On January 1, the third game of the semi-final of the Volleyball Super League ended the competition, and finally the Jiangsu women's volleyball team swept the Shanghai women's volleyball team 3-0, eliminating the opponent 2-1 with a big score and advancing to the final, and the final opponent was the Tianjin women's volleyball team. In this way, Tianjin and Jiangsu met in the division final for two consecutive years, and last season Tianjin defeated Jiangsu to win the championship.
Today's Jiangsu and Shanghai matches are a big test for them, after all, the last 2-0 lead was overturned by Shanghai Magic 3-2, so this decisive battle is very critical for both teams. In the game, the Jiangsu women's volleyball team played more proactively, Wu Mengjie played eye-catching, and Jiangsu's defense also did a good job. In contrast, the first pass of the Shanghai women's volleyball team is not in place, and the second pass is also out of standard, although it is aided by foreign aid, but it is still unable to lead the team forward alone. In the end, the stronger Jiangsu swept Shanghai 3-0, winning the victory while eliminating the opponent 2-1 on aggregate and advancing to the final.
The next final is Tianjin vs Jiangsu, the two teams met in the final last season, when Diao Linyu was injured by the pad, resulting in a tilt in the strength gap between the two sides, when Jiangsu also had Zhang Changning, Tianjin and Zhu Ting, and finally Tianjin defeated Jiangsu to win the championship.
And in the field of this year's National Games, the Jiangsu team led by Cai Bin met Tianjin in the final, and it is worth mentioning that the Volleyball Super and the National Games of the Jiangsu Women's Volleyball Team are almost a wave of people, because the volleyball super they are the "All-Soviet Class". In the end, the Tianjin women's volleyball team coached by Wang Baoquan defeated Jiangsu 3-1 and won the gold medal at the National Games. After the volleyball super final, Tianjin once again defeated Jiangsu in the final of the National Games, which can be called the nemesis of the opponent.
This time the two teams met in the final, the Tianjin women's volleyball team has a clear advantage in strength, they introduced Liu Yanhan, Vargas and Yuan Xinyue and other people, although Zhu Ting did not participate due to injury, but the overall strength of the team did not drop but rose. In contrast, the Jiangsu women's volleyball team is more of a young player this season, Zhang Changning does not participate in surgery, Gong Xiangyu serves as the captain, and their lineup is younger. Of course, although the strength of the Jiangsu women's volleyball team is not dominant, it is full of youth and vitality, and it is very likely to impact the opponent in the final.
At the team level, Tianjin women's volleyball team is the defending champion, they will impact the 3 consecutive championships and 14 championships in team history in this final, as the team with the deepest foundation in the volleyball super, the goal of the Tianjin women's volleyball team is obvious, that is, to win the championship. The History of the Jiangsu Women's Volleyball Team has only won the championship in 2017 under the leadership of Zhang Changning, and they have reached the final 6 times and returned home five times. This time to enter the final again, captain Gong Xiangyu will definitely hope to avenge Tianjin and impact the second championship in team history.
I also look forward to the next showdown between Tianjin and Jiangsu, Tianjin is a more optimistic side, but Jiangsu also has an absolute opportunity, so I also hope that the two teams can have good luck in the final, play their own strength and spirit, and strive to achieve good results.
