Only 10 days away from the Tokyo Olympics, the 12-man roster of the Chinese women's volleyball team has long been announced, of which in the selection stage, Lang Ping's director revealed in an interview that he was very entangled. But the tangled part is all about Liu Xiaotong, Wang Yuanyuan and other substitutes, as well as the choice between the free man Wang Mengjie and Lin Li, for several major players, there will be no doubt, even if Yan Ni is 34 years old.
Speaking of which, the Chinese women's volleyball team is relatively rich in the position of the secondary attack, so why did Yan Ni get lang ping's guidance so much? One of the main reasons is that Yan Ni's ability to block the net, the champion of the whole team, on the world stage, is also very dominant, and friends who are familiar with Lang Ping's guidance know that she attaches great importance to the ability to block the net.
As early as 2013, when Lang Ping guided the second return to the Chinese women's volleyball team, he made many adjustments on the blocking net, bringing Xu Yunli, Yang Junjing, Qiao Ting, Zhang Xiaoya, Yuan Xinyue, Yan Ni, Wang Ning and other players into the national team to enhance the ability in this regard. In the game, the success of the net is the key to keeping her own serve and the key point of scoring, and Yan Ni has been tested several times in the competition, and it is indeed the most trustworthy, offensive and defensive secondary attack at present.
Looking back at Yan Ni's performance in the national team, from 14 years to show strong talent and adaptability, the same year the Asian Championship won the MVP and the best secondary attack, of course, she was 27 years old at the time, can be in the national team from then on to stabilize the position, in addition to their own strength, but also thanks to Lang Ping's guidance of the insight, 2015 World Cup and 2016 Olympic Games, Yan Ni with the team to win the championship, so that her career has been very brilliant.
From this point of view, Yan Ni is 34 years old and still insists on participating in the Olympic Games, in addition to dreams, there will also be gratitude for Lang Ping's guidance. For this Olympic Games, not only yan ni's last session, but also the last session of Lang Ping's guidance, lang director has been 61 years old, the whole career, when the player is very good, when the coach has been full of honors, indeed to the time of retirement. And in the last Olympic Games she is about to retire, I believe that the girls have the idea of helping her draw a perfect end.
Of course, in addition to the fans' recognition of Yan Ni, her teammates also gave a very high evaluation, you can see the response of Gong Xiangyu and Yuan Xinyue. When talking about Yan Ni, when the host asked about Yan Ni's ability to block the net, Gong Xiangyu replied: "Of course, does Sister Ni's net still need to be said?" She will give us a strong sense of security when she is in the front row, because she is moving all over, her body balance is very good, and she will communicate with me in advance about the idea of blocking the net, so that we will form a tacit understanding during the game. It can be seen that Yan Ni's influence on the team is not only reflected in her excellent ability to block the net, but also she is very concerned about the feelings of her teammates, which is why she can maintain such a good competitive state after she is older.
In addition, Yuan Xinyue, who is also currently playing for the national team, commented when talking about Yan Ni: "(Yan Ni) is the Great Wall of the Chinese women's volleyball team, and the attacker who can be targeted by Ni Jie basically has no hope of fighting." "The evaluation is very high, in fact, it can be seen that Yan Ni really played very stable." In the end, Yuan Xinyue also expressed his wish, hoping that in the Tokyo Olympic Games, he could form a good match with Yan Ni and Wang Yuanyuan to support the team's secondary offensive position.
Finally, for the Chinese women's volleyball team, it is a blessing to have such a stable player as Yan Ni, but it has also reacted from the side, and the Chinese women's volleyball team has also had some fault problems, especially from this year's World Women's Volleyball League, the play of substitutes has made many people dissatisfied. It is hoped that at the Tokyo Olympic Games, the Chinese women's volleyball team can have a good play, so as to inspire more young players to work hard, so that the future of the Chinese women's volleyball team has always maintained a top position.
