In the second round of the group stage of the Women's Volleyball Team at the Tokyo Olympic Games, the Chinese team lost 0-3 to the United States team and missed the first victory of the Olympic Games. The last game against Turkey is a complete defeat, three sets added up to 49 points, this time in the face of the more powerful United States to take 70 points also lost, although from the process of the game Lang Ping's adjustment still played some effect, but the Chinese women's volleyball team has not much room to retreat.
Zhu Ting's father, Zhu Anliang, said after the Chinese women's volleyball team lost to Turkey that he felt that the Chinese women's volleyball team could still qualify: "The remaining 4 teams will win the team again!" "The women's volleyball Olympic group stage needs to play 5 rounds, and now the Chinese women's volleyball team has lost 2 consecutive rounds, which means that the remaining three games can not afford to lose, but can the Chinese women's volleyball team really break out a strong fighting force in the face of the strong Italy?
CCTV commentator Hong Gang comforted that when the last Rio Olympic Games, the strength of the Chinese women's volleyball team was not strong. Hong Gang's statement is obviously controversial, although the Chinese women's volleyball team in the Rio Olympic Games in the group stage was not good, but at that time we had Zhu Ting, Xu Yunli, Wei Qiuyue, Hui Ruoqi and Lin Li, who was in good shape, the personnel allocation of the Chinese women's volleyball team was very stable, and the attack and defense were balanced. And this Olympic Games, Zhu Ting is trapped by a wrist injury can only play 60% of the strength, and no one can give the captain strong support, free man Wang Mengjie is constantly dragging down the team, if it is replaced by Lin Li, perhaps the Chinese women's volleyball team will not play so ugly.
Lang Ping tried everything he could, but helplessly in the recent international competition, the Chinese women's volleyball team touched these strong teams either to hide their strength, or the women's volleyball team itself has not been effectively solved, especially in the use of free people, seriously dragging down the overall play of the Chinese women's volleyball team, paying a tragic price of many defeats, and then the Chinese women's volleyball team has reached the point where there is no way to retreat, and it is difficult for the group stage to qualify!
In the national table tennis arena, following the Chinese team's upset loss to Japan and the first gold in the mixed doubles, Ma Long encountered stubborn resistance from India's brother Achanta in the third round of men's singles. Malone lost the second set 8-11 in the first set with Achanta taking the lead; the next two sides were too entangled, and if it were not for Malone's mid-way recovery 13-11 to win the third set, I am afraid that there would be no 11-4, 11-4 in the fourth and fifth innings.
Although the 4-1 score alone is an easy victory, it is very thrilling from the perspective of the game process, and it still cannot hide the nervousness after the national table tennis lost the first gold. Of course, Ma Long's experience in the competition and the ability to adjust in the face of the crisis are what other players need to learn, and Liu Guoliang and Qin Zhijian and others must find a way to cheer up the disciples!
