Jakarta, CNN Indonesia —
Megawati Hangestri Pertiwi together Red Sparks managed to set a record after ensuring they qualified for the 2023/2024 Korean Volleyball League playoffs. Here are three records that the Red Sparks can set.
The historical mark made by Megawati Cs was obtained from another match, specifically the Pink Spiders match against IBK Altos in the sixth round of duel at the Hwaseon Indoor Arena, Tuesday (5/3) afternoon.
Pink Spiders managed to beat IBK Altos 3-1 (25-20, 29-31, 25-19, 25-17). IBK’s failure to win full points means they cannot match Red Sparks’ points, which currently have 58 points.
This situation also allows Red Sparks to breathe more easily. On the one hand, they also recorded an impressive record that had not been achieved in a professional competition in the country of Ginseng for a long time.
With this certainty, Red Sparks can focus on competing towards winning the championship. Here are three records that the Red Sparks can set after being confirmed to qualify for the Korean Volleyball League playoffs.
1. First Playoffs in Seven Years
The certainty that the Red Sparks will qualify for the playoffs is a special note. Because for the first time in seven years, they managed to penetrate the championship round.
Based on Naver’s records, the last time Red Sparks qualified for the playoffs was in the 2016/2017 season. At that time, Red Sparks collapsed in the semifinals after losing 1-3 to IBK Altos.
But now it’s IBK Altos’ turn to fail to catch Red Sparks. This record is an impressive achievement for Megawati and her colleagues.
2. Record of 20 wins from the last 12 years
Red Sparks is one of the champion candidates thanks to a higher number of wins compared to previous seasons.
Currently, the Red Sparks have recorded 19 wins in the 2023/2024 Korean Volleyball League. If you win against GS Caltex on Thursday (7/3), then the number of wins will be an even 20 times.
The last time the Red Sparks recorded 20 wins was in the 2011/2012 season or 12 years ago. At that moment, the Red Sparks last won the Korean Volleyball League.
3. Seven consecutive wins in the last 15 years
Another record that the Red Sparks can set is a series of wins that is much better than previous seasons.
Currently, the Red Sparks have recorded six consecutive wins in the Korean Volleyball League. If they are able to win against GS Caltex, Red Sparks will automatically record seven wins in a row.
Based on Naver’s records, this achievement will be the first time since they last recorded seven consecutive wins in the last 15 years.
