South Korea dethrones Vietnam

South Korea cruised past defending champion Vietnam, 25-20, 25-19, 25-23, to secure a spot in the finals of the 2026 Asian Volleyball Confederation (AVC) Women’s Cup on Saturday night at the Candon City Arena.

The South Koreans, who skipped last year’s AVC Women’s Cup as their national team competed in the Volleyball Nations League (VNL), topped Pool A with victories over Uzbekistan, Australia, the Philippines, Kyrgyzstan, and Taiwan.

Vietnam, meanwhile, finished second in Pool B with a 4-1 record against Indonesia, Iran, Hong Kong, and Lebanon. Their lone defeat came against Kazakhstan.
