Thailand’s dismal start at home continues losing streak to Dominicans
Dominican Republic defied the energetic support of 4,000 fans at the Hua Mark Indoor Stadium as they thrashed the home team 3-0 in the evening session of the FIVB Women’s Nations League pool 11 on Tuesday.
The 2015 Pan American Games bronze medalists bombarded the home team with thundering smashes and fast pace to win the match 25-21 25-22 25-20.
Thailand has won only two out of seven matches. They will play Germany on Wednesday and face a tough encounter with the US in the last match of Pool 11 on Thursday.
Thailand ‘s national coach said: “Dominican succeeded in blocking and digging. That made it hard for us to win. We had to fight hard for every point but we made too many errors.”
Dominican coach Marcos Kwiek said: “It’s important that we win three points. We have good services and defences.”
Domnican have beaten Thailand three times in a row. They also beat Thailand in last year’s World Grand Prix in the Netherlands and in Bangkok.
