Daegu Korea Gas Corporation failed to keep its lead in the first half and failed to break the long losing streak again. In particular, they faced a bad result of losing all five of their showdowns with the Goyang Sono Sky Gunners this season. Kang Hyuk (50) head coach of Daegu Korea Gas Corporation bowed to fans.
Daegu Korea Gas Corporation lost 62-80 to Goyang Sono in the 5th round away match at Goyang Sono Arena in Goyang, Gyeonggi-do, on the 1st. He finished both the first and second quarters ahead, but he knelt helplessly from the second half. Shin Seung-min was the team's top scorer with 15 points, but lost his luster due to the team's defeat.
With this loss, the lowest-ranked Gas Corporation has been mired in a quagmire of six consecutive losses and five consecutive losses against Sono this season. The gap with the ninth-ranked Seoul Samsung Thunder also widened to 1.5 games.
Coach Kang Hyuk's expression, which entered the press conference immediately after the game, was full of deep regret and sorry for the fans. "In the first half, we defended well as we promised and played an equal game without the opponent's shot going in," he said.
But the problem was the third quarter. Coach Kang said, "At the beginning of the third quarter, the defense that I promised suddenly collapsed. "I became impatient as I allowed the opponent to score in a row, and in the process, the success rate of shots fell and completely gave up the flow," he recalled the game. He said, "As a director, I should have cut off the flow in the middle, but I couldn't. "I should have caught another pattern or something like this, but I'm sorry for the players," he said, giving himself the arrow of defeat.
News of the injury of "forward resource" Shin Joo-young, as well as Jung Sung-woo, the team's main guard, was also reported. The gap began to widen from the time these two players failed to play. Coach Kang Hyuk said, "Both players have to be diagnosed at the hospital right away," adding, "Yang Woo-hyuk's fingers are not good, and Boatwright's knee is also not good." All team members are going through a difficult situation," he said. On January 30, he pointed out that the aftermath of the second overtime match against Wonju DB was large.
Finally, coach Kang bowed his head and even delivered a message of apology to his fans. "I'm truly sorry for the fans for the long losing streak," he said. "I'll take responsibility and prepare well for the rest of the year and quickly break the losing streak."
"I will never give up until the end of the season." "To get a better result next season, I will not be as lethargic as I am today in the rest of the game," he added.
