In the 2024 World Women's Volleyball League, in a wonderful competition on May 18, the Chinese women's volleyball team lost to Canada 1-3. The comprehensive performance of the Chinese women's volleyball team is not good, and from the analysis of all aspects of the data, the root cause of the Chinese women's volleyball team's loss in this game lies in a pass, and the Chinese team actually has a very good opportunity, and the next two games have been reversed, and the bigger part of this pot may come from the coaching staff.
Regarding the process of this game, the Chinese women's volleyball team started slowly and lost points continuously, and overtook the score in a passive situation, but there was a small card in the key round, and the first game was lost by a narrow margin. In the second game, the Chinese team established an advantage early, and the big score lead was chased by the opponent continuously, but fortunately, Li Yingying was tough enough at the critical moment. In the third game, the Chinese team's 12-6 lead was reversed by the opponent, and the adjustment effect of the coaching staff was not good. In the fourth game, the Chinese team also led 17-12, but the adaptability was not enough, and it was reversed by the opponent.
Smash score: China 61-58 Canada
Block score: China 6-8 Canada
Serve scored: China 6-13 Canada
Opponent self-defeat: China 19-16 Canada
Total score: China 92-95 Canada
In this game, the Chinese team led the opponent 61-58 in attack, but the net was 6-8 inferior to the opponent, especially the service 6-13 and the opponent was far behind. Judging from the comprehensive data, the key to losing is to be hit hard by the opponent's serve, and the performance of the first pass is unstable. It is precisely because of the serious problem of the first pass that the key ball conceded card wheel was continuous, so that the good games of the third and fourth games were reversed.
In addition to their own one-pass problems, the level of adjustment of the coaching staff is debatable, and the rhythm of substitutions is always not very good. The skills and tactics of the Chinese women's volleyball team have always been relatively simple, although there are some new things compared with last year, but the overall routine has not changed much, and it is always adjusted and resolved by the opponent in time. In addition, the Canadian team's serve is very strong, and the Chinese team has never given a chance to Wang Yunrui, who has a stable pass, in the situation of unstable passing.
Chinese player scoring stats
Li Yingying: 24 points, 49 deductions, 21 shots, 3 turnovers, 8 blocks and 4 turnovers, 20 3 points and 2 turnovers
Gong Xiangyu: 15 points, 29 deductions, 13 shots, 4 turnovers, 5 blocks, 1 point and 1 turnover, 17 shots, 1 point and 1 turnover
Wu Mengjie: 12 points, 28 deductions, 11 shots, 3 turnovers, 5 blocks, 1 point and 1 turnover, 7 shots and 1 turnover
Wang Yuanyuan: 9 points, 18 deductions, 6 shots, 1 turnover, 6 blocks, 1 point, 19 shots and 2 points
Yuan Xinyue: 7 points, 15 deductions, 5 shots, 3 turnovers, 19 blocks, 2 points, 5 turnovers, 10 shots and 0 points
Zhang Changning: 2 points, 4 deductions, 2 hits, 1 turnover, 4 shots and 1 turnover
Diao Linyu: 2 points, 3 deductions, 1 hit, 4 blocks and 1 point, 15 shots and 1 turnover
Zheng Yixin: 2 points, 3 deductions and 2 hits
In this game, Li Yingying scored a team-high 24 points, her personal condition was very good, and she always stood up and scored at critical moments. Gong Xiangyu's performance was also very good, and he also stood up in a passive situation. Although they all made a number of mistakes, they performed well overall, and the error rate was within the normal range. It's a pity that it still failed to lead the whole team to win, and the result of the game is very regrettable. Wu Mengjie obviously lacks experience in the competition, and the headwind situation looks lacking, but there is still some room for improvement.
The performance of the two secondary attackers in this game was relatively soft, the blocking end failed to limit the opponent, and the offensive efficiency was obviously insufficient. And this kind of ball is caught by the opponent and loses points, which has a great impact on the team's morale. Zhang Changning's comprehensive state is not very good, and he played a certain role in the fourth game, but the continuity is obviously insufficient.
The Chinese team's pass in this game was not good as a whole, Li Yingying received 22 times 10 in place and 4 mistakes, Wang Mengjie received 21 times, 7 times in place and 2 mistakes, Wu Mengjie received 16 times and only 3 times in place and 4 mistakes, Gong Xiangyu received 13 times and only 2 times in place and 1 mistake, Zhang Changning received 11 times 1 time in place and 1 mistake. It can be seen that the Chinese women's volleyball team has a low pass completion rate and a high error rate in this game. The Chinese women's volleyball team is more stable than Wang Yunrui, but she acted as a spectator throughout the game and never got the opportunity to play.
The comprehensive performance in defense is passable, Wang Mengjie saved 22 times with 38 saves, Li Yingying saved 12 times with 14 saves, Gong Xiangyu saved 11 times with 15 saves, Diao Linyu saved 1 time with 14 saves, and Wu Mengjie saved 4 times from 15 times. In short, the Chinese women's volleyball team has played hard enough, but the problem is still in terms of technology and tactics, as well as the lack of on-the-spot adjustment by the coaching staff.
Regarding the setter, Diao Linyu attempted 102 passes, including 19 direct assists and one turnover. Ding Xia came off the bench, tried to pass the ball 11 times, and scored 4 points with direct assists. Due to the instability of the first pass in this game, Diao Linyu's setter adjustment line was not good, and there were many passes that were too close to the net and it was very dangerous. In short, the root comes from a pass, and the coaching staff's substitution adjustments are debatable.
