“Don’t you guys want to win?”

When 3 sets were completed, the set score was 1 to 2. The height of the opponent who inflicted the only defeat in the first round was not easy. They also tasted defeat in the third set, which was a close match between the main guns of both teams.

At this time, a word from the head coach fell like thunder on the players’ heads. The eyes of Heungkuk Life Insurance players have changed. It seemed like the desire for revenge for the previous reverse sweep loss was burning. Instead, the CheongKwanJang players who were winning flinched.

The result of the ‘fight of wits’ was a double electrode. Heungkuk Life Insurance achieved a come-from-behind victory with a set score of 3-2 in the Jeonggwanjang match on the 21st, and raced to 6 consecutive wins. On the other hand, Cheong Kwan Jang suffered 4 consecutive losses.

Coach Marcelo Abondanza said, “Our team wasn’t the best, but it feels good to win,” but expressed his dissatisfaction, saying, “The ups and downs of our performance are too severe. When we’re up, we show a good game…”

Still, Yelena survived, and Kim Yeon-kyung’s presence in the clutch stood out as expected. Lee Won-jeong’s ball distribution is also gaining momentum day by day. Coach Abondanza was also pleased with libero Do Soo-bin, who is filling the void left by Kim Hae-ran, saying, “He is the player who has grown the most this season.”

Regarding Lee Joo-ah, who played with 12 points and 4 blocks that day, he said, “She is a player with really great potential. She can play volleyball at a much higher level than she does now. It is important to realize that for yourself.” He also stood out as he poured out criticism like a thunderbolt after replacing Lee Joo-ah after a serve error in the first set. Coach Abondanza repeatedly emphasized, “We will talk more. He is a player we need to keep pushing.”

Lee Joo-ah, whom we met after the game, laughed and said, “It was a serve that I had prepared in advance, but I made a mistake. It was so bad that the back of my head stung.” Next, when coach Abondanza shared his opinion about Lee Joo-ah, he added, “Coach always pushes her to ‘be more energetic’. The players can’t keep up with that passion. I want to repay the trust.”

“After losing the 3rd set, (Kim) Yeon-kyung said, ‘Let’s do it, we can do it.’ The coach also said, ‘Don’t you guys want to win?’ At that moment, I went into the 4th set with the mindset of ‘Yes! We have to win no matter what!’ I went in. Thanks to that, I got good results.”

In the 4th and 5th sets, Jeong Kwan-jang’s receiving wavered and collapsed, and the final blocking in the 5th set, 14-9, was Joo-ah Lee’s responsibility. 스포츠토토

Lee Joo-ah stuck her tongue out, saying, “The sisters are so good,” and then steeled herself, saying, “My goal is to win. Of course I can do it.”
