"If you don't experience wind and rain, how can you see a rainbow."
In the sports arena, victory and defeat are common, but the Chinese women's volleyball team lost 2-3 to Turkey in the eight-in-four match of the Paris Olympics, which is extremely emotional.
This is not only a loss of a game, but also the farewell of an era.
Zhu Ting said before the game that she cherished this last opportunity, and many veterans may have been in the retirement arrangement.
Although Li Yingying worked hard but was born at the wrong time, although the newcomer emerged, it was difficult to call it amazing.
The women's volleyball team is facing a large-scale blood exchange, and the road ahead is full of challenges.
But the spirit of the women's volleyball team will always be there, let us walk into this event full of regrets and hopes.
1. Emotional resonance outside the game
The result may be disappointing, but every moment on the field is moving.
When the commentator Hui Ruoqi burst into tears during the commentary, the hearts of countless audiences trembled.
She confessed affectionately: "These girls really did their best, and their efforts deserve everyone's respect." ”
This sentence is not only an affirmation of the players, but also the most sincere praise for the spirit of the women's volleyball team.
At that moment, all the wins and losses no longer matter, what matters is the love and persistence of volleyball.
Second, the changes and persistence on the field
Looking back on the whole game, the performance of the Chinese women's volleyball team is not without highlights.
Compared with the previous World League, they have shown a more stable and mature side in many aspects.
Whether it is the sharpness of the offense or the tenacity of the defense, it makes people see the growth and progress of this team.
The cruelty of competitive sports is that it is often a small mistake that can make the difference between a game.
In this contest with Turkey, although the Chinese women's volleyball team had an opportunity, it failed to grasp every possible reversal moment.
What's even more regrettable is that there was also an unfair referee penalty in the game, which undoubtedly added a bit of unfairness to the girls' already difficult road to the game.
But even so, they still did not give up, every time they fell to the ground to save the ball, every time they smashed, it was the most vivid interpretation of the spirit of the women's volleyball team.
3. The persistence of veterans and the rise of new stars
When the camera turns to the sidelines, we see those familiar and slightly vicissitudes of life.
Zhu Ting, the former core of the Chinese women's volleyball team, admitted before the game that this was her last chance to participate in the Olympic Games.
Every effort she made was like a successful end to her career.
And Diao Linyu's name also appeared on the retirement and resettlement list of the Jiangsu women's volleyball team early, and her retirement seems to be a foregone conclusion.
Zhang Changning also has retirement arrangements, and her every appearance is particularly precious.
In addition, Ding Xia is a veteran this time, and Yuan Xinyue, Gong Xiangyu and others are also thinking about their future.
Their persistence is the inheritance of the spirit of the women's volleyball team and an encouragement to the young players.
Young players are also making their mark.
Young players such as Wu Mengjie, Miao Yiwen, and Wang Yizhu, although they are still inexperienced, have shown good potential in the game.
They dare to fight and inject new vitality into the team.
And players such as Xu Xiaoting and Ni Feifei, although their performance is not amazing, they are also working silently, looking forward to becoming the backbone of the team in the future.
Fourth, Li Yingying's tenacity and unfinished ambition
Li Yingying, this name has become an indispensable part of the Chinese women's volleyball team in recent years.
She has had too much expectation and pressure to qualify for the Tokyo Olympics, and Paris should have been the best stage for her to prove herself.
History is always full of regrets and uncertainties.
Despite Lee's best on the court, and every smash contained a desire to win, the team's overall performance and the strong play of the opponent made the battle extremely difficult.
The result of stopping in the semi-finals is undoubtedly a heavy blow to her.
After the game, when asked about the future, Li Yingying's eyes flashed with a trace of imperceptible fatigue and confusion, and she said softly: "There may not be a next one." ”
This sentence, simple but heavy, reveals her infinite love for volleyball and helplessness in the face of reality.
Fifth, the farewell of the times and the prospect of the future
With the end of the Chinese women's volleyball team's journey in the Paris Olympics, an era seems to be quietly ending.
Some people lamented that the Chinese women's volleyball team was sorry for outstanding players like Li Yingying, thinking that they could have gone further.
But more people have seen the inheritance and continuation of the spirit of the women's volleyball team in the alternation of the old and the new.
This game is not only a farewell to the past, but also an expectation for the future.
In the face of the upcoming large-scale blood exchange, the Chinese women's volleyball team needs to do more than just find a new leader, but more importantly, maintain that indomitable fighting spirit and spirit of unity and cooperation.
Only in this way can they continue to write a glorious chapter for the Chinese women's volleyball team in the future international arena.
Of course, we should also give more understanding and support to these girls.
They are the pride of the country and the heroes of the nation.
No matter what path they choose in the future, we should send them our most sincere blessings.
Because, under the illumination of the spirit of the women's volleyball team, they will always be the brightest stars in our hearts.
VI. Conclusion
Every game of the Chinese women's volleyball team is a baptism of the soul and a spiritual sublimation.
In the Paris Olympics, although they did not make it to the end, their desire for victory, their calmness in defeat, their support for their teammates, and their persistence in their dreams will become eternal memories in our hearts.
Let us look forward to the future of the Chinese women's volleyball team, and believe that in the coming days, they will be able to shine again and write a more brilliant chapter for China's sports industry.
