Not long ago, the Chinese women's basketball team completed the first game task in 2022, on the stage of the World Cup qualifiers, the Chinese women's basketball team set sail again, and won three games in the group stage, playing a very good result, but also injected a lot of confidence into all Chinese basketball fans. In particular, the big victory over france in the last game of more than 30 points really greatly improved the morale of the team. Then under the leadership of the new coach Zheng Wei, the Chinese women's basketball team is developing in a better direction.
But when the Chinese women's basketball team won a big victory and returned with this proud result, the team encountered a lot of trouble. Previously, we all knew that when the Chinese Basketball Association routinely tested before the women's basketball team returned to China, it exposed the positive test of 2 Chinese women's basketball players, which also attracted the attention of fans. The basketball association also took emergency measures at that time, and the women's basketball team also stayed in Serbia for quarantine observation because of this incident. After this incident happened, all the participants of Chinese basketball also blessed them, hoping that the women's basketball team could carry this hurdle. Including Yi Jianlian of the Guangdong team and general manager Zhu Fangyu, they all supported the Chinese women's basketball team at the first time. Then the majority of fans are also looking forward to the women's basketball team to be safe and sound, and are waiting for their good news.
But this time, in the waiting of fans, what awaits is not good news from the women's basketball team, but worse news. Then just yesterday, the Chinese Basketball Association announced the latest situation of the women's basketball team, and the notice of this situation is also completely so that the fans of the women's basketball team have some broken defenses. At 18:00 last night, the Chinese Basketball Association updated a notice about the women's basketball team, then according to this notice, we can see that in the latest test results, in addition to the original 2 players who were positive for infection, the Chinese women's basketball team has 7 positive additions, that is to say, there are currently 9 athletes in the Chinese women's basketball team who have been infected positive. So such news is undoubtedly a thunderbolt blow for the women's basketball team, and it is difficult for the fans to be optimistic. Because everyone knows that the biggest reason why the international epidemic is more troublesome this time is that the epidemic spreads relatively fast and has a strong transmission capacity, and at present, the Chinese women's basketball team has 9 infected people in a short period of time, which is indeed very troublesome.
It can be said that this is also the biggest worry of the Basketball Association, but it eventually happened. In my personal opinion, the Chinese women's basketball team has really paid a great price for this World Preliminary Tournament, carrying too much pressure. Maybe before, when the Chinese team went abroad to play many times, there was no big problem, but this time there was an accident. And this accident also made us really feel the difficulty of athletes and the danger of going abroad to compete under the current circumstances.
Of course, this matter should have nothing to do with the basketball association level organization, and it should be the local organizer to find a problem, and the serbian epidemic control has not been done well. But things have happened, we can only hope that the Chinese women's basketball team can survive this hurdle, hope that the whole team can overcome psychological pressure, peace of mind through the recovery and isolation period. Similarly, we also call on other sports in China to pay more attention to protection if the team members are involved in overseas competitions.
