I believe everyone knows that the Chinese team, which is in Group A of the women's basketball team at the Paris Olympics, still failed to become one of the third of the two best groups after the first group final game and defeated Puerto Rico with 22 points to win the first victory, so as to qualify for the quarterfinals, which is really a sigh.
This kind of plot used to be so familiar, from the men's football team to the men's basketball team, and now it is finally the turn of the women's basketball team, and the promotion depends on the face of others, even if this time the calculation stage was once very optimistic, but when the initiative is in the hands of others, it is not a matter after all. Sure enough, the Belgium women's basketball team won by exactly 27 points on the premise that only by winning more than 26 points against Japan can surpass China in terms of net difference, and the Japan team is not funny for the time being, when the game is over, it can be seen from the expressions of the Belgium women's basketball players that they themselves can't believe such a result.
Immediately afterwards, the Canada women's basketball team was overturned by the Nigerian women's basketball team after leading at halftime, which won two and outperformed the Chinese team, further reducing our chances of qualifying. And the outcome of this game also caused a domino effect - after Nigeria locked in two wins, even if France lost to the Kangaroos in the final game, they could lock up the top spot in the group. Sure enough, the host did not go all out, and was finally won by Australia, completely ruining the idea of the Chinese women's basketball team advancing to the quarterfinals.
Three years ago at the Tokyo Olympics, the Chinese women's basketball team suffered in the quarterfinals against the Serbia women's basketball team, and finally only achieved the fifth result. Three years later, he came to Paris and went to the front basket to agree on the goal of the Final Four, but even the Final Eight became a luxury...... In all fairness, in the case of such a bad performance in the warm-up game, the women's basketball team actually has a good chance to turn the tables against the wind and play a beautiful turnaround battle, and the blame is only on the faint moves in the first game against the Spain women's basketball team, and it is hard to put themselves in such a passive situation, depending on the faces of others.
With 27 seconds left in regulation time and a five-point lead, how many mistakes do you have to make to give up the victory? The women's basketball team can make mistakes again and again, giving the opponent a chance to turn the game around in overtime. In the 2019 Men's Basketball World Cup, the Chinese men's basketball team was only one step away from defeating Poland, encountered a "world-class problem" - the trouble of serving on the sideline, and was finally dragged into overtime and lost the game, and finally failed to get a direct ticket to the Tokyo Olympics. Now that the same plot is unfolding, who is to blame for this failed farce? Should it be a loud reminder to the players not to foul in the last period of the first game, but can still only witness the players send out additional penalties in a row? Ay......
