Vi Thị Như Quỳnh and her teammates lost the 'relegation final' match in the Indonesia league

(Volleyball results) - Vi Thị Như Quỳnh and the Medan Falcons struggled against Jakarta Livin Mandiri, continuing their series of losses in the 2026 Indonesian National Volleyball Championship.

Set 1: Medan Falcons 21-25 Jakarta Livin

The match between the two teams with the worst form in the 2026 Indonesian National Volleyball Championship was quite close in the early points. However, Jakarta Livin Mandiri pulled ahead thanks to the outstanding performances of foreign players Ceyda Aktas, Ana Bjelica, and former Indonesian national team captain Yolla Yuliana. They also exploited the opponent’s aggressive first-step actions effectively to maintain their lead.

For Medan Falcons, the offense was quite blunt as Vi Thị Như Quỳnh had yet to make a significant impact, and Pascalina Mahuze showed inconsistency.

Set 2: Medan Falcons 20-25 Jakarta Livin

Vi Thị Như Quỳnh continued to face a tough set, partly due to less effective second passes. Meanwhile, Jakarta Livin Mandiri’s foreign players kept working at full capacity to help the capital’s team secure their first win in the tournament, performing their roles well.

Many challenges await Như Quỳnh and her teammates in set 3.

Set 3: Medan Falcons 25-20 Jakarta Livin

Medan Falcons made a surprising strong comeback in set 3, while Jakarta Livin Mandiri’s play slowed down and lost the necessary rhythm. Vi Thị Như Quỳnh and her team accelerated significantly mid-set, at one point leading their opponents by as much as 8 points.

This gap was safe enough for coach Marcos Sugiyama’s squad to push through and reduce the score to 1-2.

Set 4: Medan Falcons 14-25 Jakarta Livin

Although the victory in set 3 seemed like a morale booster for Medan Falcons to aim for a similar result in set 4 and even the match at 2-2, the team played weakly and allowed Jakarta Livin Mandiri to completely control the game. Frequent mistakes gave the opponent’s foreign duo ample opportunities to exploit and extend the lead to double digits until the final points.

Final result, Jakarta Livin Mandiri defeated Medan Falcons 3-1 (25-21; 25-20; 20-25; 25-14). Vi Thị Như Quỳnh and her teammates still have not secured a win after 5 matches in the Indonesian National Volleyball Championship, earning only 1 point and dropping to the bottom of the standings.
