According to the news of Turkish Volleyball Magazine, the 22-23 season Wakif Bank women's volleyball team will change the new captain, the current captain Meris because he and Ferro have completed the engagement, so they will choose to retire at the end of the season, and gabi, a famous main attacker from the Brazilian women's volleyball team, will take over the captaincy position and become the new captain of the team.
In fact, Wakif Bank's choice of Gabi as the new captain is also within the predictable range, because although Meris is the captain, he is more often suppressed by the main forces such as Zehra, so almost all Gabi communicates with the referee as the captain of the field in the game. Gabi was favored by Wakif Bank after Zhu Ting returned to the volleyball super, and replaced Zhu Ting's position.
After several years of running-in, Gabi and the team have become more and more cooperative, and they have also helped Wakif win multiple championships. Born in 1994, Gabi is a representative of the short main attack of the international volleyball world, although her height is not high, less than 1 meter 8, but with excellent bounce and rich changes in techniques, she can always find the opponent's net blocking loopholes or opponent's defensive flaws, and use clever landing points to score.
The new cycle of the Brazilian women's volleyball team, with the gradual fading of Figare and Natalia, Gabi is afraid that it will become the absolute core of the team, leading a wave of young players to train in international competitions. In the Chinese volleyball world, many fans have given their short main attackers the title of "Little Gabi", such as Wu Han of the Jiangsu women's volleyball team and Zhonghui of the Shanghai women's volleyball team. But in terms of actual effects, the gap between Wu HanZhonghui and Gabi is still very large.
Wu Han was the thigh of the team during the national youth women's volleyball team, but unfortunately, the adult team did not fully transform its potential into strength. Although it once became the main force of the Jiangsu women's volleyball team, it was finally counterattacked by Xu Ruoya. In the 21-22 season of the Super League, Wu Han once again became the main force, partnering with Wu Mengjie. Compared with the past, Wu Han still has obvious progress, and one pass, defense and attack can all be independent.
Zhonghui and Wu Han are almost the same age difference, and they are also representatives of the main attack of the short in China. In previous leagues, Zhonghui was transferred to the Yunnan women's volleyball team and returned to the Shanghai women's volleyball team through tempering. In the 21-22 season, Zhonghui became the main force of the team, partnering Jin Softjing or Larson. Under the guidance of two international stars, Zhonghui is still more varied in her slam dunking techniques, but a pass and defense are still her weaker links.
If the two "little Gabi" in China want to truly become Gabi, they also need to improve in all aspects. So, will the new Chinese women's volleyball team try the high and short side attack combination of the Brazilian women's volleyball team? Although volleyball is a "tall man" sport, the higher the height of the main attacker, the more dominant, but the combination of a tall and a short may not be impossible. Although the short players will suffer losses in the net, they have an advantage in speed, and if Wu Han and Zhonghui can play the "lightning level" tactic, it is very likely that they will occupy a place.
The women's volleyball golden generation played a high-and-short combination at the beginning of the generation, with Zhang Jing partnering Yang Hao. Zhang Jing's no. 4 high-point strong attack helped the team solve many adjustment attack problems, Yang Hao's flat pull was the fastest in the world at that time, and she used her speed to frequently tear open the opponent's barrier and become a sharp weapon to grab points. If Wu Han and Zhonghui can take over the mantle, they can form a new generation of tall and short combinations with Li Yingying. For more exciting content, come and follow Volleyball GoldenEye
