We next play DPR Korea in the semi-finals. I admit that it will be a very tough match for us out there. My players must try much harder. The Koreans are very strong defensively and offensively. We couldn&#8217;t underestimate their exceptional tactics. My players had a tough match against Kazakhstan in this match and I think they are very exhausted. So, I don\u2019t think they could not regain their form in time ahead of the match against DPR Korea. We have only 50-60% staying power to play in the semi-finals,\u201d said Vietnam head coach Nguyen Tuan Kiet.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-44188\" src=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/d-6.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/d-6.jpg 960w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/d-6-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/d-6-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/d-6-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Against Chinese Taipei, Thailand\u2019s overwhelming dominance continued through a fusion of skill and brute force as they annihilated Chinese Taipei in thrilling three-setter 25-14 25-18 29-27 to challenge China, the team they lost 1-3 in the final showdown of the inaugural edition in the Philippines in 2015, in a semi-final clash.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-44189\" src=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/e-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/e-5.jpg 960w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/e-5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/e-5-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/e-5-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Pattiya Juangjan scored a match-high 17 points from 13 attacks, one block and a team-leading 3 aces for Thailand, while Thanacha Sooksod and Wipawee Srithong added 11 points apiece.

Against China in the semi-finals, I\u2019m still upbeat that this China team are not too strong and tall. We can cope well with their tactics and form. To beat the Chinese, we have to play with confidence as we did in this match against Chinese Taipei and avoid making unforced mistakes.

We trained only two months before taking part in this Championship because my players competed in National Championship in DPR Korea before undergoing an intensive training in preparation for this Championship. We are not experienced and this is our second time to compete in international events including the last year\u2019s VTV International Women\u2019s Volleyball Cup in Hatinh, Vietnam, where we finished second to hosts Vietnam. Our expectation here is not that high. We just want to do our best in every match we compete,\u201d said DPR Korea\u2019s head coach Jang Kwang Chol via English-speaking Ms Jang Jong Hyang, FIVB International Referee from DPR Korea.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, at Tay Ho Gymnasium, India thrashed Macau China in straight set 25-14 25-19 25-12 in classification for 9th-12th places. The other match between Australia and Maldives ended in a forfeit as the latter left Hanoi earlier.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, Macau China are likely to finish 11th position as they are due to take on the losers in the match between Maldives and Australia, in the 11th-12th place playoff on Saturday.
