On the afternoon of June 29, Beijing time, the Volleyball Sports Management Center of the General Administration of Sports of the People's Republic of China officially announced the final list of 12 players and substitutes for the Chinese women's volleyball team to participate in the Paris Olympic Games, the specific list is as follows:
Main attack: Li Yingying, Zhu Ting, Zhang Changning, Wu Mengjie
Secondary attack: Yuan Xinyue, Gao Yi, Wang Yuanyuan
Second setter: Diao Linyu, Ding Xia
Answer: Gong Xiangyu, Zheng Yixin
Free man: Wang Mengjie
Subs: Chong Yushan
Let's analyze the 12-member list of the Chinese women's volleyball team:
1. Yuan Xinyue, Zhu Ting, Gong Xiangyu, Zhang Changning and Ding Xia will all participate in the Olympics again as "veterans of the three dynasties".
Wang Yuanyuan, Li Yingying and Wang Mengjie are all participating in the Olympics for the second time, and they are the Mesozoic force of the Chinese women's volleyball team.
Diao Linyu, II-VI, Zheng Yixin, Wu Mengjie and Zhuang Yushan are all new forces participating in the Olympic Games for the first time, some of them are the focus of future training, and some are the leaders of their current positions.
2. The average age is 27.3 years old, which can be said to be the year of fighting, Ding Xia is the oldest at 34 years old, and Wu Mengjie and Zhuang Yushan are the youngest at 21 years old.
3. Two controversial players: Ding Xia and Zheng Yixin. First of all, Ding Xia has been deeply troubled by injuries in the past two years, has not played many games, and is 34 years old. I'm afraid that her selection is on the one hand because of her game experience, and on the other hand, it is also a last resort, because in comparison, she is still a veteran who can be trusted. Zhang Changning's shortlisting is similar to Ding Xia's situation. There is also Zheng Yixin, whose performance in the World Women's Volleyball League is also unsatisfactory, but she is also the key training object of the Paris Olympic cycle, and also has her own distinctive characteristics in blocking and running and attacking, and is an important role in the tactical change of the Chinese women's volleyball team.
4. There are still a few hidden concerns: Can the on-the-spot command under the guidance of Cai Bin control the Olympic Games? Has Zhu Ting's injuries all recovered? The two setters are both older, can they afford a fierce confrontation? To what extent has the state and atmosphere of the team adjusted?
