TEHRAN – Iran’s Saipa defeated Hong Kong Kwai Tsing 3-0 (25-20, 25-20, 25-17) to finish 7th in the 2024 Asian Women’s Club Volleyball Championship on Saturday at Chartchai Hall.
Saipa’s Mahtab Rahmani was the top scorer of the match, contributing 18 points in the straight-sets victory.
The Saipa Club had the luxury of a taller lineup, which gave them the advantage in attacks and blocks. Mahtab and Aytak Salamat ran the wings and connected with good percentage.
Wing Ting To and Wing Man To were Kwai Tsing’s main hitters, who posted by the flanks and helped surprise the opponents with some key blocks.
Saipa took their best possible finish of 7th place in 2024. They  have recorded their best finish in the competition’s history as fourth placer in the 2021 edition, also held in Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand.
