Head coach Ko Hee-jin, Jeong Kwan-jang, did not lose his composure even on the edge of the cliff. He is determined to overcome the current crisis with a smile and a positive mind.
Jeong Kwan-jang will play the third match of the championship game against Heungkuk Life Insurance at Daejeon Chungmu Gymnasium on the 4th. Won Jeong-ji lost both the first and second games in Incheon. If he loses one more game, he will be the runner-up. The second game was painful. It overturned a 2-0 set-score lead.
Yellow silver's back hurts as a main liberator, and setter Yeom Hye-sun has a bad knee. The players are fighting.
Coach Koh, who met ahead of the game, said "The focus was on recovery and treatment of injured players. And he paid attention to detailed tactics such as defense and blocking" he said.
Coach Koh continued "It may be the last game. The players are hard and sick, but I think they will show their fighting spirit," he added.
Surprised by the huge number of reporters, Koh played his last championship game here as a player 10 years ago. Compared to then, I realize the popularity of women's volleyball. It's a game that gets a lot of attention, and I also want Kim Yeon-kyung to play one more game. It's a joke and it's sincere. Wouldn't the whole nation expect it?" he said, giving a laugh.
Coach Ko said lastly, `The players are having a hard time, but I'll do my best. I'll try to make it a touching game. I also tried to make the players laugh and relax, saying let's try 'overcome ' together. I'll really get over it today." As for the tactical part "You have to go in as the sub wants. If a bad ball comes up from the opponent, we can block or defend effectively", he predicted.
