The Chinese women's volleyball team at the World Championships won a good lottery and was assigned to a good group to ensure that it could enter the round of 16. After entering the round of 16, the Chinese women's volleyball team has been lucky and divided into a good group. Look at the opponents encountered by the Chinese women's volleyball team after two groupings, you can see how lucky the Chinese women's volleyball team is. The opponents of group A (Group A) are: Brazil, Japan, Colombia, Argentina and the Czech Republic; the top four of Group A reached the round of 16 and the top four of Group D were combined to form Group E. After entering Group E, as expected, the opponents are the Netherlands, Italy, Belgium, Puerto Rico, the four teams, and overall the weak teams are strong and the teams are few.
These teams are all teams that the Chinese women's volleyball team has never lost in recent years, and the Chinese women's volleyball team has a long rainbow trend. From the perspective of the strength of the team, the only teams that pose the greatest threat to the Chinese women's volleyball team are the Italian women's volleyball team and the Brazilian women's volleyball team. However, the Italian women's volleyball team has not won the Chinese women's volleyball team since 2019, and even lost to the Chinese women's volleyball second team in the World League that year. In such a high-level event as the Olympic Games, the performance of the Italian women's volleyball team was also average, the attack was good but there were many mistakes, and it was eventually swept by the Chinese women's volleyball team.
Although the Brazilian women's volleyball team won the runner-up of the Tokyo Olympic Games, it did not play against the Chinese women's volleyball team at the Tokyo Olympic Games. In the World Cup and world league before the Olympic Games, the Chinese women's volleyball team defeated the Brazilian women's volleyball team. It is worth mentioning that in the 2021 World League, the Chinese women's volleyball team only has Zhang Changning single-handedly as a main force, and still defeated the Brazilian women's volleyball team that is fully main, so the Chinese women's volleyball team has a strong psychological advantage over the current Brazilian women's volleyball team.
Of course, the Chinese women's volleyball team may pose a threat to the Dutch women's volleyball team and the Japanese women's volleyball team. However, the Dutch women's volleyball team is no longer the era of Sloter Coconut Silk, showing the true color of the dark horse, and returning to the Second Fashion Column of Europe after the prosperity is over. The Japanese women's volleyball team is small and fast, often has unexpected results, however, the Chinese women's volleyball team, whether in the trough period or in the peak period, basically plays the role of the Japanese women's volleyball nemesis.
The above four opponents have no advantage over the Chinese women's volleyball team, and the remaining teams have basically become the sparring partners of the Chinese women's volleyball team. That is to say, the Chinese women's volleyball team has the advantage of a long rainbow in the A and E groups. After the Group E competition, the top four will reach the quarter-finals of the World Championships. The Chinese women's volleyball team entering the top eight is not a problem, the key is that the Chinese women's volleyball team can seek a good ranking to enter the top eight. Due to the semi-zone knockout format of this World Championship, the team will not change the venue until the medals are decided. That is to say, the Arnhem division where the Chinese women's volleyball team is located will directly determine two of the top four places in the World Championship. To put it bluntly, in the process of advancing to the final four, all the opponents of the Chinese women's volleyball team are teams that they have never lost in recent years. This is a very good sign for the Chinese women's volleyball team.
As long as it enters the final four, the Chinese women's volleyball team is likely to face its old rivals the American women's volleyball team and the Serbian women's volleyball team. In fact, in recent years, American women have excluded the victory over the Chinese women's volleyball team at the Tokyo Olympic Games, and other major competitions have been defeated by the Chinese women's volleyball team. Although the Serbian women's volleyball team does not play much with the Chinese women's volleyball team, the style of holding high and playing high has always been unable to restrain the Chinese women's volleyball team. Therefore, in the face of these opponents, the Chinese women's volleyball team still has a good chance of winning. The defeat of the Chinese women's volleyball team in the Olympic Games can only show that the state of the Chinese women's volleyball team has been sluggish for a while, and it does not mean that the Chinese women's volleyball team has entered a new trough. Although the Chinese women's volleyball team lacks Zhu Ting, as long as Zhang Changning can return to the horns with Li Yingying, the Chinese women's volleyball team is still a strong team. At present, the Chinese women's volleyball team is plagued by injuries and replacements, but there is a good opportunity to win the championship in the difficulties, and perhaps the Chinese women's volleyball team will win the world championship after 36 years.
