The harvest of the World Men's Volleyball League
Looking back at the past period, the First Chinese Men's Volleyball Team to get the attention of the public may be traced back to 2 months ago, the World Men's Volleyball League Brazil competition. At that time, facing the world's first and host Brazil team, the Chinese men's volleyball team picked out the opponent 3:0.
In that game, the young main attacker Zhang Jingyin blasted down 25 points, and the team broke out of the cold at the same time, but also let everyone begin to pay attention to the new Chinese men's volleyball team. "The men's volleyball team has won attention with its own actions." Here are the words left by a fan in the comments section.

Although it did not qualify for the Finals of the World Men's Volleyball League in the end, after the end of all the competitions in the sub-station competition, the world ranking of the Chinese men's volleyball team came to 19th.
According to the quota mechanism of the men's volleyball event at the Paris Olympic Games, the host France automatically qualifies, and the remaining 24 top-ranked teams in the world can participate in the Olympic qualification tournament. It can be said that at that time, the Chinese men's volleyball team had already taken the initiative into their own hands.
After the trip to the World Men's Volleyball League, Wu Sheng, the head coach of the Chinese men's volleyball team, said, "This participation in the World Men's Volleyball League has enhanced the confidence of the players and the coaching staff, and also let everyone see the potential of the team." ”
Compared with the women's volleyball team, the historical record and attention of the Chinese men's volleyball team are much inferior, and being able to re-enter the Olympic stage is also the goal that the new Chinese men's volleyball team has been striving for.
What kind of Chinese men's volleyball team is this
To use a slightly ridiculous sentence to describe: this is a Chinese men's volleyball team that can win the game with strength and rush to the hot search.
After the reversal of the victory over the South Korean team on the evening of the 13th Beijing time, for a time, there were 4 topic entries about the Chinese men's volleyball team that were also on the hot search; When the World Men's Volleyball League picked out Brazil, the team's outstanding performance also rushed to the hot search. If there is any importance to a team's performance in competitive sports, this is a powerful proof.
Again, it's a dynamic team that dares to lower its stance and challenge its opponents.

Although he defeated the Brazilian men's volleyball team, in Wu Sheng's mouth, "impacting the opponent" is still the sentence he mentions the most. "There is still a gap between our technology and Brazil, and if we don't put it in the right position, it's very difficult."
As an important warm-up for the Chinese men's volleyball team before the World Championships, this Asian Cup is attached great importance to the whole team, and further grinds the lineup while testing the results of European training.
Zhang Guanhua, who won the winning points for the Chinese men's volleyball team in the semifinals, said, "This ball is the result of everyone's concerted efforts, it is played by the team, everyone has tried their best, but if one person does not do his best, it is impossible to win this game." ”
