TEHRAN, Sep. 07 (MNA) – Iran’s women’s volleyball squad defeated Taiwan's team 3-0 at the Asian Women's Club Volleyball Championship which was held in the Philippines on Wednesday.


The 17th edition of the tournament continued on the third day in the Philippines where Iran’s Sarmayeh Bank overwhelmed T. Grand of Chinese Taipei 3-0 in a Pool B encounter.

This marked the second victory for the Iranian squad after their first triumph in the tournament against North Korea on Saturday.
