Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance defeats OK Financial Group and leaps to 4th place… Sangnoksu Gym escapes 13th consecutive loss

Women’s professional volleyball team GS Caltex continued its glimmer of hope for spring volleyball.

GS Caltex defeated Pepper Savings Bank with a set score of 3-0 (25-22 25-22 25-12) in the Dodram 2023-2024 V-League women’s home game held at Jangchung Gymnasium in Seoul on the 3rd.

With both teams having three games left until the end of the regular season, the matchup on the 7th is expected to be a watershed in the final postseason competition.

Basically, the 1st to 3rd place teams in the regular league advance to the V-League postseason, but if the point difference between 3rd and 4th places is 3 or less, a semi-playoff match is held.

With So-Hwi Kang missing from the starting lineup due to recent poor performance, GS Caltex had a hard time against Pepper Savings Bank, the lowest ranked player, in the early part of the first set.

At 20-19, where the gap was barely widen, Giselle Silva (registered name Silva) played the role of the solution by scoring consecutive strong spikes.

Afterwards, opponent Park Jung-ah’s attack left the court, and Silva smoothly scored a toss from behind.

Silva, who was also responsible for the 25th point, scored 12 points alone during one set.

GS Caltex was down 12-17 in the second set, but succeeded in turning around the game thanks to Silva’s firepower and the scoring support of domestic players.

Seo-yeon Yoo opened the chase with an open score, and Pepper Savings Bank contributed two points with Yasmin Bedart (registered name Yasmin)’s overnet and open out.

Silva scored three consecutive points to make it 18-17, and Yoo Seo-yeon and Kim Ji-yeon widened the score with quick opens and serve aces, respectively.

Afterwards, the second set ended with Kang So-hwi’s quick open and Moon Ji-yoon’s quick attack.

GS Caltex, which was on the cusp of victory, achieved a shutout victory thanks to the surprising performances of middle blockers Oh Se-yeon (5 points) and Moon Ji-yoon (4 points).

Silva led the GS Caltex attack with 24 points (attack success rate 51.11%), and other players such as Oh Se-yeon (8 points), Kang So-hwi (7 points), Darin Pinsu-wan (registered name Darin, 6 points), and Moon Ji-yoon (6 points) Their attacks were also impressive.

Pepper Savings Bank featured ‘ssangpo’ Yasmin (13 points) and Park Jeong-ah (12 points), but it was not enough.

In the men’s match at Sangnoksu Gymnasium in Ansan, Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance won 3-1 (25-19 27-25 16-25 25-20) over the home team OK Financial Group.

Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance, which escaped two consecutive losses, rose to 4th place with 18 wins, 15 losses, and 48 points, pushing Korea Electric Power Corporation (16 wins, 17 losses, 47 points) to 5th place.

With three games remaining in the regular season, Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance narrowed the gap with third-place OK Financial Group (18 wins, 15 losses, 52 points) to 4 points.

Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance, which holds the record for the most championships in the V-League by winning a total of eight championships, last won the 2013-2014 season.

The last postseason advancement was in the 2017-2018 season.

Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance succeeded in breaking Sangnoksu Gymnasium’s losing streak at ’13’, which had continued since the game on November 13, 2019.

On this day, Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance had 12 sub-aces, overwhelming OK Financial Group, which had only 5.

Yosvani Hernández (registered name: Yosvani) scored 21 points, including 6 serve points, and Jargalchukt Engherden (registered name Eddie) dominated the court with 25 points, including 3 serve aces.

25 points is Eddie’s new record for most points scored in one game.

Here, Kim Jeong-ho contributed with 11 points and 2 blocking and 2 serving points, and Kim Jun-woo also scored 11 points with 4 blocking alone.

Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance, which easily won the first set, was dragged to a set point of 23-24 in the second set, but made a deuce due to an opponent’s error.

At 25-25, they took the second set thanks to OK Financial Group’s Song Hee-chae’s serve failure and Leonardo Leyva Martinez (registered name: Leo)’s consecutive failures.

Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance, which was lopsided in the 3rd set, scored 5 consecutive points at 20-20 in the 4th set to dominate 3 points.

OK Financial Group, which could have crossed the 9th division for spring volleyball advancement by adding 3 points on this day, suffered a fatal blow when Leo (25 points) strained his back in a close match at the end of the 4th set.

Men’s Volleyball, Last-Minute Sprint ‘Coming Soon’

OK금융그룹, 플레이오프 직행 티켓 ‘승점 4’를 지켜라 특명 < 농구/배구 < 스포츠 < 기사본문 - 기호일보 - 아침을 여는 신문

FOUR TEAMS COMPETE IN ‘SPRING VOLLEYBALL’… MEN’S VOLLEYBALL, LAST-MINUTE SPRINT ‘COMING SOON’

 

From OK Financial Group in 3rd place to Hyundai Capital in 6th place, everyone has ‘spring volleyball visibility’.

