Professional volleyball women’s Heungkuk Life Insurance missed a golden opportunity to rise to the top in front of a full crowd.
Heungkuk Life Insurance lost with a set score of 1-3 (12-25 19-25 26-24 20-25) in a home game against IBK Industrial Bank in the 5th round of the Dodram 2022-23 V-League Women’s Division held at Samsan World Gymnasium in Incheon on the 11th.
As a result, Heungkuk Life Insurance, who recorded 7 losses (20 wins) in the season, stopped at 60 points and failed to beat the lead Hyundai Engineering & Construction (61 points).
Heungkuk Life Insurance took the opportunity to rise to the sole lead for the first time this season. Hyundai E&C, which had maintained its leading position by winning 15 consecutive wins at the start of this season, began to falter after foreign player Yasmin Bedart (registered name: Yasmin) left in December of last year due to a back injury.
Hyundai E&C succeeded in maintaining its leading position by enduring well with 7 wins and 5 losses with only domestic players during the period without Yasmin, but allowed Heungkuk Life Insurance to pursue to the bottom of the chin.
However, Heungkuk Life Insurance has never surpassed Hyundai E&C. On December 29 of last year, Yasmin won against Hyundai Engineering and Construction, and at one point tied the score, but the gap widened again.
Heungkuk Life Insurance scored a shutout victory against Hyundai E&C on the 7th expedition and tied once again in terms of points, but this time it was also pushed out of the number of wins and failed to rise to the top. 바카라
A golden opportunity came to Heungkuk Life Insurance, which seldom overtook Hyundai E&C. Hyundai E&C, which had been tied on points, was beaten by the lowest ranked Pepper Savings Bank the day before with a set score of 2-3, adding only one victory point.
If Heungkuk Life Insurance had won against IBK Industrial Bank, it could finally rise to the sole lead. As the anticipation for first place was reflected, 5,800 full spectators came to the Samsan World Gymnasium where the game was held to watch the game of Heungkuk Life Insurance.
However, the result was an unexpected victory for IBK Industrial Bank. IBK Industrial Bank, which had never won against Heungkuk Life Insurance in four face-to-face matches this season, easily won the first set 25-12, predicting a change.
Heungkuk Life Insurance, which was blocked by the blocking wall of IBK Industrial Bank and gave up even the second set, launched a counterattack with Kim Yeon-kyung in the third set.
Kim Yeon-kyung, who had been somewhat sluggish in the first and second sets, gained momentum by taking responsibility for all of the team’s five points in the early third set. In the end, Heungkuk Life Insurance set off a counterattack by making up for one set with the performance of Kim Yeon-kyung, who concentrated 9 points only in the 3rd set.
However, Heungkuk Life’s counterattack ended here. In the 4th set, 6-9, the opposing foreign player Santana scored consecutively, and setter Lee Won-jung’s overnet error came out, leading to 6-12. In the end, Heungkuk Life Insurance gave up even the 4th set and recorded a disappointing defeat.
