It's finally here! The Chinese Volleyball Association announced the list of 13 women's volleyball players participating in the Paris Olympics (including the 12-person regular list and 1 P card player), whenever such a list is released, it will cause controversy, in fact, this is also unavoidable, from the perspective of fans, this is also concerned about the team, and as for who to bring to the Olympic Games, it depends on the decision of the coaching staff, the views of fans, and can only be opinions.
Let's take a closer look at this list of 12 people (not counting the substitute Zhuang Yushan), in the main offensive position, Zhu Ting, Li Yingying, Wu Mengjie, etc. are all expected, Zhang Changning also proved through the previous game that she "still has oil in the tank", her one-pass guarantee and serve, at least as a substitute, can still be used. Wang Yunlu unfortunately lost the selection, perhaps the coaching staff thinks that her offense is not good.
Zhu Ting and others have participated in the Olympic Games for three consecutive years, and there are "uncontroversial" players and "controversial players", especially the selection of Ding Xia and Zheng Yixin, which has been questioned by many fans. As for why, let's just look at the previous World Women's Volleyball League. Zheng Yixin's performance was not good before, and it can basically be said that in this position, Gong Xiangyu still has to bear most of the time, and there will not be too much rest time.
After the list was released, all parties also commented. The well-known media China Sports Daily also reported: the reporter learned that the principles of fairness, openness and impartiality were upheld, and the relevant systems and procedures were strictly followed. When commenting on Zheng Yixin, he said: Zheng Yixin, as a key training player of the Chinese women's volleyball team in the Paris Olympic cycle, has distinctive technical characteristics in blocking and running and attacking. When commenting on Ding Xia: Ding Xia has participated in a series of events such as the World Championships with the team since 2022, and has played her due role as a substitute.