In the women’s division, only the battle for the lead between Hyundai Engineering & Construction and Heungkuk Life Insurance remains.

The men’s professional volleyball division, which is nearing the end of the 2023-2024 season, is still fighting fiercely for rankings. 바카라사이트

The four teams ranked 3rd to 6th are more intense than the competition for the lead in the regular league between 1st place Korean Air (22 wins, 11 losses, 67 points) with 3 games remaining and 2nd place Woori Card (21 wins, 11 losses, 63 points) with 4 games remaining.

This is a fierce competition for ‘Spring Volleyball’ tickets.

With three games remaining each, 3rd place OK Financial Group (18 wins, 15 losses, 52 points), 4th place Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance (18 wins, 15 losses, 48 points), and 5th place Korea Electric Power Corporation (16 wins, 17 losses, 47 points), here.

With 4 games remaining, 6th place Hyundai Capital (14 wins, 18 losses, 44 points) will compete for spring volleyball tickets.

In the professional volleyball V-League, a semi-playoff (quasi-PO) single match is only possible if the point difference between the 3rd and 4th place teams is less than 3.

If the semi-PO is not held, the 2nd to 3rd place teams will immediately enter the best-of-three playoffs (PO).

With the current points lined up closely, there is a high possibility that the men’s division will achieve semi-PO success.

OK Financial Group, ranked 3rd, meets Korea Electric Power Corporation (7th), Korean Air (10th), and Hyundai Capital (15th) in the remaining three games.

All of these teams are in the midst of competing for rankings, so they are formidable opponents, but even if they get just one win, they can get close to advancing to at least the semi-PO level.

If they can maintain the ‘4 points’ gap with 4th place Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance until the end, they can avoid the burdensome semi-PO single match and advance directly to PO.

If OK Financial Group participates in spring volleyball this season, it will be three years since the 2020-2021 season.

Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance, ranked 4th in the ‘traditional family’ aiming to advance to spring volleyball for the first time in 6 years since the 2017-2018 season, took a breather by winning the OK Financial Group match on the 3rd.

Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance must win the ‘Classic Match’ against Hyundai Capital on the 8th and then add points in the matches against Korea Electric Power Corporation (13th) and Woori Card (16th).

5th place KEPCO has already met 1st place Korean Air and 2nd place Woori Card, so it is advantageous that the remaining 3 games are against OK Financial Group, Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance, and KB Insurance (17th).

Hyundai Capital, ranked 6th, is the only spring volleyball candidate with 4 games remaining, and is in a burdensome situation as they must achieve at least 3 wins.

In the women’s division, only the ranking competition between 1st place Hyundai Engineering & Construction and 2nd place Heungkuk Life Insurance remains, and the rankings of the remaining teams appear to have been solidified.

The gap between Hyundai Engineering & Construction (24 wins, 8 losses, 73 points) and Heungkuk Life Insurance (25 wins, 7 losses, 70 points), who have 4 games left each, is 3 points.

The fate of the two teams, who each lost once to 3rd place CheongKwanJang in the 6th round, is likely to be different in the matchup that will take place at Suwon Gymnasium on the 12th.

If Hyundai Engineering & Construction wins, it will secure first place in the regular league and cross the 9th division ridge, and Heungkuk Life Insurance must take 3 points to come back and win.

If Heungkuk Life Insurance wins in a match between the two teams, it will have the advantage of taking the lead in multiple wins, which is the criterion for ranking when the points are the same.

Cheong Kwan Jang (19 wins, 14 losses, 58 points), who had 6 consecutive wins at the end of the season, has almost secured the 3rd place position, and 4th place GS Caltex (18 wins, 15 losses, 51 points), 7 points behind Cheong Kwan Jang, will play in the remaining 3 games.

Only by passing it on can you expect a semi-PO success.

Lens Abando’s Return to Professional Basketball, Jeong Kwan-jang, Defeats Sono

아반도 복귀 프로농구 정관장, 소노 꺾고 10연패 탈출(종합)

LENS ABANDO’S RETURN TO PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL, JEONG KWAN-JANG DEFEATS SONO AND ESCAPES 10th STRAIGHT LOSS

 

Professional basketball team’s Jeong Kwan-Jang broke its 10-game losing streak thanks to the performance of Lens Abando, who returned from injury.

CheongKwanJang won 92-87 in a home game against Goyang Sono in the 2023-2024 CheongKwanJang Professional Basketball Regular League held at Anyang Gymnasium in Gyeonggi-do on the 3rd.

After defeating Ulsan Hyundai Mobis 114-90 on January 21, Cheong Kwan-Jang, who had lost 10 consecutive KBL games, won for the first time in about 5 weeks.

