On January 1, Beijing time, the semi-finals of the 2021-2022 Chinese Women's Volleyball Super League ended, and Jiangsu easily defeated Shanghai in three straight sets to eliminate the opponent with an aggregate score of 2-1 to advance to the final. After the game, the South Korean media bluntly said that "this is an unacceptable defeat" and believed that the responsibility should be the team's head coach Wang Zhiteng.
South Korean media said that in the face of almost the situation of being suppressed by opponents, Wang Zhiteng almost made no adjustments, and the previously outstanding ace Jin Softjing did not get a minute of playing time. South Korean media pointed out that Wang Zhiteng and his coaching team seem to be fantasizing about a repeat of the situation of falling behind 0-2 and then pulling three consecutive sets of reversals in the last game, so that they are still indifferent in such a passive situation. In addition, a South Korean commentator wrote that in the case of Larson's obvious trapped physical strength, the coach of the Shanghai women's volleyball team did not choose to replace it, which is puzzling. For the use of Jin Softjing, the Korean media is also quite dissatisfied, they believe that the main second pass is too bad to be used, and it is undoubtedly taboo not to change the second pass to remove the trump card.
This season, because Jin Softjing joined the Shanghai women's volleyball team, the attention and reports of the Korean media for the Chinese Volleyball Super League have doubled. Objectively speaking, the accusations of the South Korean media are suspected of being biased towards their own people, but the on-the-spot command of Shanghai women's volleyball team coach Wang Zhiteng in this game does have more debatable places. The first is the use of Larson, who has a very good performance in the first two games against the Jiangsu women's volleyball team, but because of the age of three consecutive high-intensity games in three days plus the previous game to play until the decider to divide the winner, the physical condition really affected her play. In this case, Wang Zhiteng did not choose to try to let Jin Softjing play, and there were indeed some problems. In this game, the three side attacks of the Shanghai women's volleyball team failed to play more than 30% of the offensive success rate, on the one hand, the Targeted Blocking of the Jiangsu Team, on the other hand, it was also related to the pass of the main second pass Xu Xiaoting, but the coaching team led by Wang Zhiteng still chose to trust her, but did not give her too clear guidance, which is also one of the reasons why the team suffered a complete defeat.
