The latest report of the second round of the World Women's Volleyball League, in a game without suspense, the host Brazilian women's volleyball team finally defeated the South Korean team 3:0 and won two consecutive victories. The South Korean women's volleyball team has continued its losing streak, so far, the Korean women's volleyball team has achieved 29 consecutive defeats in the World League, although everyone knows that the strength of this team is very weak, but it is really difficult to understand that it can set such a shameful record.
In the 2021 World Women's Volleyball League, the South Korean team ended with three consecutive defeats, and in the next two years of the World Women's Volleyball League, in the 12 games of the regular season each season, the South Korean team did not win any game, and ended with 12 consecutive defeats, plus the first two rounds of this competition, they all lost 0:3, thus creating a shameful record of 29 consecutive defeats. Although the Korean women's volleyball team has no glorious record in history, in the era of Kim Ruanjing, they were once able to reach the top four in the world, and it is also a relatively normal thing to enter the top eight in the world series. In the 12 years of the London Olympics, they became the best Asian team and the only team to reach the semifinals, but as Kim Junjing got older and even retired, the entire South Korean women's volleyball team fell into a situation where it was difficult to find a win in the World Series.
In the match with the Brazilian team, the South Korean women's volleyball team still did not score more than 20 points in one of the three games. In addition, they lost to the Chinese team 0:3 in the previous round, and there was also no game that could exceed 20 points, that is, they not only lost, but even made the opponent sweat and created a threat to the opponent. The Brazilian women's volleyball team did not adopt the strategy of playing as a substitute because the South Korean team was a weak team, and still discharged its strongest attack formation, responding to Kirch in the receiving position, Gabi and Cristina in the main offensive position played for a long time in this game. Bergman, who returned to the Brazilian women's volleyball team, did not get too many opportunities to play in this game.
The only thing South Korea did better was to control their own mistakes, and after the change of manager, their improvement in this area is very noticeable. They made just 12 mistakes of their own in the game, nine fewer than Brazil, but they were lackluster in other areas, especially in terms of initiative. In this game, the Korean women's volleyball team did not do as well as the first game, and the active offensive score was only 25 points, which is also a very important reason for restricting the Korean team to make a breakthrough. The South Korean women's volleyball team was the only one in the first game to score a double-double, and only scored 9 points in this game. How to cultivate a player who can score independently after Jin Ruanjing is a very important problem for the Korean women's volleyball team to break through the bottleneck of the record.
In this World Women's Volleyball League, the South Korean women's volleyball team still has a chance to end its losing streak, because this time there is a weaker team, that is, the Olympic host France.
The South Korean women's volleyball team performed so poorly, why was it never relegated? Because in 2019, when the FIVB changed the system of the World Women's Volleyball League, 12 core teams were established, including the Chinese team and the South Korean team, and these teams will not be relegated no matter how bad their performance is, but the good days of the Korean team are coming to an end, because this core team has a deadline, and 2024 is the day when the core team expires, which means that the Korean women's volleyball team will be directly relegated if it continues this state next year.
