Shock spread throughout the arena! "Mome Thanatcha," a Thai women's volleyball player, was injured and had to be carried off the court in the "High Pass" game, which suffered a major setback!

On 24 Feb 2025, Hyundai Hillstate won a thrilling match against Korea Expressway High Pass 3-2 sets (26-24, 25-17, 23-25, 10-25, 15-10) in the 2025-2026 Korean KOVO V-League Round 6 at Suwon Indoor Gymnasium.

This victory marked Hyundai's fifth consecutive win, bringing their total to 58 points with a 20-11 win-loss record, closing the gap to league leader High Pass, who have 60 points with 21 wins and 10 losses. The race for the regular season championship remains intense.

However, despite the crucial championship battle, High Pass faced bad news early in the 5th set when key attacker "Mome" Thanatcha Suksod suffered a right ankle twist after jumping to block and landing on an opponent's foot. She had to be carried off the court before the team lost the deciding set, narrowing the championship chase gap to just two points.