Cheong Kwan-Jang, who recorded 14 wins and 31 losses, is still ranked 9th, but narrowed the gap with 8th place Sono (15 wins, 30 losses) to one game. 카지노사이트

He also shook off the pain of losing all four games to Sono this season.

Abando’s return on this day was a great help to Jeonggwanjang.

Abando was diagnosed with a fractured lumbar bone, sprained wrist ligament, and concussion while jumping and coming down during a match with Sono on December 28 last year, and had to focus on treatment and rehabilitation for over two months.

In particular, during this process, it was pointed out that Sono’s foreign player Chinanu Onuaku pushed Abando too hard, and there was even talk that Abando would take legal action against Onuaku.

Coincidentally, Abando, who made his comeback against Sono on this day, added one point with a free throw following a steal with 1 minute and 37 seconds left in the game, which was trailing at 86-82.

During this quick attack, Lens Abando fell to the court due to a foul by Sono Lee Jeong-hyeon and appeared to be somewhat shocked, but fortunately this time, Abando continued to play.

In addition, Abando played a decisive role by drawing a foul from Onuaku during a 3-point shot, one minute before the end of the game when Lee Jung-hyun hit a 3-point shot and was trailing by 2 points.

Abando made all three free throws, bringing the score back to 90-85, and Cheong Kwan-Jang’s victory became likely.

Sono later caught up with a 3-point lead thanks to Onuaku’s dunk and had another opportunity to attack, but Lee Jeong-hyun’s 3-point shots were missed in succession and they were unable to tie the score.

For Cheong Kwan-Jang, Robert Carter scored 19 points and 7 rebounds, and Abando scored 17 points, 4 rebounds, 4 steals, and 3 assists.

For Sono, Dajuan Summers was diagnosed with a hamstring injury for four weeks, making it difficult for him to play in the remaining games. Onuaku, who played 39 minutes and 51 seconds alone, scored 26 points and 13 rebounds, and Jeong-hyun Lee and Ji-hoo Kim scored 18 points each.

On this day, the Anyang crowd did not hide their dissatisfaction with Abando’s injury by booing Onuaku every time he caught the ball.

In the 2nd and 3rd place match between Suwon KT and Changwon LG held in Suwon, LG won 75-60.

LG Yang Hong-seok scored 20 points against KT, where he played until last season, scoring the most points in the team.

LG, which won 3 consecutive wins and accumulated 28 wins and 17 losses, narrowed the gap with 2nd place KT (29 wins, 15 losses) to 1.5 games.

Suwon, Which Attracted the Largest Number of Spectators in Division 2

'나의 수원은 죽었다' 2023년, 수원은 어쩌다 강등팀이 되었나[오!쎈 수원]

SUWON, WHICH ATTRACTED THE LARGEST NUMBER OF SPECTATORS IN DIVISION 2, OVERCAME NUMERICAL INFERIORITY TO ACHIEVE ITS FIRST WIN IN K-LEAGUE 2

 

Director Yeom Ki-hoon kept his promise to ‘hit first’…

Mulich multi-goal, beating Chungnam Asan 2-1 … About 14,000 people entered Suwon World Cup Stadium

Suwon Samsung, a professional soccer team, overcame numerical inferiority and won the first K-League 2 match in the club’s history. 온라인카지노

This is the first win of coach Ki-Hoon Yeom, the ‘official head coach’, achieved in front of the largest audience in K League 2 history.

Suwon got off to a good start by defeating Chungnam Asan FC 2-1 in the Hana Bank K League 2 2024 1st round home game held at Suwon World Cup Stadium in Gyeonggi-do on the 3rd.

Suwon, who suffered a shocking relegation to last place in K-League 1 last season, took the first step towards ‘challenge for promotion’ by taking 3 points.

Coach Yeom, who experienced relegation to the second division as an acting manager, kept the promise he made after becoming the official manager in the first game.

Coach Yeom announced at the opening media day on the 26th of last month that he would play ‘soccer that hits first.’

Last season, when he had only 8 wins in 38 games in the first division, he made a pledge that he would change the disappointing situation of giving up leads from the first half.

As the head coach boasted, Suwon took the lead by scoring the first goal in the 21st minute of the first half.

Mulic, a foreign striker who is over 2m tall, became the protagonist of Suwon’s ‘K League 2 first goal’.

As Chungnam Asan’s Kang Jun-hyuk failed to properly handle the ball, Lee Sang-min, who dug into the right side, quickly snatched it and ran into the penalty area.

Lee Sang-min delivered the ball to the front of the goal, and Mulic calmly kicked the ball home, shaking Chungnam Asan’s net.

A crisis came in the 40th minute of the first half for Suwon, which had overwhelmed South Chungcheong Asan, leading in ball possession by 64% to 36% until the 30th minute of the first half.

