Leo is clearly angry. He avoided shaking hands with his opponent, who had a war of nerves even after winning the match.
At a match between Woori Card and Hyundai Capital held at Jangchung Gymnasium in Seoul on Monday, Hyundai Capital Leo and Woori Card Ali engaged in a “red card” war of nerves at the height of a fierce competition.
The situation took place at the beginning of the fourth set, when Hyundai Capital led 2-1 with a set score.
At the score 1-2, after Hyundai Capital’s Choi Min-ho made a quick attack, Ali suddenly rushed into the net with excitement. Then Woori Card manager Mauricio Paes went into the court and blocked Ali with his body.
There was a commotion for a while, and the referee took out the red card and held it toward Leo. He then gave Ali a red card. If you receive a red card, you will be given one penalty point. Both teams lost one point each, and the game resumed with a score of 3-3.
Why did the two players have a sudden war of nerves?
The situation was revealed through an interview after the game. “I don’t know if it was intended, but I felt like Ali was provoking the opposing team. I felt it was bad to provoke (us) when the team was in a bad mood, so I did it to change the team atmosphere,” Leo said in an interview with Su-hoon.
The situation happened in the fourth set, but the cause was in the third set. Woori Card, who gave up two sets first, brought the third set to 25-19 with Ali’s strong performance. Ali raised the team’s mood with a hot ceremony every time he scored. 토토사이트
In particular, after Ali scored, Hyundai Capital requested a video review of four touches, and when it turned out to be not four touches, Ali burst into laughter. It was an act that could have been stimulated by the opponent team.
Leo’s provocation toward Ali, which had gained momentum, was successful as a result. After the war of nerves, Hyundai Capital took the lead, winning 25-20, beating Woori Card 3-1 with a set score of seven consecutive wins, and racing to No. 1.
“Leo is a seasoned player with a lot of experience. Ali is young and young. I hope he doesn’t let this happen to Ali,” Woori Card’s Paes said after the game. “I hope he doesn’t act like Leo. Leo is a good player even without making such provocations. Wouldn’t such provocations be unnecessary?” he said, regretting Leo’s behavior.
As the players of both teams shook hands after the match, Leo turned right in front of Ali’s turn and turned away from Ali’s handshake. Ali’s unpleasant look stuck on Leo’s back.
Leo, who turned a blind eye to Ali, immediately went to director Paes. The conversation between the two continued for a long time because of their different positions on the situation of the war of nerves.
