JAKARTA - The PLN Electric Jakarta women's volleyball team is determined to get full points in the second round of the 2022 Proliga. For that, the first step that must be taken is to win the match against Bandung bjb Tandamata this afternoon.

For Elektrik, the match which took place at the Padepokan Volleyball General of Police Kunarto, Sentul, Bogor, West Java, Friday starting at 14:00 is the first in the second round after last week's team under coach Risco Herlambang who was supposed to compete against Gresik Petrokimia Pupuk Indonesia, had to be postponed and had to be rescheduled because more than 50 percent of PLN's electric players were positive for COVID-19.

"There are no other words, we have to take points because in the first round we lost. Now is our moment to be able to take full points," Risco said as quoted by Antara, Friday, adding that his players are now in good condition and ready to fight.

In the second round, Risco also said foreign player Odina Zayniddinovna had integrated into the team. In addition, Electric PLN also brought in a new foreign player, namely Natalia Martinez from the Dominican Republic.

The presence of players in the position of outside hitters is expected to increase the power of the electric hit in the second round. The ambition of Odina and his friends to win in the second round is indeed big.

Understandably, currently PLN Electric still occupies the bottom of the standings with three points, the result of one win and three defeats.

Elektrik must win three games to be able to secure a ticket to the final four. "At least we need three wins from four matches. Including against bjb Tandamata," said Risco.

Electricity PLN must maximize today's match. On the other hand, bjb Tandamata lost one mainstay player and captain of the Wilda Siti Nurfadilah team who was exposed to COVID-19. In addition, the possibility of not being strengthened by foreign players Nikoleta Perovic because of a similar case.

Apart from bjb Tandamata and Gresik Petrokimia, in the second round of Electricity, there are still matches against Jakarta Pertamina Fastron on Sunday (20/2) and Jakarta Mandiri Popsivo Polwan on March 5.
