Yen (4) continued to show her scoring class with a hook shot, setting the score at 21-14, 2-1, bringing the second gold medal to the Vietnamese sports delegation.

With this achievement, the women's sepak takraw team with 6 athletes (4 main team, 2 reserve) received 840 million VND from the state (140 million/gold medal, teams with 6 athletes will receive the same amount). Sepak takraw Federation gave a bonus of 300 million VND. The Vietnamese delegation received a bonus of 500 million VND. The team consisted of 6 athletes: captain Nguyen Thi My (2), Tran Thi Ngoc Yen (4), Nguyen Thi Yen (11) and Nguyen Thi Ngoc Huyen (12). The reserve athletes were Tran Thi Hong Nhung (3) and Le Thi Tu Trinh (5).

In the third set, our girls will serve first. If they score from this serve, the Vietnamese team will have a great opportunity to take advantage of the momentum to put pressure on their Indonesian opponents.

The Vietnamese women's team has excellently scored the first 2 points in their serve. The score is 5-4. The opportunity is opening up for us to be able to lead the opponent in the deciding game when it is Indonesia's turn to serve. The 3rd game is breathtaking. 7-4, scoring 2 points in a row in Indonesia's serve. 7-6. The 4-person Vietnamese women's sepak takraw team is playing well in the 3rd game, but the Indonesian opponent is also playing with determination. In the last serve, our blocker performed well to lead the score 8-7. Indonesia's Kusnelia (9) is in pain after trying to save the shuttlecock.

The loss of points and players has left the Indonesian girls confused, allowing the Vietnamese women's team to score 3 points in a row, creating a gap of 11-7. The two teams have just changed sides.

Ngoc Yen (4) excellently served and scored a direct point. The first direct point of both teams in the match. The score was 12-9. The right to serve belonged to Indonesia under great pressure and the opponent had to ask for a time-out. The score was 13-9, temporarily in favor of Vietnam.

The Vietnamese 4-person women's sepak takraw team has just complained that the shuttlecock has gone out. The referee is reviewing the video (not replaying widely), before announcing that the shuttlecock is still in the field. The score is determined to be 13-10 in favor of Vietnam. Very quickly after that, we increased the gap to 4 points (14-10). The spirit of the Vietnamese girls is very high. The score is 17-11, a very safe distance. If we win this 3rd game, we will collect the full collection of world championship and ASIAD gold medals in the 4-person women's sepak takraw category.
