In the end, the on-site referee determined that there were two teams in the same group who committed fouls, and the Chinese team advanced to the final of Group A.

Ren Ziwei said that the team's winning process has been full of twists and turns, but everyone is trying to adjust the state for the common goal. In the final, at the moment of the rush, Wu Dajing took the lead in crossing the finish line with a knife tip ahead of the Italian team.
