“If we work together, our performance will improve... We will attack Pakistan with good height with serves.”

 

Lim Do-heon, head coach of the men's volleyball team, who narrowly advanced to the round of 12 of the Hangzhou Asian Games, put his life on the line by hitting Bae Su-jin on his way to the gold medal. 온라인카지노사이트 

 

The Korean national team defeated Cambodia in the second round of the Group C preliminary round of the tournament held at the Linping Sports Center in Hangzhou, China on the 21st and advanced to the round of 12 with second place in the group (1 win, 1 loss).

 

To win the gold medal, they must defeat Pakistan (ranked 51st in the world) in the round of 12 and then win four more times in the semifinals, semifinals, and final.

 

Unlike the preliminaries, this is a ‘guillotine’ match where not even a single loss can be tolerated.

 

This is why the national team is trying to think positively, saying that it is better to have experienced one loss early on.

 

Coach Lim Do-heon met with reporters after the game that day and said, "The path (from the previous day's loss to the championship) is bound to be different, but since the goal is gold medals anyway, I think it's the same path."

 

He added, "We have to beat Bae Su-jin one game at a time and play the game."

 

“He expressed his determination.

 

At the same time, he said, "Because we gave the players, including Jeon Kwang-in, a general rest, we will think of each game as the final and give our all."

 

The national team, which suffered a shock loss to India the day before, recovered its performance from the second and third sets that day.

 

In the first set, against amateur-level Cambodia, they gave up 4 blocking points and committed 11 offensive errors.

 

Coach Lim said, “Yesterday was the first game, so the players felt pressure and made a lot of mistakes, which made it difficult,” and reflected, “If we work together in the future, I think we will have a good game.”

 

Regarding his performance in the first set that day, he said, "The opponent's serve was much better than I expected."

 

Regarding Jeong Ji-seok, who rested the day before due to back pain, he said, "I took medicine and received treatment, and he is said to have improved a lot.

 

I plan to use him (in the game) when necessary in the future."

 

In the round of 12 against Pakistan, we must prepare for an 'iron wall' created by 205cm tall aposite spiker Murad Khan and middle blocker Abdul Zahir.

 

Coach Lim said, "Pakistan has good height, so we need to shake the serve a lot so that they can play left and right," and added, "I think (the game management) should be focused on blocking and defense."
