On June 29, 2024, the Chinese Volleyball Association announced the list of Chinese women's volleyball players participating in the Paris Olympics through its official website, with 12 athletes and 1 substitute athlete participating.
The list of 12 athletes is as follows:
Main attack: Zhu Ting, Li Yingying, Zhang Changning, Wu Mengjie
Secondary attack: Wang Yuanyuan, Yuan Xinyue, Gao Yi
Second setter: Diao Linyu, Ding Xia
Answering the second setter: Gong Xiangyu, Zheng Yixin
Free man: Wang Mengjie
One substitute is: Zhuang Yushan
As soon as the news came out, it quickly attracted great attention from netizens and rushed to the hot search.
At the Paris Olympics, the Chinese women's volleyball team was led by Zhu Ting, which concentrated the best domestic athletes. But there are also fans who believe that there are 3 athletes who should not participate. For their selection, netizens did not recognize. Who are these 3 athletes?
There was also an athlete who was selected, and there was a lot of controversy among the fans. And who is this athlete?
Netizens think that the 3 athletes who should not be selected are:
One is Ding Xia.
(Ding Xia)
Fans think she's too old to compete in the Paris Olympics.
Ding Xia was born on January 13, 1990 in Shijiazhuang City, Hebei Province, and has reached the age of 34.
Ding Xia is the main setter of the Chinese women's volleyball team in the two Olympic cycles of Rio and Tokyo. She passes the ball quickly, has a spicy style of play, and is good at organizing tactical attacks.
Ding Xia's defense is also very good, and she can also dunk twice. The Chinese women's volleyball team won the championship in the Rio Olympics, and Ding Xia was an important contributor.
However, during the Tokyo Olympic cycle, due to the impact of age and injuries, Ding Xia's form declined. In the group stage of the Tokyo Olympics, the Chinese women's volleyball team lost to Turkey, the United States, and Russia in a row, which has a certain relationship with Ding Xia's poor performance.

In February 2022, Cai Bin served as the coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team, and Ding Xia appeared in the squad. She participated in the 2022 Women's Volleyball World League and the 2022 Women's Volleyball World Championship, serving as Diao Linyu's substitute in the team.
In 2023, Ding Xia will temporarily leave the team due to injury and return to the team before the Hangzhou Asian Games.
In the 19th Hangzhou Asian Games in September 2023, Ding Xia won the championship with the team as a substitute setter.
In 2024, Ding Xia will go to Poland to play at the Polyice Chemical Women's Volleyball Club in Poland. During her stay in the United States, Ding Xia served as a substitute in the team and did not have many opportunities to play.
(Diao Linyu)
In the 2024 Women's Volleyball World League Macau Station, in a match with Italy, the main setter Diao Linyu played poorly, and Ding Xia came off the bench.
Due to age and injuries, Ding Xia does not move as fast on the court as before, and her passes of fastballs and high balls are not as accurate as before.
Ding Xia's defensive pace is not as flexible as before, and she can't defend the ball in her hand.
Hui Ruoqi clearly pointed out in the commentary: Ding Xia also used the previous way of passing, which is no longer suitable for the needs of the situation, and she must change the mode of passing in order to integrate into the team.
(Ding Xia and Hui Ruoqi)
In the finals of the Women's Volleyball World League, the Chinese women's volleyball team played against the Japanese team in the 1/4 finals, Ding Xia served as the main setter, she played from beginning to end, and was not replaced halfway.
Ding Xia plays with passion and works the court, but her passing accuracy, blocking, defense and other technical aspects are lacking compared with before.
After all, he is a 34-year-old veteran, and the age is there. Many fans questioned Ding Xia's trip to Paris and asked Cai Bin: Why don't you use a young setter?
(Ding Xia)
Some fans are even more pessimistic: Ding Xia participates in the Olympic Games, and the Chinese women's volleyball team has no hope!
Cai Bin chose Ding Xia to participate in the Olympic Games, mainly for stability. Ding Xia, as a substitute setter, usually plays when Diao Linyu plays poorly, or when two points are exchanged for three points.
Don't underestimate the substitutes, sometimes the substitutions can turn the tide, and if the substitutes don't work, it's a wasted spot.
The second is to substitute Zheng Yixin.
(Zheng Yixin)
Fans think she is not strong enough to take on the responsibility of being a substitute.
