Just as all the teams are actively preparing for the upcoming World League, the South Korean team that will meet the Chinese women's volleyball team in the first round has suffered a heavy blow, and the list of 18 people in the World League has been urgently modified to adjust the number of players to 15 people, because their main receivers and main secondary attacks have been injured in training.
It is understood that the team's main receiver Jin Xizhen had left leg knee discomfort in the daily training of the national team, and after examination, two bone fragments were found and needed surgical treatment. At present, Kim Hee-jin hopes to take a conservative approach to remove the broken bones first, so that it will only take about 45 days to recover, and if all goes well, there is still hope of participating in the Tokyo Olympic Games, and if major surgery takes a 6-month recovery period, it is ironclad to miss the Olympic Games.
The main deputy attack Kim So-chi was absent from the World League because of an abdominal muscle strain in training, and the main attack Kim Joo-heung was also unfortunately missed because of injury. The absence of Kim Hee-jin and Kim So-chi will be another major blow to the South Korean women's volleyball team, and the two can be said to be one of the few backbones in this aging team. Although Jin Xizhen has always been ridiculed by Chinese fans, calling it a "pseudo-strong reception", she still has a certain breakthrough ability in the international arena, especially when playing the Japanese women's volleyball team, she has played a strong nature.
Kim So-chi is a rare "violent secondary attack" in the secondary attack position of the South Korean women's volleyball team in recent years, compared to the softness of Liang Xiaozhen and Zheng Shiying, Kim So-chi's back flying ball can be described as the ferry artifact of the team's two-point attack round, although the scoring rate is not high, but at least she can play a run, attract the attention of the other side, and from time to time can also sneak attack successfully, reducing the offensive pressure of the fourth position. Without Kim Hee-jin and Kim So-chi, the competitiveness of the South Korean women's volleyball team will drop by a notch.
I have to say that the Korean women's volleyball team has really been a disaster this year. First of all, Li Duoying and Li Zaiying sister Hua were indefinitely banned due to the bullying incident, and then on the eve of the start of the national team training, 3 national team main players withdrew due to injury, including the third main attack Jiang Suhui, and now the two main players are injured again, and one of them is likely to miss the Olympics. As the captain, Jin Softjing is estimated to be helpless!
With the absence of the two main players, the current starting lineup of the South Korean women's volleyball team is expected to change greatly, and the 37-year-old veteran Han Songyi is afraid that he will once again join hands with Jin Softjing. Han Songyi is the main attack of the South Korean women's volleyball team in the London Olympic cycle, and also the best partner of Jin Softjing. The reason why the Korean women's volleyball team can get the fourth place in London has a lot to do with the outbreak of Han Songyi. Later, because of his old age, he switched to playing secondary attacks.
This year's Korean League, Han Songyi was the second spring, ranking second among all the sub-attackers, only behind the 40-year-old veteran Zheng Daying, so he was selected for the national team as a secondary attacker and shortlisted for the 18-man list of the World League. If the platoon of the Korean team in the past is arranged, Kim so-ji and Liang Xiaozhen will be the starters, but now they may send Han Songyi to play. In terms of reception, the Korean women's volleyball team should start with Park Zhenya.
Park Jung-ah is the main offensive partner of the Rio Olympic Games in Kim Soft King. In the knockout match with the Dutch women's volleyball team, she played 23 mistakes and was praised by Korean fans as the "first soft goods". But now the South Korean women's volleyball team has no one to use, and can only use this experienced veteran of the competition. The main offensive side should be Kim Soft-kyung and Lee So-young, the second pass position may start An Hye-jin, and the free man is Wu Jiyong.
