The Chinese women's volleyball team took the tickets for the Paris Olympic Games, but the Asian Volleyball Federation protested against the new Olympic regulations, but it was superfluous
Just after the FIVB promulgated the channels for the generation of men's and women's volleyball teams for the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, the Asian Volleyball Federation was the first to stand up against the new Olympic rules, pointing out that if the Olympic Qualification Tournament did not have an Asian team to stand out, then the only ticket in Asia was the Chinese women's volleyball team, but if it was changed to the mode of losing the selection, the Chinese women's volleyball team still had a high probability of winning the championship, thus taking away this qualification, and the protest of the Asian Volleyball Federation can only be said to be redundant.
The FIVB's ownership of tickets for the Paris Olympic Games has been greatly changed from the previous Olympic selection methods, canceling the previous continental Olympic year's final selection. The first level to qualify for the Paris Olympic Games is the top 24 teams in the world rankings, divided into three groups of 8 teams each, playing a big round of the way, to determine the top 2 teams with the highest results, a total of 6 teams to get tickets to the Paris Olympic Games, the remaining 5 places will be ranked according to the world ranking in Europe, Asia, Central and North America, South America and Africa The top teams directly shortlisted, the host French team guaranteed to participate.
The Asian Volleyball Federation strongly protested against such a selection method, if the lower ranked team, simply not eligible to participate in the World Women's Volleyball League, the ranking will certainly not enter the top 24, not only is not eligible to participate in the Olympic qualification competition, but also impossible to qualify for the Paris Olympic Games as the first in Asia.
As everyone knows, there are almost no dark horses in the Olympic Games, the world rankings are also in the top 24, if even the World Women's Volleyball League is not eligible to participate, it is certainly not a strong team, even if it is in accordance with the wishes of the Asian Volleyball Federation, from the world ranking to the way of the losing competition, then the team outside the ranking of 24, simply can not afford to fight against such a strong team as China, Japan, South Korea and Thailand, is it that Iran, India, Lebanon and other women's volleyball teams have an upset to win the finals on the stage of the Paris Olympic Games?
The Chinese women's volleyball team in paris Olympic prospects are very clear, in the Olympic qualification competition, the probability of the previous two to get the ticket is very large, according to the ranking group, the world's top 6 United States, Brazil, China, Turkey, Serbia, Italy may have to two or two together, the rest of the team is difficult to create a threat to the six strong, so the Chinese women's volleyball team as long as the normal play, into the Olympic qualification of the top 2 have suspense but also strength.
Step back if the Chinese women's volleyball team loses the Olympic qualification tournament, with the current high ranking of the world's No. 3, there is no doubt that the Olympic qualification tournament in the Asian region is also unquestionable, and the Japanese women's volleyball team, which ranks no. 2 in Asia, is only ranked 9th in the world, and the gap is too large for the Chinese women's volleyball team to get tickets to the Paris Olympic Games.
For the sake of fairness, the Asian Volleyball Federation gives the weak teams a fair competition environment, and strongly requires the International Volleyball Federation to change the selection system and restore the way of booking tickets for the past defeats, but if it is really to play the qualification tournament in The Asian region, the Chinese women's volleyball team is still one of the strongest teams in Asia, and the possibility of Japan, South Korea and Thailand being upset is not large, no matter what way to determine the team of the Paris Olympic Games, the Chinese women's volleyball team has always had a huge advantage in Asia.
