KGC Daejeon were fighting for their honor in today’s round of Korean V-League and managed to prevent current vice-champions, hi-pass Zenith Korea Expressway, to play in the playoffs!

Last-placed Daejeon played the match versus Expressway like it was a matter of life and death and prevaild after tie-break 3-2 (25-27, 25-17, 25-21, 23-25, 15-11).

Expressway’s American Leslie Cikra outscored compatriot Hayley Spelman (39-33), but it was a weak compensation for her team who will miss out playoffs (3 top teams will participate).

Third-placed Heungkuk Life Pink Spiders are three wins away from Expressway (settled at fourth place) having to play 4 games until the end of regular stage, one more than Expressway. Besides that, Pink Spiders are more successful in mutual clashes (4-1 so far) and reached better set ratio.
