However, the Japan\u2019s performance in the second edition in 2017 and the third episode here could be something they can be proud of. Japan came in a disappointing 6th place in the inaugural championship in 2015, also in Nay Pyi Taw.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-45770\" src=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/8-14.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"5586\" height=\"3724\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/8-14.jpg 5586w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/8-14-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/8-14-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/8-14-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/8-14-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 5586px) 100vw, 5586px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Against the taller Pakistan, the Japanese got off to a brilliant start to win the first set 25-18.

Still, Japan performed superbly both in defense and offence to reduce the margin and win the close set 25-23 for a 2-0 advantage. In the third set, Pakistan found Japan a tough nut to crack and surrendered to the irresistible rivals 18-25 to entirely dash out their high hopes of making a comeback.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-45766\" src=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/19-8.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"3599\" height=\"2399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/19-8.jpg 3599w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/19-8-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/19-8-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/19-8-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/19-8-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3599px) 100vw, 3599px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Pakistan\u2019s Morad Khan expressed his satisfaction over the final standing although the final two losses to India in the semi-finals and to Japan in the bronze-medal match let him down.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-45765\" src=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/22-6.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"4393\" height=\"2929\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/22-6.jpg 4393w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/22-6-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/22-6-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/22-6-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/22-6-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 4393px) 100vw, 4393px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Japan head coach, Gordon L Mayforth said, \u201cWe could have won the match against Chinese Taipei in the semi-finals to enter the final showdown, but we missed such an opportunity.

That was a good proof that Pakistan can beat any team if they put their hearts in the court and fight with intact spirit. The unbeaten team of the tournament played very bad against India in the Saturday\u2019s semi-finals and missed the chance to play in the final. Against Japan, Pakistan also lost their spirit because of the misfortune they faced against India earlier. They remained upset while playing Japan. They took the lead in the second set but could not garner their focus to win it. All in all, finishing fourth is also a good record that is happening for the first time for Pakistan.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-45764\" src=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/14-8.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"3654\" height=\"2436\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/14-8.jpg 3654w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/14-8-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/14-8-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/14-8-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/14-8-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3654px) 100vw, 3654px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Related links of AVC<br \/>\nAVC Website: click www.asianvolleyball.net<br \/>\nAVC Facebook: click www.Facebook.com\/AsianVolleyballConfederation<br \/>\nAVC Twitter: click: https:\/\/twitter.com\/avcvolley<br \/>\nAVC Instagram: click: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/avcvolley\/?hl=en<br \/>\nAVC Youtube: click: Asian Volleyball Confederation<br \/>\nAVC WeChat: Asian Volleyball Confederation<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nay Pyi Taw, Myanmar, August 11, 2019 \u2013 Japan grabbed bronze medal after overpowering Pakistan in three-set thriller 25-18, 25-23, 25-18 in the third-place playoff at the SMM 3rd Asian&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":45768,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"pgc_sgb_lightbox_settings":"","_vp_format_video_url":"","_vp_image_focal_point":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[100,86],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-45759","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-slider","category-volleyball-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.3 -
