The 2021-22 Premier League season is at the end, with only the final three or four finals and the champions and runners-up finals remaining.
In the semifinals, the Tianjin women's volleyball team defeated the Liaoning women's volleyball team, and the Jiangsu women's volleyball team defeated the Shanghai women's volleyball team. Liaoning and Shanghai teams played in the three- and four-place battle, and Jiangsu and Tianjin teams played in the final.
After the 2017-18 season of the Chinese Women's Volleyball League was changed to the Chinese Women's Volleyball Super League, it has played four seasons. The Tianjin women's volleyball team reached the final four times, winning 3 championships and 1 runner-up. Counting this season, the Tianjin women's volleyball team has reached the final for five consecutive seasons. The Jiangsu women's volleyball team also reached the final last season, and they met the final with the Tianjin women's volleyball team for two consecutive seasons.
Jiangsu women's volleyball team and Tianjin women's volleyball team have always been the two major teams in the super, and the two teams are also two teams in China that are very close in strength and are fierce rivals with each other. The match between the two teams has always been a major attraction of the top women's volleyball competition in China, known as the Battle of Tennoyama. Last season, due to the accidental injury of Diao Linyu, the Jiangsu women's volleyball team lost to Tianjin in a good situation, missing the team's first volleyball championship, which made the team up and down. The Jiangsu women's volleyball team naturally wants to win the Tianjin women's volleyball team.
So which team has a greater winning percentage in this final?
This season, the Tianjin women's volleyball team retained Li Yingying, Wang Yuanyuan, Yao Di and other player backbones. The technology of the three of them has gradually matured and stabilized, their abilities are getting stronger and stronger, and they have gained a foothold in the national team. In addition, they introduced two high-level national players, Yuan Xinyue and Liu Yanhan, and also introduced foreign aid to violently receive Vargas. The Tianjin women's volleyball team has strong players in all positions, and it is completely possible to form a national team and achieve good results in the world.
The Jiangsu women's volleyball team has changed a lot. In addition to Gong Xiangyu, one of the "Seven Fairies" of the national team, as well as the fringe players of the national team, Diao Linyu and Ni Feifan, there are no players with great strength and fame. After Zhang Changning recovered from his injury and some veteran players retired, there were few strong veterans left in the Jiangsu team.
Fortunately, the Jiangsu team has a strong reserve force, and Cai Bin has transferred several players from the youth team, such as Wu Mengjie, Yang Jia, Wan Ziyue and other young players who have been reused. They also did not fail in their mission and performed well in the Volleyball Super League.
Of course, it is not realistic for these young players who are only fifteen or sixteen years old to reach the level of adult players at once. Therefore, many people are still optimistic about the Tianjin women's volleyball team defeating the Jiangsu women's volleyball team to win the championship.
Compared with the overall strength of the players, it is indeed difficult for Jiangsu to defeat Tianjin. In the second stage, the two teams played a game, when Tianjin won 3-0 against Jiangsu, and the score was relatively large, the scores in three sets were 25:12, 25:19, 25:18. The young players of the Jiangsu team simply could not withstand the wild bombardment of the Tianjin team. Tianjin's Vargas, Li Yingying and Yuan Xinyue all scored in double figures. The attacking Tianjin team scored 50 points, and the Jiangsu team only scored 32 points. The Tianjin team scored 8 points and the Jiangsu team scored 1 point. In terms of active attack, Tianjin far surpassed Jiangsu.
However, the Jiangsu team did not have any chances at all. The combination of the new and old of the Jiangsu team naturally has a run-in process. The young players played in the Championships and the Volleyball Super League, and all accumulated a wealth of experience in the game. Especially through the baptism of the volleyball Super League, the ability has been greatly enhanced, and the cooperation with the old players has become more and more tacit. Young players like Wu Mengjie, Yang Jia, Wan Ziyue and other young players have good scoring ability.
Although the Tianjin team is very strong, it is not invulnerable. The Shanghai women's volleyball team played a game with the Tianjin team, although the Shanghai team lost the game, but it created trouble for the Tianjin team. In that game, Wang Zhiteng rotated a lot of players, did not send foreign aid, put on a lot of young players, but played well, so that the Tianjin team felt a lot of pressure. In particular, the young player Wang Yindi played well, she slammed the ball at Vargas many times, making Vargas busy coping, the power was greatly reduced, and it was very embarrassing.
Therefore, the Jiangsu team can learn from the Shanghai team's playing style and find a way to chase Vargas, so that Vargas is busy with defense, and the natural offensive ability is greatly reduced. If Jiangsu wants to win the Tianjin team, it must do three things well, the first point is to find a way to restrain Vargas.
The second point is to improve the team's offensive success rate. The last time Jiangsu lost to Tianjin, the attack success rate was too low. Like Wu Han' offensive success rate is only 20%, other team members are not high success rate. Tianjin's offensive success rate is much higher, with Vargas's success rate reaching 75% and Li Yingying's success rate reaching 55%. If the success rate is not high, it will waste a lot of opportunities and affect the morale of the team.
Third, Jiangsu players should be patient. The game with Tianjin must be very difficult, and Jiangsu team must have the mentality of playing a protracted battle. In particular, we must play well with the ball and not give up halfway.
Fourth, we must have firm confidence and not because the team is behind. The biggest drawback of the Jiangsu team is here, the ability to resist pressure is poor, and it is not good at playing headwind ball. To be able to change this drawback, the probability of defeating the Tianjin team will increase greatly.
The overall strength of the Jiangsu players is weaker than that of the Tianjin team. If the willpower is not firm enough, and you can't resist the pressure when you are behind, it will naturally be difficult to win the Tianjin team.
Let's see how Cai Bin adjusts the team members and does a good job in the ideological work of the team members. Overall, the probability of Tianjin team defending the title is as high as more than 70%, and the Jiangsu team wins the championship is about 30%.
As for the outcome, we will not know until the end of the game. We just want the two teams to play a good game and we just sit on the little bench and enjoy it.
