Pre-match information:

This is the final match of both teams. The Vietnamese women's volleyball team therefore really wants a win to say goodbye to the tournament. Previously, the Vietnamese women's volleyball team lost to the world's third-ranked team, Poland, in the opening match with a score of 1-3.

However, winning a set against the world's third-ranked team was an unexpected success. After that, the Vietnamese women's volleyball team continued to lose 0-3 to Germany in an uncomfortable chase.

Kenya also suffered two defeats and, along with Vietnam, said goodbye to the 2025 Women's Volleyball World Cup from the group stage. But both teams are still looking forward to their final match with the highest determination.

On the Vietnamese team, captain Tran Thi Thanh Thuy is the biggest hope. She is both the one in charge of the first step and the one responsible for scoring. No matter what role she plays, Thanh Thuy always completes her task well.

Coach Nguyen Tuan Kiet's team is in high spirits and very determined. In a friendly tournament not long ago, the Vietnamese team had an overwhelming victory over Kenya.

But that does not mean they are complacent. The opponents have had equally excellent matches against Poland and Germany. Therefore, the chance of winning this decisive match is divided equally between them.

The match between the Vietnamese women's volleyball team and Kenya will start at 5 p.m., and will be broadcast live by Tuoi Tre Online .
