QATAR POWER PAST THAILAND IN THRILLING ENCOUNTER TO SECURE TOP 6 SLOT

Urmia, Iran, August 23, 2023 – Formidable Qatar handed Thailand another loss in the 22nd Asian Senior Men’s Volleyball Championship following a well-fought 3-0 (25-23, 25-19, 25-22) win against the AVC Challenge Cup winners at Al-Ghadir Hall 1 on Wednesday.

Following their great win in this elimination phase, which sees the winners move up to the Top Six and the losers relegated to ranking 7-12, the Qataris, who have yet lost a single set to their respective rivals in this championship, keep their semifinals hopes alive.

Raimi Wadidie’s splendid partnership with Youssef Oughlaf proved too much for Thailand in this match. However, the Thai team gathered their courage for a comeback, but their determined efforts were denied by the Qataris’ solid defence.

Raimi Wadidie chipped in with 17 points all from attacks, while Napadet Bhinijdee topped Thailand’s charge with 14 points all from attacks.

As Thailand were ensured of being relegated to Classification Round for 7th-12th playoffs, unbeaten Qatar reached the elite Top Six.
