" Right when entering the match, Lam Oanh had psychological problems. Later, the coaching staff encouraged her and Oanh also listened more to organize situations on the field. With a tense match like this, 1 to 2 points is also a difference. Therefore, we cannot pass the ball according to inspiration, but must depend on the time and observe the opponent's defense.
In the next 3 rounds, we did not attack Korea's No. 4 position anymore, but focused on No. 2 position. The attacks behind the 3-meter line and overlapping attacks were effective ," Coach Nguyen Tuan Kiet shared.

The Vietnamese women's volleyball team came from behind to win against the Korean team in the second match of the 19th Asian Games. The team lost the first two sets, and coach Nguyen Tuan Kiet had to make some adjustments - including the playing style of setter Lam Oanh - to optimize the team's attacks. Thanks to this timely change, the Vietnamese girls won the next three sets.
Besides improving the second pass, coach Nguyen Tuan Kiet also highly appreciated the change in his student's first pass.
" After we knew we would meet Korea again at the 19th ASIAD, the coaching staff and athletes determined that the first thing to do was to improve the first pass. The second was the mental aspect. When we do the first pass well, the team's pieces will be formed and more cohesive. In today's match, in the first half, we did not do the first pass well. Later, when the players adjusted, the results were better, " the 56-year-old coach shared.
With the victory over South Korea, the Vietnamese team topped Group C. The organizers selected the top two teams from each group to enter round 2. In this round, coach Nguyen Tuan Kiet and his team were paired with the teams from Group A - most likely China and North Korea.
" After defeating South Korea, we have secured half of our place in the round of 4. We need to defeat one of the two opponents, North Korea or China. China is clearly a better team, so we will focus all our efforts on the next match against North Korea. They are building a young squad and have a good striker who scored 30 points in the opening match. Therefore, we must try to come up with good tactics ," said Mr. Nguyen Tuan Kiet.
The matches in the second round of women's volleyball at the 19th Asian Games will take place on October 4.
