The Women's Volleyball World Championship is coming, and Wu Mengjie, who performed well in the Asian Cup, has not yet heard the news of entering the national team. Wu Mengjie, like Li Yingying, plays the fourth position in the national team, so many people think that the national team does not need Wu Mengjie with Li Yingying. So what is the difference between Wu Mengjie and Li Yingying? Playing against the same opponent is convincing.
In less than three months, the Chinese women's volleyball team competed in two events in two ways. One way, Li Yingying's first team participated in the World League, and the other way was Wu Mengjie's second team participated in the Asian Cup. The two events have different ranges, and the opponents are naturally very different. However, the first team and the second team have the same opponent, that is, the Thai women's volleyball team. The Thai women's volleyball team participated in the World League and also participated in the Asian Cup with almost the same lineup, playing against the first and second teams of the Chinese women's volleyball team. Therefore, the Thai women's volleyball team is a reference for the comparison of the first and second teams of the Chinese women's volleyball team, and it is also a touchstone for the comparison of the players of the first and second teams.
As we all know, in the match with the Thai women's volleyball team, the first team of the Chinese women's volleyball team lost 2-3 in the World League, while the second team won 3-2 in the Asian Cup. The Chinese women's volleyball team has two main scoring points in both matches, one team is Li Yingying who scored 27 points with 11 mistakes, and the second team is Wu Mengjie who scored 29 points with 9 mistakes. Look at the total score Wu Mengjie slightly ahead, look at the net score Wu Mengjie is still ahead.
However, this lead is not the point, the focus is on how much restrictions are made on the opposing player while maintaining the score, which can better reflect the value of a player. Li Yingying and Wu Mengjie are both the main attackers who play the fourth position in the team, and the opponents are the second position of the Thai women's volleyball team, Pingpi Chaya. In the match between the World League and the Thai women's volleyball team, although Li Yingying scored 27 points, she let the opposite Pinpichaya score 28 points. In the Asian Cup match with the Thai women's volleyball team, Wu Mengjie scored a high score of 29 points, but only let the opposite Pingpi Chaya get 12 points.
In this way, in terms of offense, Wu Mengjie has both the front row and the back row, and the offensive means and efficiency are not inferior to Li Yingying; In terms of limiting the opponent's attack, Wu Mengjie did a better job than Li Yingying. In fact, in the World League, in the 5 games lost by the Chinese women's volleyball team, the opponents who were opposite Li Yingying achieved a high score, but Wu Mengjie did not have this situation in the Asian Cup. However, Wu Mengjie also has deficiencies, that is, the first pass is currently not better than Li Yingying.
Of course, not only a pass, the biggest disadvantage of Wu Mengjie compared with Li Yingying is age. He is old and powerful, and he has a lot of experience in the game. Wu Mengjie is only 20 years old, and the slam is slightly worse; Although Li Yingying is only 22 years old, she has reached a state that can only be found at the age of twenty-five or six. Undoubtedly, age is also a secret weapon of Li Yingying.
In such a comparison, in fact, Wu Mengjie and Li Yingying are not much different, and they are very suitable for entering the national team to participate in the World Championships. Some people always like to oppose Wu Mengjie and Li Yingying, in fact, these two players can be both diagonal and substitute for each other. Anyway, in the future Paris Olympic Games or los Angeles Olympic Games, Wu Mengjie always has to fight side by side with Li Yingying, it is better to exercise in advance to lay the foundation for future competitions.
