Rio Olympic hero, The Chinese women's volleyball freeman Lin Li low-key retired, and the failure to win the Tokyo Olympics laid the groundwork
The Chinese women's volleyball team has recently changed blood, and the appointment of the protestant head Cai Bin means that the women's volleyball team has launched a new chapter, and Lang Ping has officially bid farewell. Many Rio Olympic gold medal heroes have retired, just like Lin Li, a free person who has always acted low-key, has also quietly faded out of the volleyball world.
Cai Bin officially took up the position of head coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team in February, and in the training camp and the list of top priorities, he only recruited three Rio Olympic champions Yuan Xinyue, Ding Xia and Gong Xiangyu, and the remaining 64 people were more new faces.
In fact, after the Rio Olympics, many members of the gold medal squad have also retired, including Hui Ruoqi, Wei Qiuyue, Liu Xiaotong and Xu Yunli, but Lin Li, who is only 29 years old, also left the volleyball court and quietly.
Lin Li is very low-key, does not care about personal honors, even if she was selected as the best free person at the Rio Olympics, she is not willing to face any praise. Even when she retired, she did not make a big fuss, but quietly stopped registering for the volleyball league and left silently.
After retiring at the age of 29, many people felt sorry for this, but some people speculated that they had lost the Tokyo Olympic army, which made Lin Li have the idea of retiring. Just before last year's Olympic World Women's Volleyball League (VNL), Lin Li's performance seriously declined, and a pass that was known for its stability was frequently damaged by opponents, coupled with the decline in physical fitness, the response to flying saves was not as good as Wang Mengjie, so at that time, Lang Ping let go of a small general appointment, which is not unreasonable.
Stepping into the blood exchange period, Lin Li's departure also helps a new generation of free people emerge. Who expected Wang Mengjie's performance at the Tokyo Olympics was also unsatisfactory, and the position of free person in the Chinese women's volleyball team has not yet been the best candidate.
