Thailand Faces US Shutout, Calls Up Sarah Filimon
Thailand's women's volleyball team fell 0-3 to the US in the Nations League, prompting the call-up of Sarah Ankoma to replace an injured setter ahead of tomorrow's match against Japan.
The Thai women's volleyball team lost 0-3 to the United States in Week 3 of the Nations League in Japan. Head coach Aout Kiatphongsa said his team gave their best effort against the Americans, who possess excellent serving. Thailand was unable to play at full strength due to an injured setter. Thai-Ghanaian player Sarah Ankoma has been called to join the team immediately at this position. Player Beam Pimpichaya acknowledged several mistakes that need fixing, particularly in serving. Thailand looks ahead to tomorrow's match against Japan, which should be competitive since both teams are smaller in stature and both have strong receiving defense.
