시끄러운 빅 4, 여성부 박스오피스가 어깨에 걸려 있습니다

프로 배구 V리그가 다시 한 번 코트를 뜨겁게 달구고 있습니다. 김연경, 강소휘, 박정아, 이소영 등 스타급 선수들이 총동원되어 있습니다. 특히 리그를 대표하는 이들 고소득자에게는 팀을 승리로 이끌고 리그를 대중화시켜야 하는 중요한 임무가 주어집니다.

올 시즌 여자부 최고 연봉자는 김연경과 강소휘입니다. 두 선수 모두 올 시즌 최고 연봉인 총 8억 원(연봉 5억 원, 옵션 3억 원)에 계약했습니다. 은퇴를 고민하던 김연경은 우승을 목표로 다시 한 번 현역 선수 생활 연장을 선택했습니다. 지난 두 시즌 모두 챔피언십 결승에 진출했지만 마지막 장애물을 통과하지는 못했습니다. 36세의 나이지만 코트 안팎에서 여전히 중심 선수로 활약하고 있습니다. 여전히 외국인 선수들과 비교해도 손색이 없는 불타는 파워와 공격력을 보유하고 있습니다. 개인 파산 지난 시즌 36경기에서 득점 6위(755점), 공격 성공률 2위(44.98%)를 기록하며 강점을 보여줬습니다. 최근 두 번째 시즌 정규리그 MVP로 선정되기도 했습니다. 하지만 누구도 피할 수 없는 노화 곡선이 변수입니다.

2015~2016시즌 데뷔 후 GS칼텍스에서만 뛰었던 강소희는 올 시즌을 앞두고 3년간 총 24억 원에 한국도로공사와 자유계약선수 계약을 체결하고 처음으로 팀을 이적했습니다. 도로공사는 2022~2023시즌 우승에 올랐지만 지난 시즌 박정아가 페퍼저축은행으로 이적하면서 6위로 밀려나 공백을 메우지 못했습니다. 이것이 강소희를 영입한 이유입니다. 지난 시즌에는 35경기에서 득점 12위(444점), 공격 성공률 10위(39.30%)를 기록하며 GS의 에이스로 활약했습니다. 아직 27세에 절정에 달하지 못했다는 점도 장점입니다. 강소희는 "감독님이 저를 영입한 이유가 '우승 진출을 위해서'라고 말씀하셨습니다. '

박정아도 7억 7,500만 원(연봉 4억 7,500만 원, 옵션 3억 원)으로 뒤를 잇고 있습니다. 지난 시즌 최하위였던 페퍼저축은행을 구할 영웅으로 기대를 모았지만 기대에 미치지 못했습니다. 36경기에서 468득점(11위)에 그쳤습니다. 공격 성공률은 32.67%에 불과해 2011~2012시즌 데뷔 이후 최저치를 기록했습니다. 비시즌 동안 체력을 제대로 쌓지 못한 것이 큰 요인이었습니다. 올 시즌 장소연의 새로운 지휘 아래 최하위 탈출에 도전하는 페퍼저축은행은 순위를 끌어올리기 위해 결국 박정아가 폭발해야 합니다. 박정아는 "올해는 더 많이 뛰고 웨이트 트레이닝을 더 많이 하면서 더 잘 준비했다"고 반짝이며 말했습니다

지난 시즌 정관장 스프링 배구단을 이끌었던 이소영은 이번 시즌 IBK 유니폼으로 갈아입었습니다. IBK와 3년 21억 원에 계약하고 자유계약선수가 되었습니다. 올 시즌 보수는 7억 원(연봉 4억 5천만 원, 옵션 2억 5천만 원)으로 4위입니다. 부상 재활로 지난 시즌 26경기에 출전하는 데 그쳤지만 공격 성공률 37.95%를 발판으로 강력한 공격력을 선보였습니다. 지난 시즌 5위를 차지한 IBK는 이소영과 함께 미들 블로커 이주아를 영입하며 올 시즌 다크호스로 떠올랐습니다. 관건은 이소영의 몸 상태입니다. 어깨와 발목 인대에 만성적인 문제가 있습니다. 이소영은 "(IBK의) 4번 별(챔피언)을 당연히 입고 싶다"고 말했습니다

'Over 40 Years of Waiting' Aston Villa to enter first UCL since 1983

Aston Villa, the English Premier League EPL, has qualified for the UEFA Champions League UCL, the stage of dreams, for the next season after more than 40 years of waiting. Coach Unai Emery and his players burst into laughter.

Tottenham was completely defeated 0-2 in the 34th round match against EPL Manchester City hereinafter Manchester City in the 2023-24 season at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England on the 15th .

Tottenham, ranked fifth, recorded 19 wins, 6 draws and 12 losses 63 points, and Aston Villa 68 points ranked fourth regardless of the remaining games.

On this day, the Aston Villa team gathered at Villa Park, their home stadium, to watch the result of the match between Tottenham and Manchester City. After Manchester City's victory was confirmed, the team, including manager Herreri, and club officials cheered with celebration. 토토사이트

It is the first time that Aston Villa will play in the UEFA Champions League since the 1982-83 season. Back then, it was during the European Cup, not the current UCL. It is the first time since the name was changed from the European Cup to the Champions League in 1992.

Aston Villa reached the top of the European Cup once in the 1981-82 season.

