Mateus Krouchuk (27, registered name Mateus) and Doosan Nicolich (23, registered name Nicolich), who were recruited by Korea Electric Power Corporation and Woori Card as substitutes for injured foreign players, are raising their team's hopes for spring volleyball.
Matheus and Nikolic were recruited on behalf of foreign giants Luis Elian Estrada (24, registered name Elian) and Mihil Ahi (26, registered name Ahi), who were out of the team due to injuries.
Both KEPCO and Woori Card had difficulties in recruiting Mateus and Nikolic due to the lack of talent pool.
They were worried about their skills because they were not selected during the foreign tryout, but after opening the lid, it was enough to dispel the concern.
Mateus made his return to the V-League for the first time in three years and nine months since the match against Hyundai Capital on March 31, 2021, when he was a member of Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance in a home game against OK Savings Bank on the 13th.
Matheus, who had not had much time to work together less than a week after entering the country, scored 42 points alone.
Although it was regrettable that his team KEPCO lost 1-3 to OK Savings Bank, 42 points is the most in a men's game this season.
In the men's category, Ahi and Elian scored 37 points each this season, while Mateus was the first in the 40s, and in the women's category, GS Caltex's Giselle Silva (registered name Silva) and Hyundai Engineering & Construction's Letizia Moma Basoko (registered name Moma) scored 43 points side by side.
Matheus scored 42 points and had a 55.41 percent attack success rate.
Although KEPCO is trailing to fifth place with seven wins and seven losses (16 points) in the season, with Matheus joining the team, it is expected to speed up the pursuit of fourth-place Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance (5-9, 20 points) and third-place Woori Card (8-6, 21 points).
Nikolic's performance, which Woori Card brought as a substitute for Ahi, is also impressive.
Nikolic led the team to a thrilling 3-2 come-from-behind victory by scoring 25 points against Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance on the 7th, when he made his V-League debut, and led the team to a 3-2 come-from-behind victory with 22 points against copyright on the 12th.
Woori Card was able to climb one place to third place with two consecutive whistles after joining Nikolic.
Attention is focusing on whether Matheus and Nicolich, who join as substitutes and are active, will be able to give their team a ticket to spring volleyball. 메이저놀이터
