In this Winter Olympic Games, there are 4 "post-90s" players and 1 "post-80s" players in the Russian Olympic Committee team, and the 29-year-old fourth baseman Grukhov has participated in many World Championships and European Championships, and has also been invited to China many times to participate in the China Open, Qinghai International Elite And other events, and is more familiar with Chinese players. The Chinese men's curling team's squad consisted of ma Xiuyue at fourth base, Zou Qiang at third base, Wang Zhiyu at second base, Xu Jingtao at first base and substitute Jiang Dongxu. This team was selected through the selection competition before the Winter Olympics, and the 5 athletes are all "post-90s" and have not yet had any foreign combat experience. The Chinese men's pot was once in the world's "second group", but after entering the Pyeongchang Winter Olympic cycle, the strength of the Chinese team declined and failed to qualify, this time holding the host 'pass card' to play in the Winter Olympics.

After the game, Ma Xiuyue, the captain of the Chinese team, said that the team in today's game was in good shape and had been controlling the game in the early stage, "but the overall connection of the ninth inning did not keep up, resulting in a big loss." Ma Xiuyue said that after the game, the coach also encouraged the team members for the first time, telling the team members not to be affected. He said that all the players will work hard to fight every game, "I dare not say to win a few games, but we must show the results of these 4 years of training, do not give up, do not give up." There are still 7 games in the back, just play the next game. ”
