The FIVB is announcing the 12 best women's volleyball players last year, and now only the first place has not been announced, but the FIVB's selection has been questioned. Because according to the 11 players who have been announced, the criteria for the FIVB selection is not the individual strength of the athlete, but how many awards she won last year, which is obviously unreasonable. Generally, the best awards are given to players from the top three teams, resulting in other women's volleyball players not being able to make the best team at all.
As we all know, Egnu and Boskovic are the two strongest receivers in the world today, and there is no doubt about their strong offensive ability. But Egnu is only in third place and Boskovic is in fourth, with these two big stars ranked lower. The root cause is still the results of last year's World Women's Volleyball League and the Olympic Games, when Serbia sent a youth team to play in the World League, resulting in poor results, And Boskovic did not participate. Italy is similar to Serbia, so Egnu did not compete.
In the Olympic Games that everyone attaches importance to, the Italian women's volleyball team lost to the Serbian women's volleyball team in the 1/4 final, and Egnu's desire to make a contribution was shattered in advance. Although Serbia successfully reached the semifinals, but encountered the most imposing American women's volleyball team, 0-3 fiasco in advance of the final, Boskovic can not show their strength. Both of them did not win the best prize in the competition because of the poor performance of the national team, which led to the low ranking. However, the FIVB only ranks according to the number of awards, which is inevitably unconvincing.
Another point is even more surprising, the second place is the American women's volleyball free man Oranst King, due to winning last year's world league and Olympic Games double best free man. And Larson, who won the MVP at the Tokyo Olympics, only ranked 6th, is the Olympic MVP not as good as the best free man?
Obviously, there is a certain problem with the FIVB evaluation. Although the number of awards is a major basis for judging, it should not be the largest basis. Rather, it depends on the athlete's competition data throughout the year and the role it plays. Some teams with average national team strength have athletes with outstanding personal strength, is it because they are not selected for the best team of the competition, this athlete is not on the best list?
In this way, the Chinese women's volleyball team members will definitely not be on the best list. There are no Chinese players among the 11 team members that have been announced, and the first place is even less likely to be a Chinese player. Last year's World League and Olympic Games, the Chinese women's volleyball team performed averagely, no players were selected for the best team, and there is no so-called list. Coupled with the fact that Chinese clubs did not participate in the Club World Cup, there was no chance to compete with players from other countries. I hope that this year's competition the Chinese women's volleyball team can return to the podium and let the players be listed on the list of the best team of the International Volleyball Federation.
