(sabasports report) The Chinese women’s volleyball team beat the South Korean team 3-0 in the second Group E qualifying match of the Asian Games for their third straight win. In the game, the Chinese team was once affected by the South Korean team, but the whole team actively adjusted to win. Coach CAI Bin said: “Any difficulties will not affect our determination to push forward.”
In this match, the starting lineup of China team is Wang Yunlu, Li Yingying, Gong Xiangyu, Yuan Xinyue, Wang Yuanyuan, setter Ding Xia, free agent Wang Mengjie. The Chinese team quickly entered the state and easily won the first set 21-12. The Korean team strengthened the change of serve in the second set, causing the Chinese team to fluctuate in the first serve, and at one point fell behind 10-14. In the passive moment, coach CAI Bin sent young Wu Mengjie to replace Wang Yunlun in the main attack position, and replaced Zhong Hui to break up the opponent’s serve, and China tied the score. At the end of the game, Wu Mengjie scored on the fourth position, and Yuan Xinyue scored on the fast ball, 25-21, and China won another game. Although the Chinese team started behind in the third game, it quickly regained the initiative through its own adjustment, and won the game 25-16, 3-0. “The game is like this, it can’t be smooth sailing, but regardless of the lead, behind, the team’s effort and spirit have been very good, and everyone has played very well.” CAI Bin expressed satisfaction with his players’ performance.
In the Paris Olympic qualifiers, opponents were mainly European and American, while the Asian Games faced Asian teams, and the Chinese women’s volleyball team was also adapting to the changes in the opponent’s playing style. The Olympic qualifiers and the Asian Games are seamless, and the fatigue of the Chinese women’s volleyball girls is inevitable. “We will not talk much about difficulties, any difficulties we will find a way to overcome, we will fight as a team, stick together, overcome all difficulties, this is the most important thing.” CAI Bin stressed. From Ningbo to Hangzhou, the Chinese women’s volleyball team wants to play better. “I need to take the pressure off, focus on the game and get my mentality right.” “No matter what difficulties we encounter, the determination of the whole team to move forward will not change,” CAI said.
