On November 1st, a match between Hyundai Engineering & Construction and Heungkuk Life Insurance, which have won two consecutive games, was held at Suwon Indoor Gymnasium.
I saw the two strong teams competing each other through streaming service on the internet!XD
In the first set, the players of both teams seemed to be frozen by tension, and Yasmin scored the last point of the first set, and Hyundai Engineering & Construction took the lead.
In the second set, Heungkuk Life Insurance's Kim Mi-yeon's toss was fantastic, and Kim Yeon-kyung scored many points with a time-based attack. However, Hyundai Engineering & Construction's attack was also formidable.
Yasmin and Yang Hyo-jin's good RBI offense and Kim Da-in's sensible toss created many open chances for Yang Hyo-jin. What I felt the most while watching the second set was that all the players seemed nervous and there were many serve misses. As a result, Heungkuk Life finished 25-21 in the second set and took the second set.
In the third set, Yasmin's sensible offense led to many goals. The defense of both teams in this set was fantastic. There was a long rally between the two teams, and there was a lot of applause from the crowd. Hyundai Engineering & Construction's Lee Da-hyun's two consecutive serve scores tilted the atmosphere toward Hyundai Engineering & Construction, and the third set was brought by Yasmin's last attack.
The fourth set was held, and Hyundai Engineering & Construction scored its first goal with Yang Hyo-jin's professional blocking. The second blocking in a row brought momentum at the beginning of the game. On the other hand, Heungkuk Life Insurance had a gloomy atmosphere from the third set.
By the end of the game, the gap between Hyundai Engineering & Construction and Heungkuk Life Insurance widened as Yelena was injured and Kim Yeon-kyung was also absent for the next game. The result of the game was 3-1, with Hyundai Engineering & Construction winning three consecutive games.
I loved the attack chemistry between Kim Da-in and Yang Hyo-jin in this game. Kim Da-in's elaborate toss and Yang Hyo-jin's sensible smashing are bound to impress. As it is a match between the two strong teams, Hyundai Engineering & Construction players must have been very nervous, but I am glad that they showed good performance. I know the next opponent is also a strong team, but I hope they will continue their unbeaten streak in the next game.
