Then the Sichuan team played a wave of 7-0 offensive climax, surpassing the score, the two sides came and went very lively, and at the end of the first quarter, Beijing Control fell behind 24-28.

The Sichuan team had problems at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends in the second half, Haddadi was suppressed by Haas, and Zou Yuchen's physical strength was enough to compete with the Iranians when Haas was not there, Haddadi played very unhappily, felt unwell, and asked to leave the field for a break.