Zheng Yixin was born on May 6, 1995 in Zhangzhou, Fujian Province, and has reached the age of 29. She is 1.87 meters tall and was originally the deputy attack of the Chinese women's volleyball team, and was transformed into a receiver by Cai Bin.
In 2015, when Lang Ping was coaching, Zheng Yixin was selected for the national team and served as a deputy attacker. Because the team has Yuan Xinyue, Yan Ni, Xu Yunli, Wang Yuanyuan, Yang Hanyu and other secondary attackers, Zheng Yixin served as a substitute.
Zheng Yixin has not been able to gain a firm foothold in the team, and he loses every World Series.

In the Japan Women's Volleyball World Cup in September 2019, the Chinese women's volleyball team brought 14 players to participate in the competition, and Zheng Yixin was selected for the lineup.
During the whole game, Zheng Yixin served as a secondary offensive substitute, and there were not many opportunities to play, and finally won the Women's Volleyball World Cup with the team.
Zheng Yixin's skills in the secondary attack are relatively comprehensive, she can receive three rounds of one pass, the back row can defend, she is good at running and attacking, and she also has a certain strength in blocking the net.
But Zheng Yixin's shortcomings are also obvious: he lacks the strength to attack at the No. 2 position, and the power to smash the ball is insufficient.
(Zheng Yixin and Cai Bin)
In February 2022, Cai Bin served as the head coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team, and Zheng Yixin was selected for the national team. Due to Wang Yuanyuan's rapid growth, he and Yuan Xinyue have become the main auxiliary attackers in the team, and Zheng Yixin can only serve as a substitute.
Zheng Yixin participated in the 2022 Women's Volleyball World League, the 2022 Women's Volleyball World Championship, and the 2023 World League, and her performance was not eye-catching.
Due to the surplus of secondary offensive talents of the Chinese women's volleyball team, Yang Hanyu and II-VI have better congenital conditions than Zheng Yixin, and Zheng Yixin does not have many opportunities to perform in the team.
The Chinese women's volleyball team's receiving position is relatively weak, and Gong Xiangyu has never had a suitable substitute. In 2024, Cai Bin will transform Zheng Yixin into a receiver and serve as Gong Xiangyu's replacement.
(Zheng Yixin)
In the 2024 Women's Volleyball World League Macau Station, in the match with the Italian team, Zheng Yixin and Ding Xia came on as substitutes for two points for three points, but they did not play a corresponding role.
On June 20, 2024, the finals of the Women's Volleyball World League kicked off in Bangkok, Thailand, and Zheng Yixin traveled with the team. In the 1/4 life-and-death battle against the Japanese team, Zheng Yixin started the game, playing from beginning to end, with no substitutions in the middle.
In this game, Zheng Yixin's performance was not good: first, she lacked the strength to attack at a fixed point, and her strong attack in the No. 2 position was either blocked or defended, and it was difficult to score; The second is that she made many mistakes in the back row and had holes in her defense.
The third is Zheng Yixin's turn to be in the front row, and he can't kill the ball. The setter passed the ball to her several times, and she patted and hung to give her opponent the opportunity to attack. Zheng Yixin is good at running and attacking, but she is rarely seen in the game.
(Zheng Yixin)
After watching this game, some fans thought that Zheng Yixin's performance was "catastrophic", and the gap between him and Gong Xiangyu was too big and he should not participate in the Paris Olympics.
At that time, when Hui Ruoqi was commenting on the game, she clearly pointed out: Response is the shortcoming of the Chinese women's volleyball team.
Now, Zheng Yixin has been selected for the Paris Olympics squad as a substitute, and many fans do not agree.
The third is the secondary attack of high spirit.
(High-intention)
Fans believe that II-VI has wasted good resources and the gap with the main players is too big.
II-VI was born on July 22, 1998 in Zaozhuang, Shandong Province, and is not yet 26 years old.
II-VI is 1.94 meters tall, with a smash height of 3.27 meters and a blocking height of 3.17 meters, and its bounce ability is the best in the Chinese women's volleyball team.
In 2016, Lang Ping recruited II-VI into the national team and focused on cultivating her.
(II-VI and Yuan Xinyue)
At that time, II-VI competed with Yang Hanyu and Wang Yuanyuan for the position of substitute secondary attacker, but II-VI was the first to fall behind.
