The "New Seven Fairies" lineup is about to emerge. The Chinese women's volleyball team won all the games in Hong Kong and defeated the Polish women's volleyball team.
On the evening of June 16, at the World Women's Volleyball League Hong Kong Station, the Chinese women's volleyball team defeated the Polish women's volleyball team 3-0, achieving four consecutive victories and ending the World Women's Volleyball League with a record of 9 wins and 3 losses. So far, all the teams that have advanced to the World Women's Volleyball League finals have been determined, namely the host Thailand team and China, Brazil, Poland, Japan, Italy, Turkey, and the United States.
After defeating the world's No. 1 Turkish women's volleyball team the day before, the Chinese women's volleyball team achieved two goals: to get a ticket to the Paris Olympics and to advance to the finals. In the match against the Polish women's volleyball team, the Chinese women's volleyball team continued its good competitive state, especially in the first pass guarantee, and its performance was perfect. There was also significant improvement in blocking, which greatly restricted the opponent's offense. In the multiple rounds of offense and defense conversion, the Chinese women's volleyball team maintained extremely strong patience and high concentration, and finally made the final decision and played with momentum. Many fans commented while watching the game, "The Chinese women's volleyball team is back!"
In this match, the starting lineup of the Chinese women's volleyball team is the same as the match against the Turkish women's volleyball team. The main attackers are Li Yingying and Wu Mengjie, the secondary attackers are Yuan Xinyue and Wang Yuanyuan, the opposite is Gong Xiangyu, the second setter is Diao Linyu, and the libero is Wang Mengjie. All signs show that the "new seven fairies" lineup has been initially formed. The two veterans Zhu Ting and Zhang Changning play more of a role of escort.
At the beginning of the game, the Chinese team fell behind, but the girls did not show any emotion. Instead, they fought hard to serve and attack the opponent's first pass. Throughout the game, the Chinese team played well on the offensive end, the second pass was fully mobilized, and the main attack and secondary attack blossomed in multiple places. Facing the hot Chinese team, the Polish team, which had previously won nine consecutive victories, was exhausted and the first pass system was completely collapsed. In this game, four Chinese women's volleyball players scored in double digits. Yuan Xinyue scored a game-high 16 points, Li Yingying scored 14 points, Wu Mengjie scored 11 points, and Wang Yuanyuan scored 10 points.
The Polish women's volleyball team is not a weak team, but the Chinese women's volleyball team is too good. The Italian head coach of the Polish women's volleyball team, Lavarini, has a very high level of coaching. He previously led the South Korean women's volleyball team to the semi-finals of the Tokyo Olympics. Under his coaching, the Polish women's volleyball team has made great progress in small ball and defense, and with excellent offensive and blocking techniques, it has brought this world's second-rate team to the world's first-class.
The Chinese women's volleyball team's victory over the Polish women's volleyball team has boosted the team's confidence. Being able to stand up again in adversity is a valuable asset for the Chinese women's volleyball team. As the comments said, Zhu Ting's strong performance after her return has greatly improved the hard power of the Chinese women's volleyball team, and Zhang Changning's recovery has also brought new good news. Whether it is veterans such as Zhu Ting and Zhang Changning, or Mesozoic and new generation players such as Li Yingying, Diao Linyu, and Wu Mengjie, every piece of the puzzle of this Chinese women's volleyball team is a valuable asset in the journey to the Paris Olympics.
In last year's World Women's Volleyball League, the Chinese women's volleyball team defeated the Polish women's volleyball team in the semifinals, but lost to the Turkish women's volleyball team in the final. This year, the Chinese women's volleyball team is expected to continue to challenge for the championship. There is still more than a month to go before the Paris Olympics, and every game to come will be an important practical match for the team to run in.
After the game, China women's volleyball coach Cai Bin concluded, "In the four games in Hong Kong, everyone played well in terms of skills, tactics and mental outlook. Through the games one by one, the players' condition has finally been mobilized."
Cai Bin said that in the next games he would continue to find problems for the team so as to improve the overall level of the team, "because the real showdown will be in Paris."
