In the early morning of May 18, Beijing time, the Brazilian station of the 2024 World Women's Volleyball League continued, and the Chinese women's volleyball team ushered in the third opponent of the group stage, the Canadian women's volleyball team.

The Chinese women's volleyball team won both games in the group stage of this year's World League, while the Canadian women's volleyball team won one win and one loss, including a 1-3 loss to the host Brazil, but a 3-0 victory over Dominica. Before the game, the Chinese women's volleyball team ranked 6th in the instant ranking, and the Canadian women's volleyball team ranked 11th. So if the Chinese team loses 0-3, it will deduct 13.51 points, and if it wins the game 3-0, it will only get 6.49 points.

In the Paris Olympic Qualifying Tournament last year, the Chinese women's volleyball team lost 2-3 at home to the Canadian women's volleyball team. In this game, the Chinese team played 1-1 in the first two games, and was reversed by the opponent in the third and fourth games while leading, and finally lost 1-3 and suffered the first defeat in the World League. Li Yingying scored 24 points, but Canada's Van Rijk scored 27 points and Gray 21 points. The Chinese women's volleyball team was deducted 11.01 points, overtaken by Italy, falling to 7th place, and the Japanese team ranked 8th, with a difference of only 5 points between the two sides.

Contest Details:

In the first game, the Chinese team got off to a bad start and fell behind 3-7. After the pause, he chased 4 points in a row, and after that, the score of the two sides was deadlocked, and it was a stalemate until 16 draws. The Chinese team lost four points in a row after 16-15, and the Canadian team won the game point at 24-21, and finally lost the first game 22-25.

In the last game against the American women's volleyball team, the Chinese women's volleyball team had an absolute advantage in blocking the net, but in the first game of this game, the serving, deduction and blocking were all behind the opponent and they lost unjustly. Facing Wu Mengjie, who did not score a point against the American team, she lived up to the trust of her coach and scored a team-high 6 points in the first game. Canada's Van Rijk scored eight points in a single game.

In the second game, the Chinese team strengthened its serve, and Wu Mengjie also continued the offensive state of the first game, and the score was opened early. But at 20-12, Wu Mengjie's pass was impacted and could not form an effective attack, and the Chinese team lost 4 points in a row, and had to let Li Yingying withdraw to help receive a pass, so as to barely get through this round. Li Yingying sent and buckled the gong, and the Chinese team withstood the opponent's counterattack and finally pulled back a city 25-20.

In this game, the Chinese team won 17-12 in attack, which was exactly 5 points. The net is a little better than the first game, but it needs to be strengthened.

In the crucial third game, Wu Mengjie was chased again, and the Canadian team made a 3-0 start, and there seemed to be signs of a resurgence. However, the Chinese team's blocking skills awakened, and a wave of 6-1 scoring was launched, overtaking the score 7-4.

Seeing this good situation, he was lost 5 points in a row by the card wheel at 10-7, resulting in a 10-12 deficit. finally chased 17 draws, and lost 3 points in a row again. Although the Chinese team once chased 22 draws, it still lost 23-25 in the end.

In this game, the Chinese team lost in one pass, serving 0-4, and the Canadian team scored many times with rolling tennis. After changing Zhang Changning's serve at the end of the game, let her stay on the court.

In the fourth game, Zhang Changning replaced Wu Mengjie as the starter.

The Chinese team led 4-1 at the beginning, and although the opponent once overtook the score 8-7, the Chinese team quickly re-established a three-point lead. But at the beginning of the game, Gray, the captain of the Canadian women's volleyball team, kept looking for the referee and assistant referee to theorize, disrupting the rhythm of the game several times.

With the Chinese team leading 17-12, the Canadian team overtook the score 22-20 as Van Rijk scored three points in a row with a strong jump. Fortunately, at the critical moment, Van Rijk stepped on the line in the second attack, which gave us a breather. But then Li Yingying and Zhang Changning couldn't catch the opponent's strong jump, and lost 3 points in a row at the end of the game, and finally lost 1-3.

The Chinese women's volleyball team exposed 4 shortcomings

1. Slow heating. In the three games, in addition to facing the weak South Korean women's volleyball team, the Chinese women's volleyball team faced the United States and Canada, all of which lost one game before gradually finding the state of the game, and they were slow to heat up before the game. 2. The main attack is unstable. Wu Mengjie's pass was unstable, and she "exploded" from time to time. In the fourth game, Li Yingying partnered with Zhang Changning, and also failed to catch Van Rijk's strong jump. 3. The second pass is the weaker link. Diao Linyu's back passing ability is insufficient, and the back pass rarely has the ball in place. Ding Xia came off the bench and was not in shape at all, and the continuous passes to the No. 4 position were not in place. 4. The player's state fluctuates greatly. For example, Wang Yuanyuan faced the United States team in the last game and scored 8 points in blocking the net, but in this game there was only 1 point in the net, which did not limit the two major attackers of the Canadian team, Van Rijk and Gray.
