Recently, the Chinese women's volleyball team arrived in Brazil to prepare for the competition, and the next step is to start the first leg of the World League in Brazil. As the countdown to the tournament is approaching, I would like to share with you the arrangements for the first game of the Chinese women's volleyball team and the good news from the team.
First of all, from the perspective of the schedule, the Chinese women's volleyball team will start the first game of the World League at half past four in the morning on May 15, CCTV5 will broadcast live, and the opponent is the South Korean women's volleyball team. For the Chinese women's volleyball team, they couldn't win the direct pass to the Paris Olympics last year, and they can't take it easy in every game this year, and they must strive to defeat their opponents by a big score. This time against the South Korean women's volleyball team, there are actually two very important meanings for the Chinese women's volleyball team.
First of all, this is the first veritable international competition of the Chinese women's volleyball team this year, so it is very important for the Chinese women's volleyball team to get off to a good start, and it is bound to build the team's confidence by defeating the South Korean women's volleyball team. At the same time, it can also let the outside world know that the Chinese women's volleyball team is a strong team, which can cause psychological deterrence to the opponents behind the group.
In addition, the Chinese women's volleyball team ushered in many young new faces this year, and also ushered in the return of Zhang Changning, a veteran, and Zhu Ting will also return to the team in the future. Under such circumstances, the new and old lineups are recombined, can the Chinese women's volleyball team play a different power? It also needs to be witnessed through this game.
So no matter from which point of view, the Chinese women's volleyball team's match against the South Korean women's volleyball team is of great significance, and it has been more than a simple game.
Of course, for Li Yingying and Zhang Changning, the main players of the Chinese women's volleyball team, if they start from the strength of both teams, there will definitely not be too many problems in defeating the South Korean women's volleyball team in this game. But if you want to inspire the self-confidence of the whole team, the Chinese women's volleyball team should strive to sweep the opponent 3-0 in this game and win the game anyway. It is worth mentioning that Zhang Changning recently scored 17 points in the warm-up match against the Brazilian women's volleyball team, and as the Olympic god of war who scored 36 points in the World League that year, Zhang Changning is bound to be of great help to the Chinese women's volleyball team this time.
On the other hand, from the perspective of the opponents arranged in the group, after playing the South Korean women's volleyball team, the next step is to face the Serbian women's volleyball team, the Netherlands women's volleyball team and the United States women's volleyball team. Therefore, for the Chinese women's volleyball team, the challenge is getting bigger and bigger, and the opponent faced each time is stronger than the previous opponent.
Based on this consideration, the Chinese women's volleyball team must be psychologically prepared next, and cannot relax after defeating the South Korean women's volleyball team, and must realize that each opponent will become more and more powerful and the challenge will become bigger and bigger. Otherwise, if you don't do a good job in psychological construction, the Chinese women's volleyball team is easy to panic and add a lot of pressure to yourself, and at the same time, young players are easy to lose the game if they are easy to panic.
If the first leg of the game cannot achieve good results, even if the second leg of the game ushers in the return of Zhu Ting, it may be difficult for the Chinese women's volleyball team to achieve good results. Once it encounters Waterloo in this World League, the Chinese women's volleyball team may create the worst results and miss the ticket to the Paris Olympics, which is certainly not what fans want to see.
All in all, I still hope that the Chinese women's volleyball team will stabilize its mentality in the first game, and on the other hand, there will not be too much pressure and baggage. According to the strength performance of the Chinese women's volleyball team, there should not be too many problems on the podium of the World League this time. Finally, I wish the Chinese women's volleyball team all the best in its journey to the World League.
