The Chinese team grabbed the ball, Huang Sijing and Yang Liwei made consecutive mistakes, Australia counterattacked, Wang Siyu broke through the layup, the two teams tied 2-2, the game went on for less than 2 minutes, the Chinese team made 3 mistakes, Australia expanded the score to 10-2, the Chinese team's defense obviously had problems, and Coach Zheng Wei took the initiative to suspend the arrangement and adjust.
After the pause, in the cooperation of the personnel, there are still a lot of mistakes, fortunately, Wang Siyu and Huang Sijing continued to score under the basket, Australia played well under the fast break and three-point, they also expanded the score to double digits, Wang Siyu went to rest, Li Yuan hit a three-point shot at the top of the arc to stop the bleeding, the Chinese team made 6 mistakes in this quarter, mainly the mistake of breaking through with the ball, the first quarter of the game ended, China 15-24 temporarily behind.

The Chinese team's half-time score: Wang Siyu 11 points, Li Yuan 5 points, Huang Sijing 4 points, 2 rebounds and 2 steals, Yang Liwei 2 points, Luo Xinqi 4 points, Tang Yu 4 points.
After halftime adjustments, Han Xu's state is still not improving, the problem of the Chinese team's mistakes is still not solved, Huang Sijing hit the key three points, Australia's basket has won many times, the Chinese team's defense basically can't keep up, and the score has gradually been widened, as Wang Siyu scored 5 points in a row, Wang Siyu struggled to play 2+1, and the Chinese team gradually narrowed the difference, but Australia's three points are still very accurate, Han Xu still hasn't scored in this section, and China is still behind 45-73 after the third quarter.
In the fourth quarter, the Chinese team had the momentum of a counterattack, and Australia immediately made substitutions to prevent the Chinese team from playing a smooth and effective attack, and the Chinese team made another mistake. The point difference was basically maintained at around 30 points, and finally lost to the opponent again. The Chinese team has a whole game, the offensive problems are still not solved, the passing mistakes are not cooperative, the double bag is not good, the defense is a mess, and it is a step to watch the empty basket of others. With the current state of the Chinese team, going to Paris is also a round trip, and there is really not much time left for the Chinese women's basketball team to adjust.
