The Chinese women's volleyball team is about to compete in the Paris Olympics. Regarding the goal, Gong Xiangyu, Yuan Xinyue and Li Yingying all mentioned that they want to stand on the podium, so what is the difficulty for the team to achieve the goal? The first is to overcome the slow heat, the second is to pass the round at two points as soon as possible, and the third is to ensure that the first pass gives full play to the advantages of the secondary attack.
According to the schedule, the first opponent of the Chinese team in the group stage is the defending champion United States. Due to the change of the Olympic format, it has changed from 2 teams to 3 teams, which also makes it more difficult for the Chinese women's volleyball team to qualify for the group, and they must go all out in every game. The Chinese team has always been "slow to heat up", if the first game is lost to the United States, then it will increase the difficulty of the next two games, and must win France and Serbia to ensure the initiative to advance.
In this case, the Chinese women's volleyball team must overcome the bad problem of slow heating, and hit the United States by surprise as soon as it comes up. The Chinese women's volleyball team has played against the main American team this cycle, so there is no problem of not adapting to the opponent's playing style. On the contrary, the American women's volleyball team has no actual experience with the Chinese women's volleyball team after the return of Zhu Ting and Zhang Changning, and they may not be suitable for our style of play.
Judging from the matches of the World League, the World Championships and the Olympic Championships, the Chinese women's volleyball team is extremely easy to get stuck in the two-point attack round, and it is precisely because of the serious card round that the final loss result. In other words, if the Chinese team wants to win, it needs to solve the problem of the card round, and if it passes the round as soon as possible, it will hope to win the game and even stand on the Olympic podium, otherwise it will miss the medal.
Cai Bin's commonly used tactic to solve the card wheel is to exchange two points for three points, that is, to replace Gong Xiangyu and Diao Linyu with Ding Xia and Zheng Yixin, so as to achieve the effect of turning a two-point attack into a three-point attack. According to the current situation, Ding Xia and Zheng Yixin's tacit understanding is not enough, and the requirements for a pass are too high, I hope that in the later training, the two can increase some tacit understanding, and Zheng Yixin can also enrich their offensive means.
Judging from the data of the 24 World League, the offensive success rate of the two secondary attacks of the Chinese women's volleyball team ranks in the forefront, so the setter should give full play to this advantage as much as possible, open the way with the secondary attack, and then actively mobilize the side attack when the secondary attack is opened, and finally form a mutual containment. But if the secondary attack wants to open, the team needs to have a good pass as a guarantee. How to ensure a good pass has become a difficult point for the team.
According to the current one-pass system, the small main attack and the free man need to receive 6 rounds, and the receiving and big main attack only participate in one pass in the back row, which puts forward higher requirements for the small main attack and the free man. If the World League is used as the standard, the combination of Zhang Changning and Li Yingying is more reasonable, in the face of Turkey's strong serve, Zhang Changning withstood the chase, and the arc of the pass is just right, Diao Linyu is easy to organize a fast attack.
As long as the Chinese women's volleyball team solves these three problems, it is still very promising to stand on the Olympic podium. Now the level of all teams in the international volleyball world is about the same, and the victory or defeat is mainly based on the on-the-spot performance and the coach's deployment.
