The Vietnam U21 women's volleyball team lost 1-3 to Chile in the match for 17th-20th place at the 2025 U21 World Championship. Although it was not a surprise, the efforts of coach Nguyen Trong Linh's team are still commendable.

Not only the highest fighting spirit, the Vietnamese girls also left their mark in terms of expertise. Notably, the main striker Pham Quynh Huong had an excellent day of competition. The main striker born in 2008 was the best scorer of U21 Vietnam with 17 points, including 13 points for attack and 4 points for blocking.

Quynh Huong can continue to be the attacking option used by coach Nguyen Trong Linh in the match against the Dominican Republic. Besides, Anh Thao, Thuy Linh, Bich Hue are also ready to "burn" themselves out for the farewell match of the tournament.
