Coach Woori Card Paes reacted cautiously to the future of foreign captain Ahi, who left due to an ankle injury.
Woori Card will play the second round against OK Savings Bank at Jangchung Gymnasium on the 20th. A major bad news occurred ahead of the game. Ahiga, who injured his ankle in a training session ahead of the previous Korean Air match, was diagnosed with a muscle rupture for 6-8 weeks. Amid the high-ranking battle, the question of whether to find a replacement player or wait for Ahi's recovery is bound to deepen. It is best for a substitute to come quickly, but Korea Electric Power Corporation, which injured Elian, is also in a headache because there are no suitable alternative resources in the current market.
Coach Paes said, `Today's game is important right now,' but he is thinking about Ahi. The variable is that he is doing very well in rehabilitation. The recovery is very fast. I can walk without crutches. Ahi is our colleague. I care about Ahi first, but I think I need more time to make the best decision for the team" he said.
For OK Savings Bank, which is at the bottom of 1 win and 6 losses, it could be an opportunity to play Woori Card on the day. Woori Card is a strong team, but it is because its power will inevitably drop sharply because foreigners are out.
However, Ogino never let his guard down. Coach Ogino said, `Our card has many players with good personal skills. I think the toss will be more decentralized because Ahi is not there. "It's a team with a lot of good players. Rather than missing a foreign player, I told our players to play volleyball", he explained.
