If there is a magpie in traditional fairy tales, there is Yasmeen in the V-League who has returned the favor. Yasmeen Bedardt (Pepper Savings Bank) helped Hyundai Engineering & Construction win the championship title for the first time in 13 years since the 2010-2011 season and the first time in eight years after the 2015-2016 season. 토토사이트 순위
◆ Yasmine made the team laugh and cry at Hyundai Engineering & Construction
The story goes like this. Yasmeen wore Hyundai E&C's uniform as the second overall foreign player tryout for the 2021-2022 season. With a good height of 1m96 and overwhelming power, Yasmeen reigned as the top foreign player in 30 games during the 2021-2022 season, ranking fourth in scoring (674) and first in overall offense (47.30 percent). With Yasmeen's performance added to his good performance as a Korean player, Hyundai E&C recorded the highest winning percentage ever with 28 wins and 3 losses during the 2021-2022 season. The only regret is that the women's team was shut down early and the post season did not take place due to the novel coronavirus infection disease (COVID-19). There are no cases in sports, but if Hyundai E&C played the championship game that year, the record of winning the championship could have been advanced by two more years for the first time in 11 years.
Yasmeen's contract renewal was natural. He also wore a Hyundai E&C uniform during the 2022-2023 season, and continued to be strong from the previous season. Hyundai E&C has had an overwhelming start to its opening 15 consecutive games. However, Yasmeen will be away from the court due to a waist injury after playing 13 games in the early days of the season.
Hyundai E&C did not spare any support for Yasmeen's waist treatment. It was because of expectations that Yasmeen would return to the court. Yasmeen's position was vacant, and the team played solely for domestic players. Thanks to Hwang Yeon-ju, who reigned supreme as a native apogit spiker during his prime time, Hyundai E&C continued to take the lead for a long time despite Yasmeen's absence. However, in the end, Yasmeen failed to return to the court, and as Korean players tried to fill Yasmeen's absence, their main players were injured. Ibonne Montagno (Colombia), who was hired as Yasmeen's substitute, was not very satisfied with his performance compared to Yasmeen. In the end, Hyundai E&C, which finished the regular league in second place by losing the lead to Heungkuk Life Insurance at the end of the season, continued its loss in the playoffs. The team had to finish the season with two losses in two games without using its power once in the playoff against Korea Expressway Corporation, which ranked third.
◆ Yasmin Returns As Pepper Savings Bank Foreigner, Takes Heungkuk Life in Round 6
If you look at it up to this point, you may wonder why Yasmin is the hidden helper of Hyundai E&C's integrated victory in the 2023-2024 season. The interesting story begins now.
Yasmin, who completely shook off his back injury thanks to Hyundai Engineering & Construction's generous support, applied for a 2023-2024 tryout for foreign players, and again this time, he wore a Pepper Savings Bank uniform as the second overall pick. Yasmin, who returned, was not as strong as his first year in the V League, but he still showed off his strength. He played for Pepper Savings Bank, which has the lowest team strength, so he suffered some losses in the record, but there was still only one reliable striker at Pepper Savings Bank.
Before playing at Pepper Savings Bank, Yasmeen used to be a guarantee check for victory when he played on the court in the V-League. He had 28 wins and 3 losses in his first year as a player, and 13 wins in the following year, recording a whopping 41 wins and 3 losses. However, Yasmeen failed to do so at Pepper Savings Bank. In addition to Yasmeen, Pepper Savings Bank, which celebrated its third year as a member of the 7th team, also beat Park Jeong-ah, one of the best outfielder in the F.A., to its credit standing, but for the third year, Yasmeen was beholden to a "score vending machine."
However, Pepper Savings Bank dominated the fierce competition between Hyundai Engineering & Construction and Heungkuk Life Insurance for the lead in the sixth round. It has decided whether to take the lead in the league or not.
Early last month, when Hyundai Engineering & Construction and Heungkuk Life Insurance were in the midst of a leading competition, Hyundai E&C lost 2-3 in an away match of the sixth round against Korea Expressway Corporation on June 6 after a close game of full set. With only one more point to add, Hyundai E&C failed to widen its gap with Heungkuk Life Insurance (73, 26-7 losses) with 74 points (24 wins and nine losses).
Two days later, on the 8th, Heungkuk Life Insurance met with Pepper Savings Bank. Heungkuk Life Insurance was expected to win in a row, and if it earned three points as expected, it would have been possible to regain the lead. However, Yasmeen was responsible for 43.51 percent of the team's offense, driving 38 points at an offensive success rate of 53.73 percent, and spearheading Pepper Savings Bank's 3-1 victory. It was an unexpected defeat for Heungkuk Life. In fact, it was safe to say that this match would determine the ranking battle of the 2023-2024 season. The next day, on the 9th, Hyundai Engineering & Construction beat IBK Industrial Bank 3-0, widening the gap between Heungkuk Life Insurance to four, and gaining an opportunity to win on its own.
Hyundai Engineering & Construction and Heungkuk Life had their last showdown in the regular season on Tuesday. It was a six-point match. Heungkuk Life Insurance, which escaped from a shock loss at the match against Pepper Savings Bank, narrowed the gap to one by beating Hyundai E&C 3-0, but Hyundai E&C was already given the credit for winning the title on its own.
Heungkuk Life Insurance beat GS Caltex 3-0 in the last game of the season held on Saturday and finished the season with 79 points (28 wins and 8 losses). It has regained No. 1 ranking for a while.
The next day, Hyundai Engineering & Construction faced Pepper Savings Bank, which had 77 points (25 wins and 10 losses). Hyundai E&C, which lost in the match, was able to rank No. 1 in the regular season league with just 30 points. When Yasmeen met his former team, he violently bombarded the court. Pepper Savings Bank won the first set. It was a desperate moment when the team lost even one more set and its No. 1 ranking in the regular season league will go up in smoke. Hyundai E&C players worked hard and secured 80 points (26 wins and 10 losses) to rank No. 1 in the regular season league with 2,3 and 4 sets down. Yasmeen also did his best by earning 34 points, but the team lost. It was the best result for Hyundai E&C.
◆ The advantage of being No. 1 in the regular league, divided the joys and sorrows of the championship match.
The advantage of Hyundai E&C's No. 1 ranking in the regular league was too sweet. Heungkuk Life Insurance, which is playing in the playoff by just one point, had a fierce battle with Jeonggwanjang, who is playing volleyball in the spring for the first time in seven years.