Now Wang Yuanyuan has become the main force of the Chinese women's volleyball team, and II-VI is still a substitute attacker, and rarely has the opportunity to play.
II-VI is good at attacking at the No. 3 position and rarely plays the No. 2 position. She either killed or couldn't block the net, or destructively blocked the net, and there were very few balls that could be effectively supported.
In the Lang Ping era, II-VI was not cultivated, and in the end she was abandoned by the national team.
(High-intention)
In February 2022, after Cai Bin served as the head coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team, II-VI was selected for the national team. II-VI participated in the 2022 Women's Volleyball World League, the 2022 Women's Volleyball World Championship, and the 2023 Women's Volleyball World League with the Chinese women's volleyball team, but there was no outstanding performance.
In the 2024 Women's Volleyball World League, II-VI has few opportunities to play, and fans don't know what her true strength is.
In the 2024 Women's Volleyball World League Finals, the Chinese women's volleyball team played a 1/4 life-and-death battle against the Japanese team.
In the whole game, II-VI's performance was mediocre: she moved slowly to block the net, could not keep up with the Japanese team's offensive speed, and had a large hole in the net.
(II-VI and Yuan Xinyue on the court)
II-VI's No. 2 position is slow to attack, lacks strength, and is not much of a threat.
In this game, Hui Ruoqi served as a guest commentator on CCTV and bluntly pointed out: II-VI's No. 2 offensive strength and speed are lacking.
In the battle with the Japanese team, the performance of the secondary attack Yang Hanyu was better than that of II-VI. After the game, many fans predicted that Yang Hanyu would replace II-VI to stay in the team, but the result was unexpected by fans.
(II-VI on the court)
II-VI has been in the national team for many years and has not played out, wasting such good personal conditions in vain.
With II-VI's current strength and performance, she won't be playing a big role at the Paris Olympics.
The Chinese women's volleyball team for the Paris Olympics, the controversial athlete is Zhang Changning.
Zhang Changning was born on November 6, 1995 in Changzhou, Jiangsu Province, and is 29 years old this year. She is 1.93 meters tall and is good at opening the net and attacking strongly.
(Zhang Changning)
Zhang Changning has comprehensive skills and can play both the main attack and the response. In the two Olympic cycles of Rio and Tokyo, Zhang Changning has always been the main force of the Chinese women's volleyball team, and often plays diagonally with Zhu Ting in the World Series.
Although her offensive strength is not as good as Zhu Ting, she has a good pass and excellent support in the back row.
After the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, Zhang Changning got married, underwent knee surgery, and has been recovering for treatment.
In February 2024, Zhang Changning officially returned after more than two years away from the national team. Due to the impact of age and injuries, coupled with a long absence from the field, Zhang Changning's competitive form is not good.
(Zhang Changning turned the tide in the Hong Kong station of the World League)
Even head coach Cai Bin doesn't know what Zhang Changning's state is? In the 2024 Women's Volleyball World League Hong Kong Station, Zhang Changning came off the bench in the first game against the Turkish team and became a key figure in turning the tide of the game.
In the Women's Volleyball World League Finals in June 2024, the Chinese women's volleyball team played against the Japanese team, and Zhang Changning served as the starting main attacker and played the whole game.
Judging from Zhang Changning's performance in the World League: her bounce ability is not as good as before, the height of the offense has decreased, and the smash is easy to be blocked.
But Zhang Changning's power to smash the ball is still very strong, and he has rich experience in the game. Her pass is good, and the back row guarantee link is better.
"Celebrities" believe that Zhang Changning is still qualified to serve as the substitute main attack of the Paris Olympics.
However, after the Chinese women's volleyball team was announced for the Paris Olympics, some fans were controversial about Zhang Changning's selection, believing that her guarantee link was not much stronger than Wang Yunrui.
There are also fans who are paranoid that Zhang Changning and Zhuang Yushan's positions should be reversed.

After the announcement of the women's volleyball Olympic list, many fans are not optimistic about the prospects of the Chinese women's volleyball team in the Paris Olympics. In particular, he was dissatisfied with the selection of Ding Xia, Zheng Yixin, and II-VI, and there was controversy over Zhang Changning's selection.
To be sure, this list was finalized by the coaching staff after much consideration. "Taste the celebrities" believes that fans should not question, but believe in the Chinese women's volleyball team and the players.
