The Thai women's volleyball team once defeated the Chinese women's volleyball team led by Li Yingying in the World League, and their original team played in the Asian Cup, which was regarded as the number one favorite to win the championship, but the semi-final against the Chinese women's volleyball team formed by the national youth team was defeated 2-3. Therefore, in the case of the full main team, although the Thai women's volleyball team failed to reach the final, the third place battle faced the challenge of the Vietnamese women's volleyball team, even if the opponent had the offensive strength of Chen Qingcui, but it did not give Vietnam any opportunity to upset.
The starting lineup of the Thai women's volleyball team is as follows:

The Vietnamese women's volleyball team still attacks with the strongest lineup, the main attack is Chen's Qingcui and Fan's Yueying, the deputy attack is Chen's Bishui and Liu's Hui, the receiver Huang's Qiao Zhen and the freeman Li's Qinglian, and the second pass Duan's Lin Ying are the core strength of the team.
The first set of the Thai women's volleyball team came up quickly into the state, through excellent organization and strong attack, the Thai women's volleyball team in the first half of the set 11-6 to open the score difference, although the Vietnamese team fell behind by 7 points in the case of a once chased score to 19-23, but with the Chen's Qingcui jump out of bounds, the Thai team still successfully got the innings, Cha Chuang's counterattack was finalized, the Thai women's volleyball team 25-19 to take the lead, the total score 1-0 lead.
In the second set, the Thai women's volleyball team started 6-2 easily to lead, the Vietnamese team frantically counterattacked to a 9-9 draw, the two sides next did not give in to each other, played difficult to score, until the time of 20 draws, the Vietnamese team scored 2 consecutive points to achieve a 22-20 counter-overtaking, the Thai team attacked 24 draws with full force and scored 2 consecutive points, with a thrilling 26-24 next city, the total score was 2-0 ahead of Vietnam.
