MANILA -- Vietnam grabbed solo second in Pool A of the AVC Cup for Women with a 25-17, 25-14, 25-11 romp of Iran on Tuesday at the Philsports Arena.

Tran Thi Thanh Thuy scored 7 points in each set to finish with 21 points, while Nguyen Thi Trinh added 9 points for the Vietnamese.

Continuing its rise from last Sunday's five-set loss to five-time winners China, Vietnam needed only an hour and 22 minutes to move up to 2-1 in Pool A.

The Vietnamese will wrap up their Pool A assignments against the winless Koreans at 1 p.m. on Wednesday.

On the same day, Iran will play the Philippines at 7 p.m.