During Chungnam Asan’s counterattack, Jo Yun-seong knocked down Juninho, who rushed into the penalty area, from behind.

Cho Yun-seong, who transferred from Asan, South Chungcheong Province, ahead of this season, was given a red card after a video review (VAR).

Although Suwon was outnumbered early on, they scored an additional goal before the end of the first half.

This time, Mulic came forward again.

Mulic, who took the free kick from behind the penalty arc in extra time in the first half, hit the corner of the goal with a sharp right-footed shot.

South Chungcheong Asan began an offensive in the second half by taking advantage of its numerical superiority and scored a make-up goal in the 23rd minute of the second half.

Rookie midfielder Jeong Ma-ho, born in 2005, calmly completed Park Dae-hoon’s pass deep into the penalty box and scored his professional debut goal.

However, South Chungcheong Asan was unable to open Suwon’s goal once more and had to accept a 1-2 loss.

New South Chungcheong Asan coach Kim Hyun-seok, who worked at the club’s front office and took over leadership of the team after last season, postponed his debut win until the next opportunity.

14,196 people attended the first game of the K League 2 for Suwon, which is considered the most popular club in Korea.

More spectators visited Suwon World Cup Stadium than last year’s K League 1 opening match against Gwangju FC (10,348).

The number of 14,916 people is the highest number in K League 2 after counting paid spectators.

It exceeded the attendance of 13,340 for the game between Busan I’Park and Bucheon FC held at Busan Asiad Main Stadium last season.

Suwon general manager Park Gyeong-hoon said, “Even though we were relegated, so many fans came to see us.

I know very well that this is an expression of expectations that we will definitely achieve promotion this season.

We will do our best to repay those expectations.”

LeBron James, The First Player in NBA History to Score 40,000 Points

'킹' 제임스, 또 새 역사 썼다...전무후무한 4만 득점 달성

‘KING’ LEBRON JAMES, THE FIRST PLAYER IN NBA HISTORY TO SCORE 40,000 POINTS IN THE REGULAR SEASON

 

LeBron James (USA), the ‘King’ of the National Basketball Association (NBA), became the first player in history to reach the milestone of scoring 40,000 points in the regular season.

James, a member of the LA Lakers, scored 9 points until the beginning of the second quarter in a home game against the Denver Nuggets in the 2023-2024 NBA regular season held at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, California, USA on the 3rd (Korean time), becoming the first player in NBA history to reach 40,000 points in the regular league.

The score was surpassed. 카지노사이트

James, who had scored 39,991 points before this game and was 9 points away from exceeding 40,000 points, scored a layup in 1 minute and 21 seconds in the second quarter to reach 40,000 points.

In this day’s game, James scored 26 points and 9 assists, increasing his regular league career score to 40,017, but his team lost to Denver 114-124.

James surpassed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s regular season scoring record of 38,387 points during last season, and reached the 40,000 point mark this year.

In the NBA, which was launched in 1946, only seven players, including James and Abdul-Jabbar, have scored over 30,000 points.

Of these, James is the only active player.

James, who was selected by the Cleveland Cavaliers as the first overall pick in the 2003 rookie draft, is showing off his age by averaging 25.3 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 7.9 assists this season.

Born in 1984, he is the oldest player in the league, and his son Bronny, born in 2004, is expected to enter the NBA soon, so there is a possibility that there will be a scene where father and son stand on the court together.

After joining Cleveland, James went through Miami Heat (2010), Cleveland (2014), and has been with the LA Lakers since 2018.

He scored his NBA regular season debut with a mid-range shot in a game against the Sacramento Kings in October 2003, and became the youngest player to surpass 10,000 points (23 years, 59 days) in February 2008.

Previously, the youngest person to score 10,000 points was Kobe Bryant at 24 years and 193 days.

His 20,000 points mark was surpassed against the Golden State Warriors in January 2013, and his 30,000 points mark was achieved against the San Antonio Spurs in January 2018.

LeBron James is the youngest record holder for both 20,000 and 30,000 points.

All previous records were held by Bryant.

His first points, 10,000 points, and 30,000 points were achieved while in Cleveland, and his 20,000th points were recorded in a Miami uniform.

James also scored 40,000 points on this day, becoming the first player in the league to achieve all 40,000 points, 10,000 assists, and 10,000 rebounds.

LeBron James is also the only player to score 10,000 points, 10,000 assists, and 10,000 rebounds.

In an interview conducted around the time of achieving the record, James said, “I am happy to have achieved a record that no one has achieved,” and added, “It is very meaningful to achieve this record while competing against such great players.”

He said, “I wasn’t particularly conscious of the scoring record,” and “I went into the game and did my best, and as a result, the scoring record followed.”

He added, “I have never set a goal to become the league’s top scorer,” adding, “However, I am still active and will continue to score goals, so my scoring record will continue to increase as long as I play.”
