In the 2024 World Women's Volleyball League, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the Chinese women's volleyball team ushered in its third opponent, the Canadian team, and in the end, the Chinese team lost 1-3 to the Canadian team and suffered its first defeat.
An important task of the Chinese women's volleyball team in this year's World League is to get tickets to the Paris Olympics. In the first game against the relatively average South Korean team, the Chinese team easily swept 3-0 in three straight games and made a good start, which is also the first victory and good start of the Chinese women's volleyball team in this year's international competition.
In the second game, the Chinese team encountered a lot of challenges, in the face of the world's No. 2 American women's volleyball team at the time, the Chinese team won three games in a row 3-1 reversal in the case of losing a game, and won 2 consecutive victories. Canada have a 1-1 record in their first two matches, beating the Dominican Republic in their last game.

In the second game, the Chinese team opened up the score gap early, and won 25-20 without danger, with a big score of 1-1. In the third game, the Canadian team grasped the key points, won 25-23, and led again 2-1. In the fourth game, the Chinese team fell behind from the beginning to overtake, but in the key points, the Chinese team continued to send points, and the Canadian team defeated the Chinese team 25-22 with a big score of 3-1.
