Chinese Taipei advances to women's volleyball world championship
(updated)
NINGBO, Zhejiang Province, Aug. 6 (Xinhua) -- Chinese Taipei edged
Australia in four sets on Saturday in Group A of the women's
volleyball world championship Asian qualifying tournament.
With the 25-15, 24-26, 25-18, 26-24 victory, Chinese Taipei has
earned a berth in next year's world championship to be held in Japan
despite the result of their last group game on Sunday against China.
"Many spectators chanted cheers for us tonight. I am very grateful
to them for their support," said Lin Kuang Hung, head coach of
Chinese Taipei.
