Now Hyundai Capital's top regular league is one step away. Second place Korean Air lost 0-3 to third place KB Insurance on the 14th. Although a fierce neck-and-neck race between the second and third places was expected, KB Insurance, armed with tremendous serve, won an unexpected victory. However, due to this game, Hyundai Capital's top regular league is one step closer.
Hyundai Capital, ranked first, had 25 wins and 3 losses and 73 points, while Korean Air had 17 wins and 11 losses and 52 points. The difference between the two teams is a whopping 21 points. Hyundai Capital's No. 1 magic number decreased from 7 points to 4 points.
However, there is a situation in which Hyundai Capital can confirm the first place in the next game. The next game is a home game against second-ranked Korean Air in Cheonan on the 18th. If Hyundai Capital wins the game on this day, the No. 1 spot will be confirmed.
If they win by 3-0 or 3-1, Hyundai Capital will have 76 points with 26 wins and 3 losses, and Korean Air will have 17 wins and 12 losses and maintain 52 points.
Even if Hyundai Capital loses all seven remaining games and Korean Air wins all seven games by 3-0 or 3-1 to get 21 points, Hyundai Capital will be the top with only 73 points. KB Insurance, ranked third, won all eight games and scored only 74 points even if it added 24 points.
Even if Hyundai Capital wins 3-2 and wins two points, the first place will be confirmed. It will be 75 points, because even if Korean Air wins all seven games and scores 21 more points, it will be 74 points.
This season, Hyundai Capital won all of them over Korean Air until the fourth round. After winning 3-2 on October 27, the first match, they won 3-1 or 3-0.
In the fourth round match on January 29, Korean Air played as a whole, including Yosvani and Jung Ji-seok Han player Ryohei, but Hyundai Capital won 3-1.
If Hyundai Capital confirms the No. 1 spot in the Korean Air Exhibition on the 18th, it will set the record for the fastest No. 1 spot in history.
The fastest case in V-League history was in the 2012-2013 season, when Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance ranked first with five games left in the 30-game season. Under the current 36-game system, Hyundai Capital has confirmed the top spot with four games left in the 2017-2018 season.
Hyundai Capital's first-ever fifth-round No. 1 ranking is just around the corner. Even if Korean Air wins, Hyundai Capital can challenge history once more in the last game of the fifth round against Woori Card on the 22nd.
