Cambodia to take on powerhouse Cuba in int’l volleyball friendly
The Cambodian Men’s national volleyball team will play against one of the strongest teams in the world in an international friendly match this week.

The National Olympic Committee of Cambodia (NOCC) announced that the Cambodian team will play against Cuba on Thursday at the Prince Stadium in Phnom Penh. The match will start at 7pm.

The Cambodians won the first set, 25-21. The Singaporeans stormed back into the game, winning the next set, 25-22, to set up the deciding third set.

The Cambodians pulled ahead, 22-18, in the third set, after the Singaporeans committed numerous service errors. The Singaporeans rallied to tie the score, 25-25. But they faltered from there, allowing the Cambodian side to win the decider, 27-25.

Nearly a thousand fans, including several Singaporean nationals, watched the game courtside.

A major volleyball tournament, HE Cup 2022, was also launched during the same occasion.

The tournament involves 11 teams, including Visakha, Ministry of Interior and Phnom Penh Administration.

I'd like to know why the women have to play volleyball in their underwear, while the guys wear their regular sweat-soaked gym gear. How do they expect to attract hetero-women spectators, men who prefer men, and those people who just like to watch people of either sex playing sport while half-naked ? ("Them"-watchers.) C'mon, this is 2023.
