On June 29, 2024, the semi-finals of the U18 Women's Basketball Asian Cup began today, with Japan taking on Australia and China against South Korea.
The Chinese team played at 7 o'clock tonight, and as the host, they went all out to compete for the championship.
CCTV5 Sports Channel did not broadcast the match live, but broadcast the video of the European Football Cup.
The South Korean team plays similar to the Japanese team, mainly running and bombing, the players are generally shorter, and the three-point shooting advantage is eye-catching, and in the semi-final play-offs last night, Lee Min-gi made 12 of 25 three-point shots.
The Chinese team has a talented girl Zhang Ziyu, who averaged 33 points and 10 rebounds per game in three group games, and has a strong dominance under the basket.
The Chinese women's basketball team has defeated South Korea in the World Cup before, and this time it has a forward combination such as Zhang Ziyue and guards such as Wang Jiaxin.
However, the warm-up game in the early morning was defeated by Belgium, and the performance of the back line was not good, and the Chinese team in the semifinals tonight needs to learn a lesson, base itself on defense, and play a good match between the inside and outside.
In June 2024, the U18 Women's Basketball Asia Cup was held in Shenzhen, and this basketball feast attracted 16 teams to participate, they were divided into two levels, A and B, with 8 teams competing in each.
Among them, the A-level team is stronger, and our Chinese team is showing its style in the A-level.
In the group of 8 teams in Group A, China is in Group B with Japan, Indonesia, and New Zealand, while Australia, Chinese Taipei, South Korea, and Malaysia are in Group A.
The group stage is a single round-robin format, with the top team winners advancing directly to the semi-finals, and the second and third teams competing to qualify for the semi-finals, with the top four teams advancing to the 2025 FIBA U19 Women's Basketball World Cup.
The Chinese team performed extremely well in the group stage, making great progress all the way, winning three consecutive victories and successfully advancing to the semi-finals as the group leader.
In the first game, the Chinese team defeated Indonesia by a huge margin of 109 to 50, showing strong dominance; defeated New Zealand 90-68 in the second game, and played steadily; A 97-81 victory over Japan in the final game brought the group stage to a successful conclusion.
On the other hand, Australia also won all three games, beating Malaysia 124-38 in the first group game, South Korea 85-52 in the second game, and Chinese Taipei 90-67 in the final game.
Looking at the other teams, in Group A, South Korea is second with 2 wins and 1 loss, Chinese Taipei is third with 1 win and 2 losses, and Malaysia is at the bottom with three losses.
In Group B, Japan is second with 2 wins and 1 loss, New Zealand is third with 1 win and 2 losses, and Indonesia has no choice but to relegate to Division B after losing all three games.
On 28 June, the two semi-final play-offs were intensely staged.
South Korea defeated New Zealand 86-66 and Japan beat Chinese Taipei 76-70.
At this point, the semifinals of the U18 Women's Basketball Asian Cup have been released, and the semi-final situation is determined to be China vs. South Korea and Australia vs. Japan.
And in the 7th-8th place relegation match, Malaysia narrowly defeated Indonesia 67-66 in extra time and succeeded in relegation.
It is worth mentioning that Zhang Ziyu, a 17-year-old player of the Chinese team, is 2.24 meters tall, and she has contributed an average of 33 points per game in the past three group games, and has performed well at both offensive and defensive ends, becoming the core strength of the Chinese women's basketball team U18.

Japan and Australia were the first to engage in a fierce battle.
The much-watched match between the Chinese team and the South Korean team kicked off at 7 o'clock that night.
Regrettably, CCTV5 Sports did not broadcast the crucial matchup live, but instead relayed the footage of the European Football Championship, which fans could only watch through other channels.
South Korea's style of play is similar to Japan's, with players generally not tall, but most of them can shoot three-pointers, and in last night's semifinal play-offs, South Korea beat New Zealand 86-66, and the team's core Lee Min Ji performed eye-catching.
And our Chinese team is not weak, there is a 17-year-old talented girl Zhang Ziyu, who performed well in three group games, averaging 33 points and 10 rebounds per game, and shooting 88% from the field.
In addition, the Chinese team also has a forward combination of Zhang Ziyue, Xu Peilin and Li Kaiwei, as well as a defensive combination of Wang Jiaxin, Xu Fengwei and Zheng Xinru.
Looking back at the World Cup 2 years ago, the Chinese team defeated the South Korean team.
But in the women's basketball warm-up game in the early hours of this morning, China lost to the Belgian women's basketball team 63-78, and the team's guard line performed poorly.
In tonight's women's basketball semifinals, the Chinese team must learn a lesson, base themselves on defense, and play a good role in the internal and external cooperation, I believe that the girls will be able to fight bravely, show the style of the Chinese women's basketball team, and fight for honor.
Let's cheer for the Chinese women's basketball team and look forward to their wonderful performance.
The whistle of the game is about to blow, and the girls of the Chinese team are making final warm-up preparations on the sidelines.
Their eyes were determined and full of desire for victory.
Zhang Ziyu moved his tall body, like an unshakable fortress;
The forward combination of Zhang Ziyue, Xu Peilin and Li Kaiwei encouraged each other and was full of confidence;
Defenders Wang Jiaxin, Xu Fengwei and Zheng Xinru were dribbling the ball quickly, looking for a sense of the ball.
In the stands, fans waved the national flag in their hands and shouted loudly to cheer for the Chinese team.
Their enthusiasm is like a burning flame that wants to ignite the whole arena.
This game is not only a victory in sports competition, but also a victory in the spirit of unity, hard work and forge ahead.
It tells us that no matter how great the difficulties and challenges we face, as long as we unite and move forward bravely, there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome.
I also hope that this spirit can be passed on to everyone, who can persevere, pursue their dreams, and contribute to the prosperity and strength of the motherland in life, work, and study.
