As announced before the tournament, despite facing highly rated U.21 Canada, coach Nguyen Tuan Kiet gave the opportunity to play to young players and players who had little chance to play in previous international tournaments. The main striker Dang Thi Hong, who was called up to the national team for the first time, was given a starting position alongside Vi Thi Nhu Quynh, Nguyen Thi Tra My, Nguyen Thi Trinh, Dinh Thi Tra Giang, setter Kim Thoa and libero Le Thi Yen.
Before the match, the Vietnamese women's volleyball team paid tribute to the late General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong.
Vietnam women's volleyball team narrowly defeated U.21 Canada in the opening match of the Shanghai Future Stars 2024 international women's volleyball tournament.
Playing with a reserve team, the Vietnamese girls entered the game quite confidently and won 25/20. However, in the next two games, the U.21 Canada team played more effectively, winning consecutively 25/22, 25/20 to lead the Vietnamese women's volleyball team 2-1.
Coach Nguyen Tuan Kiet's adjustments in personnel and tactics, especially sending No. 1 hitter Nguyen Thi Bich Tuyen onto the field, helped the Vietnamese women's volleyball team regain their position in the fourth game, winning 25/19, equalizing the score 2-2, then winning 15/9 in the decisive fifth game to secure a 3-2 overall victory.
U.21 Canada has very good physical strength
