The second stage of the 2021-2022 women's volleyball super league is about to start, and all teams have entered a critical stage of preparation, and the Shanghai women's volleyball team, as one of the favorites to win the league, is also preparing for the promotion to the final four. The team's main attacker, 24-year-old Zhonghui, was busy sneaking around, updating the social platform and posting training photos.
Zhonghui wrote: "You can always believe in yourself." This Passage translates to "You can always trust yourself." Judging from the photos, Zhonghui's mental outlook is still quite good, and she has not been affected by the first stage of upset loss to Jiangsu. This passage may be the encouragement that Zhonghui gave himself in the second stage.
In the first stage of the league, Zhonghui's play was not ideal, whether it was attacking, serving and blocking the net, or a pass defense, it did not make people shine. Offensively, Zhonghui is limited by her height, although her strength is more than that of players such as Yang Jie, but her line changes and method changes are still not rich enough. According to statistics, Zhonghui only scored 71 points in the first stage, ranking only 24th among all players.
Serve and block the net, Zhonghui's play is also unsatisfactory. Previously, Zhonghui's vigorous jump serve made fans shine, and some people even suggested that he could serve as a substitute. However, in this league, Zhonghui's serve has not changed much, although it is a jump, but the change of strength and angle is not enough, so after everyone adapts, there is no threat. Netting is limited by height.
The Shanghai women's volleyball team's one-pass system is different from other teams, and their reception Ouyang Xixi is a player who can receive a pass, so the team sometimes adopts the position of the main attack 3 rounds, the 3 rounds and the free man 6 rounds. This style of play is not very demanding for Zhonghui's first pass, but it is so, Zhonghui's first pass rate is only 65%, ranking fifteenth. In the last round of the first stage group stage, the reason why the Shanghai women's volleyball team lost was because Zhonghui did not play.
In this league, Zhang Yichan of the Shanghai women's volleyball team was transferred to Shenzhen, plus the team's foreign aid is a comprehensive attacker, and the strong offensive ability to receive Ouyang Xixi is not outstanding, so the adjustment of the offensive responsibility is handed over to Zhonghui. Whether Zhonghui can play the ball has become the key to whether the Shanghai women's volleyball team can achieve good results. Although there is still Liu Zhening's heavy cannon in the Shanghai women's volleyball team, Liu Zhening's small ball series is not as good as Zhonghui, so it has been hidden by Wang Zhiteng.
As one of the favorites to win the league championship, the Shanghai women's volleyball team will face the Zhejiang women's volleyball team in the first round of the second stage. Judging from the comparison of the strength of the two teams, the Shanghai women's volleyball team should not be a problem to win the game, but the focus is on whether Zhonghui can break through the high net of the Zhejiang women's volleyball team. What impressed the fans most about the Zhejiang women's volleyball team this league was their ability to block the net, Liu Yu, Zeng Jieya and Zhu Yuezhou all ranked in the top ten of the net blocking list. Therefore, this game is an extreme test of Zhonghui's strong offensive ability.