After more than 40 years of waiting, the Aston Villa squad were thrilled.

"Today is a very special day," Emery said. "It was our dream to play in the UCL. Aston Villa will be able to face the best teams in the world in the Champions League. It is amazing."

"I'm proud of our players and fans, everyone, and I'm really grateful," he said. "I'll make a new dream again just like Aston Villa won in 1982."

Captain John McGinn said, "It's been an amazing season on behalf of all the players." We were once in the Championship part two but we won promotion, and now thankfully we've achieved something that we haven't achieved in 40 years. I'm really pleased."

Brazen Basketball Association Trying to Surpass Suspicion of 3-3 Preferential Selection

Basketball Association Holds Preferential Selection Controversy Evaluation Meeting
Manager Lee Seung-joon's position without any special measures
Lee Seung-joon said, "Select controversial player, feel complacent"

The Korea Basketball Association (Chairman Kwon Hyuk-woon) has been under fire for consistently not knowing about the controversy over the preferential selection of 3-on-3 men's basketball players.

The national team, led by coach Lee Seung-joon (46), was eliminated from the group stage after losing consecutive games to Indonesia and Sri Lanka, which are considered weak, at the 2024 FIBA 3-on-3 Asia Cup in Singapore last month.

Suspicions of preferential treatment arose as Lim Won-joon, who has a special relationship with coach Lee, was selected in the process of selecting players.

Suspicions are rising that Lee might have given preferential treatment to Lim Won-joon, who is serving as a coach at his skill training academy, as a member of the national team. As a result, the coach claims that Kim Jeong-nyeon, who ranks first in the 3-to-3 rankings in Korea, has been excluded.

Lee and his younger siblings, Lee Dong-joon and Lim Won-joon, are the coaches at the academy's website and social networking sites. They are so close that they have played for the same three-to-three team before.

A source at the association said at the time, "The selection strongly reflected the coach's intention. It can be considered as 100 percent. Although some members of the performance improvement committee had negative opinions on the selection of Lim, we decided to give him strength as it was Lee's first competition."

Lim Won-joon showed below-level performance that was not suitable for the national team, and suspicions of preferential treatment spread further.

After the competition ended, the association held a evaluation meeting late on the 19th to review the competition and the selection process of players. Some members did not attend the competition again.

The association organized the competition with a press release representing Lee's position without any clear position or action.

"It is true that the controversial player worked at the same coaching academy," Lee said through the association. "I admit that he failed to show the performance that I expected," adding, "I was complacent because he left the coaching academy while taking charge of the national team, but I should have made a more careful judgment. I will pay close attention to prevent such controversy from happening again."

There was no action or disciplinary action, and the association did not include any position on the suspicion of preferential treatment. If it was a popular sport like baseball and soccer, it is difficult to imagine. 토토사이트

The association concluded with the statement, "In the wake of the Asian Cup's sluggish performance, Shim Chan-gu, chairman of the performance improvement committee, and members agreed on the need for mid- to long-term plans to reinforce the poor three-to-three leagues in Korea and the lack of players. We agreed to revitalize the domestic league and intensively foster promising professional players and ordered the establishment of measures at the association level."

Meanwhile, suspicions were raised that the association appointed Lee without clearly confirming the requirements for Lee's leadership career during the leadership contest.

The 23rd attack point of the season, Messi's partner

Why the U.S. media was surprised by a 136.6m home run

The U.S. media was surprised by Ohtani Shohei's big home run. Coincidentally, he hit a 136.6m large home run at bat on the day when the news broke that Otani himself asked the club to postpone his start once.

Otani appeared as the second designated hitter against the Houston Astros in the "2023 Major League" at Minute Maid Park in Houston, Texas on the 14th and hit a large home run with a distance of 136.6 meters.

Ohtani asked the club to postpone his start once before the match. Coach Phil Nevin said in a pre-match briefing, "Ottani complained of arm fatigue. It's not pain or injury. He explained, "I've only skipped starting once due to fatigue." The club drew a line about the injury, but it was a matter of concern.

Ohtani hit a home run even in this situation. MLB reported, "Ottani hit his 41st home run despite arm fatigue." "Ottani was originally scheduled to start the game against the Texas Rangers on the 16th," MLB said. "He will return to the game against the Cincinnati Reds at Angel Stadium on the 22nd or 23rd," he said. Otani reportedly told the club on the 13th that he would like to filter out the starting rotation once.

The home run came in his third at-bat in the sixth inning. Otani picked out a cutter that came in high on the first pitch against Parker Musinsky. When the second slider came in at a similar height, he did not miss it. Otani's ball flew 448 feet (about 136.6 meters) at a speed of 110.2 miles per hour.

It is his 41st home run in 10-9 games since his 40th home run of the season against Seattle on August 4. In addition to this home run, Ohtani finished the game with one hit (home run) in three at-bats, one walk, one RBI, and one strikeout. The Angels won 2-1, escaping their second straight loss.

"It was a great swing," coach Nevin said of Otani's home run. Arm fatigue has nothing to do with hitting. "It's not an injury, it's just fatigue," he said, drawing a line on injury concerns. 토토사이트

He also told reporters, "As I've told you many times, Otani knows his body better than anyone else. I believed him when I heard the request for a postponement. He said it was neither pain nor injury. "It's just a cumulative symptom of fatigue that pitchers can sometimes experience," he stressed.
