Just as the Chinese women's volleyball players are actively fighting for the National Games, the organizing committee of the 2022 Women's Volleyball World Championships announced a 1-minute promotional video, announcing to the outside world that there is still one year to go before the women's volleyball world championship starts. Many famous stars appeared in this promotional film, among which Zhang Changning and Wang Mengjie appeared as representatives of the Chinese team.
The video excerpts the picture of Wang Mengjie struggling to save and the picture of Zhang Changning jumping high in front of the net and vigorously smashing. It is worth mentioning that Zhang Changning and Wang Mengjie are one of the few foreign players selected for the promotional film, and they are only 2 Asian players, and the rest of the players who appear are almost all from the host country, the Netherlands and Poland.
Although Zhang Changning and Wang Mengjie have a lot of controversy in China, and many fans deliberately smear the two for their beloved players, the two have joined forces to appear on the promotional video, which directly shows that their strength has been recognized by the International Volleyball Federation. In the new cycle, Zhang Changning and Wang Mengjie will be the mainstays of the Chinese women's volleyball team, and it is expected to lead the team to the 2022 World Championships and continue to compete for gold and silver for the team.
Zhang Changning suffered a lot of criticism during the Tokyo Olympic cycle, especially Li Yingying's fans have smeared her in various ways. In terms of comprehensive strength, although Zhang Changning is not as good as Li Yingying in terms of offensive ability, her first pass and defense are still much higher than Li Yingying. Coach Lang Ping's choice to use Zhang Changning as Zhu Ting's diagonal is also understandable, but some fans have always questioned that Li Yingying can replace Zhang Changning.
In the 2022 Women's Volleyball World Championship, due to Zhu Ting's temporary injury, the competitive relationship between the two will become a cooperative relationship, and they will play hand in hand. In the last two games of the Olympic Games, the combination of Zhang Changning and Li Yingying's main offensive line brought us a surprise, and also swept the Italian women's volleyball team. So we can look forward to the two players working together again at the 2022 World Championships.
Wang Mengjie was also one of the targets of deliberate smear by fans during the Tokyo Olympic cycle. Looking at the 3 free men of the current national team, Wang Mengjie is still temporarily ranked first, Lin Li is second, and Ni Feifan is third. Some people may say that Ni Feifan has surpassed Wang Mengjie, but as far as the performance of the National Games is concerned, Ni Feifan has not reached the invincibility of some fans, and her pass error rate is still high.
Defensively, Ni Feifan's starting rate is really good, but this is also related to the high level of jiangsu women's volleyball in the front row, Wang Chenyue, Gong Xiangyu and Zhang Changning are the top five regulars in the domestic net blocking list, if the airtight net, naturally reduces Ni Feifan's defensive pressure. In addition, the slam dunk power of domestic competitions is too light, in addition to the Henan women's volleyball free man level is slightly worse, the rest of the team's free man can also make Ni extraordinary defense.
At next year's World Championships, Wang Mengjie will still be the main force in the position of the free man of the Chinese women's volleyball team, and Ni Feifan will play as a substitute. If Ni Feifan wants to successfully succeed Wang Mengjie, he still needs to make more efforts in terms of first pass and physical fitness. In the 2022 World Championships, each team will alternate between the old and the new, and from the perspective of the new and old alternation of the Chinese women's volleyball team, we have completed. The second pass position is because Ding Xia will not retire, so she can represent the team. The main attack Li Yingying, the secondary attack Wang Yuanyuan and Yang Hanyu can be used, so the probability of the team winning the gold medal is still very large.
