After losing five in a row, they won two in a row and six in a row. The season record is 2-11. It's a harsh reality for the 'volleyball master' Hyundai Capital.

Hyundai Capital lost to Samsung Fire in the third round of the Dodram 2023-2024 season at Yoo Yoo Soon Gymnasium in Cheonan on the 5th with a set score of 2 to 3.

Hyundai changed the atmosphere by inserting Kim Myung-kwan in place of setter Lee Hyun-seung and won the third set after a close deuce battle. However, they quickly collapsed in the fourth set. It was the same flow and the same result as the match against Samsung Fire on the 1st.

After the match, Hyundai Capital head coach Choi Tae-woong sighed, saying, "The problem is that we keep going to the fifth set when we shouldn't." "We don't have enough backbone. We will play the remaining matches with multiple sets," he added.

Setter Kim Myung-kwan, who was unexpectedly substituted, shined. Coach Choi Tae-woong said, "Lee Hyun-seung is not doing well with his game plan and promised play, but I understood that last year he was nervous because he was young. Now he has to take off his youthful tee," he emphasized.

Hyundai Capital recently changed its captain from Jeon Kwang-in to Moon Sung-min. The reason for the change was Jeon's physical condition. The captain was asked to drop the weight and focus on the game, and on this day, Jeon scored 14 points (59.1% attack success rate) with a lighter body. Coach Choi Tae-woong also praised his play, saying, "It was good to see him leading the team."

Veteran middle blocker Choi Min-ho also contributed to the team with 바카라 blocks (3) and good serves. However, they lost the match.

Coach Choi Tae-woong said, "Ahmed did his part. Our team is 2% short and it's not easy to make up for that," said Choi. "We won the set with our serve and lost the set with their serve," he reflected.

"Samsung Fire's younger players have grown a lot and are playing good volleyball. Even though we lost, it was a good match for our team."
