Emotional moment when Vietnamese Sepak Takraw team reached the top of Asiad

In a spectacular comeback against Indonesia in the final match, the Vietnamese women's sepak takraw team (4-a-side event) excellently won the gold medal, helping the Vietnamese sports delegation complete their target at the 19th Asiad.

The Vietnam Sports Delegation (VSD) competed in 9 events on October 4, but the highlight was the women's sepak takraw final in the 4-a-side event. Coach Tran Thi Vui and her team took on a huge responsibility in helping the VSD fulfill its target at the 19th Asian Games (2 to 5 gold medals).

The Vietnamese women's sepak takraw team, including Tran Thi Ngoc Yen, Nguyen Thi Yen, Nguyen Thi Ngoc Huyen, Nguyen Thi My (with two reserve players Tran Thi Hong Nhung and Le Thi Tu Trinh), will compete in the final against Indonesia. Previously, the Vietnamese women's sepak takraw team also defeated Indonesia, successfully defending their world championship title.

Set 1, the Vietnamese women's sepak takraw team did not start well. The girls in yellow shirts had 5 missed serves, a weak block, many mistakes and psychological problems.

However, in set 2, Tran Thi Ngoc Yen (4) and her teammates overcame the challenge and tied the score 1-1. Tran Thi Ngoc Yen was the one who had a technical hook shot, scoring the decisive point for the victory of the Vietnamese team in set 2.

In the decisive third quarter, both teams played hard, competing for every point.

Tran Thi Ngoc Yen's brilliance helped the Vietnamese women's sepak takraw team lead 18-11. Then, a decisive goal by the Vietnamese women's sepak takraw team brought the lead to 19-14. Victory was very close for the Vietnamese girls.

After leading 20-14, the winning score of the Vietnamese women's sepak takraw team was scored by Tran Thi Ngoc Yen.

The joy of Vietnamese girls on the day they reached the top of the 19th Asian Games playground.

After winning the world championship, the golden girls of the Vietnamese women's sepak takraw team continued to conquer the number 1 position at the Asiad in Hangzhou, China.

After the "opening" gold medal in shooting, the Vietnamese sports delegation had to wait a week to have the joy of winning a gold medal in sepak takraw. It is understandable that coach Tran Thi Vui and her team were feeling the same way when they brought glory to the Fatherland.

The Vietnamese girls won with brave spirit.

The Vietnamese women's sepak takraw team became the second team to bring home a valuable gold medal for the Vietnamese sports delegation. With this gold medal, the Vietnamese sports delegation completed the target of winning 2-5 gold medals at the 19th Asian Games, but Vietnam still has some hope to improve its achievements.
