In the professional volleyball men's division, KEPCO won its fourth straight win. On the other hand, KB Insurance was stuck in a chain of 10 consecutive losses.

KEPCO won with a set score of 3-0 (25-21 29-27 25-23) in the men's match against KB Insurance in the 'Dodram 2023-2024 V-League' held at Uijeongbu Gymnasium on the 24th.

KEPCO (5 wins, 6 losses, 15 points), which achieved 4 consecutive wins, maintained 5th place. Although they have the same points as 4th place OK Financial Group (6 wins, 4 losses, 15 points), they were unable to move up the rankings due to the number of games won.

KB Insurance, the lowest ranked company, has not won for over a month. After winning the KEPCO match on the 17th of last month, which was the first game of the season, they lost 10 games. The point difference with 6th place Hyundai Capital (2 wins, 8 losses, 8 points) is 1 point.

KEPCO Thais led the team to victory by scoring 17 points, the most in the team. Lim Seong-jin and Shin Young-seok added 13 and 11 points, respectively.

KB Insurance Viyena exploded with 30 points, including 4 blocking, but the light faded due to the team's loss. The remaining players’ scoring support was weak.

KEPCO won the first set with Thais scoring the most goals.

With the score tied at 13-13, KEPCO scored 6 points in a row through Lim Seong-jin's rearguard attack, Shin Young-seok's fast attack, and Thais' open attack.

Once again, Shin Young-seok's quick attack hit the mark and they reached the 20-point mark first, and with the scores of Thais and Lim Seong-jin, they reached the set point. At 24-21, Thais succeeded in attacking the rear and settled the first set.

After a fierce battle, KEPCO won the second set.

By the middle of the second set, Lim Seong-jin, Thais, and Shin Young-seok scored evenly, and KEPCO took the lead with 16-12. However, KB Insurance tied the score at 19-19 thanks to Hankook Min's serve score, Viena's opening, and a rear attack.

KB Insurance, which continued the momentum, was ahead 24-22, but Viena's attack was blocked by Lim Seong-jin, and the subsequent time lag attack also missed, resulting in a deuce.

KEPCO laughed at 27-27, which was achieved by exchanging scores with each other. After Thais' quick opening, Shin Seung-hoon of KB Insurance committed a critical mistake.

KEPCO, which was down 9-10 at the beginning of the third set, turned it around to 13-11 with three points from opponents Beomsil and Shin Youngseok.

Afterwards, Seo Jae-deok and Thais showed off their keen sense of scoring and widened the gap to 20-16. KEPCO, which maintained its lead in the second half, took the match point due to a serve error by Korean Min, and even Viena's serve was caught in the net, taking the win. 토토사이트
