Nearly avoids reverse sweep, snaps two-game winning streak

Two wins in a row after six straight losses. Hyundai Capital laid the foundation for a rebound.

Hyundai Capital won a three-set match against KB Insurance in the third round of the 2023-2024 Dodram V League Men's Division with a 3-2 (25-18, 30-28, 23-25, 15-25, 15-11) victory on Thursday at Yugusun Gymnasium in Cheonan.

With the win, Hyundai Capital added two points to its record to improve to 4-11-1 and 16 points on the season. They remain in sixth place. KB Insurance, on the other hand, failed to escape the bottom of the standings, earning just one point and falling to 3-13-1 with 14 points.

After a six-game losing streak, Hyundai Capital followed up its shutout victory against OK Financial Group on Sept. 9 with another win today, extending its winning streak to two games.

However, it was not an easy victory. After taking the first and second sets, Hyundai Capital dropped the third and fourth sets in straight sets. They had 11 service aces and were supported by Zupo Ahmed with 37 kills and Hong Dong-sun with 16, but they had too many errors. Hyundai Capital, which leads the league in errors, had 34 errors on the day.

After the game, Hyundai Capital head coach Choi Tae-woong said, "I think it was a good experience for our young players to go to five sets and still win." "The things we prepared in the first set worked well, but we lost focus after the middle. I hope that the players will take the opportunity to watch the replay and grow again."

Choi Tae-woong yelled at his players several times during the match. "I didn't scold them much," Choi said with a wry smile, "but I left a lot of games to the setters, and I wonder if it's because the last two setters are not confident, but I don't think so. I understand that they are trying to do well, but they are constantly thinking on the bench and signing, so I hope they will keep that part."

Regarding Hong Dong-sun, who has played in two consecutive games, he said, "He hasn't had many opportunities. He should have grown faster, but he still seems to be taking chances this season, so I have a positive feeling that we have found a good player in the generation change. I have high expectations for him to do even better in the future." He praised the player.

Currently, Jeon Kwang-in, who is not in top form due to injury, is training. Coach Choi Tae-woong said, "I need to increase the amount of training. If he does, he will 카지노사이트 have pain in his ankle and he will have to rehabilitate again, which will be very difficult. It should have been done in the off-season, but I couldn't do it, so I focused on the game, so I only gave him a break, so I think I'm having problems with my physical condition in terms of training. I have to increase the amount of training because of the ankle, but at the same time I have to make adjustments within it."
