The two sides drew 14-14, Tianjin counter-attacked and scored, 17-14 to open the score again, 19-15, Jiangsu asked for a timeout. In the end, Tianjin won the game 25-17, thus winning 3:0 to win the first leg of the final.
Jiangsu team did play poorly in the first innings, entered the state slowly, faced a strong opponent, a little beyond their own preparations; plus this Jiangsu team is generally relatively young, or the previous substitute players, facing the more powerful opponents in the final, delaying the opening of the situation, often stuck, the first innings even once lost 7 points; and the Tianjin team completely opened, fully blossomed, the main attack, the secondary attack, the reception can score.
After the second inning, the Jiangsu team gradually found a little rhythm of its own, and the two sides attacked and defended more balls in multiple rounds. It cannot be said that the Jiangsu team played very poorly, but the overall strength of the Tianjin team was stronger, and it was less likely to make mistakes, and did not give the opponent the opportunity to turn the tables.
In the case of Tianjin team 2:0 lead, the first half of the third set was a bit "napping", but soon regained control of the rhythm of the game, directly leading to the collapse of the Jiangsu team mentality, Tianjin team not only attacked more points, the back row defense was also in place, Jiangsu team attacked many times not to score, but was counterattacked by Tianjin team to score; after 13-14, Tianjin team played an opponent 12-3.
The strength gap is a bit large. Jiangsu team's serve + attack on Vargas, Yuan Xinyue's net + fast attack, there is nothing to do.
Unless the Jiangsu team is crazy, it is difficult to create a miracle.
Do you think that tomorrow night in the second leg of the two sides, can jiangsu team create a miracle?
