Oh my God, look at this Nigerian women's basketball team, what kind of thing is it playing! Canada guy is too watery, right? I thought about rushing to this position, Nigeria directly gave Canada a "left, right, left" three punches to take away, and it was not a problem to advance to the quarterfinals. No, Okonkovo fought with injuries, tears in his eyes, that energy, it was really ruthless!
Pity our Chinese girl, now you have to be careful, this right to come out, you still have to look at the faces of Australia and France? Oh my god, my heart is so tired...
Look at this game, Nigeria and Canada are two bitter rivals, that's on the bar! The first quarter was 18 draws, which was really equal and indistinguishable. Look at the second section, Nigeria's momentum is leveraged! Edwards cut in the air, Colley made a steal and layup, and Balogun hit a three-pointer...... This one by one, as if it was blooming, Bangbang Bangbang scored!
The scene of the injury of Nigeria's main player Okonkovo is worrying to watch. These sisters are in tears, they insist on being injured, and they are really admirable! The confrontation on the court was fierce, Moussa and Balogun worked hard to make damage, and Colli and Alexander were not to be outdone, and the three-point shot came as soon as they opened their mouths.
But to be honest, Canada's rebounding advantage is really obvious. Kohli scored three points one after another, and directly stopped Nigeria! Prospel's three-step pick-up is also picturesque. At halftime, Canada led 41-37, which was normal.
But if you look at the second half, Nigeria's momentum, ouch I'll go, it's really fierce! Kalu, Akpana and Amkamara took turns to play a wave of 9-0, directly knocking Canada into confusion! After this half quarter, Canada didn't score a point, this defense, it's really bad...
Nigeria didn't care about this, they took advantage of the victory, Balogun scored three points again, and Okongowo also scored four points in a row despite the injury, and beat the Canada defense alive! At the end of the third quarter, Nigeria had a 14-point lead of 60-46, and this situation was basically grasped.
The final quarter of Luna called a miserable, Canada's shooting rate plummeted, and it felt like it was being guarded by Nigeria. Although Achiuwa can get points, the overall state is not online. On the other hand, in Nigeria, Inabosi, Kalu, and Okongowo took turns bombing and killing the game. In the final moments, Canada's defensive toughness did not help, and the outcome of the game was already sealed.
Throughout the game, Nigeria defeated Canada 79-70 and reached the quarterfinals for the first time in history. Canada, on the other hand, was demoralized throughout the game, fearful on the offensive end, and full of holes on the defensive end, and was completely crushed by Nigeria. I feel like this team has no soul.
As for our Chinese girls, this is miserable. I was expecting Canada to win so that I could give myself a chance to qualify, but as a result... It's really speechless! Now it depends on the "broken things" of Australia and France, once people drop the chain, the Chinese team will definitely be out! Alas, what a "miserable" word...
To tell the truth, the Chinese women's basketball team's Olympic journey is really bumpy. First of all, two consecutive defeats in the group stage, finally won against Belgium, and the last game had to depend on people's faces... Saying it makes people laugh out of their big teeth!
No, the worst fears still happened. Canada lost, Australia and France had not yet played, and the Chinese team had already been roasted on the fire! It's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and the boat was late and encountered a head wind.
With such a calculation, the prospects of the Chinese women's basketball team are bleak, which is really suffocating. Everyone is sighing, why is it so close? After four years of hard training, I fell off the chain at the last moment, which is really a bit unwilling.
But then again, the problems of the Chinese women's basketball team were by no means formed overnight. Fundamentally speaking, the imperfect youth training system, weak reserve forces, and low level of professional leagues are all objective "pain points".
Coupled with injury troubles and ups and downs in on-court performance, these subjective and objective factors are superimposed, resulting in the Chinese women's basketball team always being almost meaningless in international competitions. After four years of reincarnation, the girl tried her best, but there is still a gap with the world's strongest teams, this is the reality.
Therefore, if the Chinese women's basketball team wants to return to the top, it must make a painful determination to reinvent itself from the roots. Improve youth training, strengthen the league, introduce high-quality foreign aid from various parties, and strengthen psychological construction and on-the-spot adaptability. Only in this way can we truly narrow the gap with the world's strongest teams.
Of course, just talk about it, don't practice fake tricks. The reform of the Chinese women's basketball team must make real moves and move in real style, not just shouting slogans and going through the motions. Only by being down-to-earth and persevering can we exchange for the beautiful vision of "another village".
Right now, the Chinese women's basketball team is hanging in the quarterfinals, and it will be a trip home if nothing else. This bitter defeat hopes to give the girl a wake-up call and a wake-up call for Chinese basketball. The road is long, and the "Phoenix Nirvana" of the Chinese women's basketball team has a long way to go...
So in the end, the editor wants to ask: Even an African sister like Okonkovo can fight hard with injuries and turn the tide; And Canada, which should be stronger, is languishing in the battle of life and death, the gap between the two teams, is it resources, talent, or heart? What do you think about this?
