In the third round of the women's basketball group stage at the Paris Olympics, the situation became more intense, and the fortunes of several teams ushered in a major turning point.
In the final round of the women's basketball group stage at the Paris Olympics, the performance of the Japan women's basketball team was indeed a surprise.
They ended the tournament with a 0-3 record in the group stage with a bumper defeat, a result that caught them off guard.
Especially in the match against Belgium, Japan's performance was almost bright, and the whole game looked very sluggish.
Belgium defeated Japan 85-58 and sent them directly out of the knockout round.
Japan's performance was in stark contrast to the silver medal finish at the last Olympics, and it seems that they really failed to find rhythm and form this time.
Some netizens couldn't help but complain after seeing the performance of the Japan team: "I can still win a silver medal in the last Olympics, but this time it collapsed directly, which is too disappointing."
Another netizen ridiculed: "Is the Japan women's basketball team practicing 'losing skills'?" This result is also too miserable, I really don't know what happened to them. ”
At the same time, the performance of the Nigerian women's basketball team has been eye-catching.
In the contest with Canada, the two teams bit very tightly in the first half, and neither team was able to open the gap.
But after entering the second half, Canada suddenly collapsed, scoring only five points in the third quarter, and Nigeria seized the opportunity to pull the score away and eventually won the game 79-70.
Such a victory allowed Nigeria to qualify for the knockout rounds, while Canada ended the group stage with three consecutive defeats.
Canada fans were also clearly unhappy with the team's performance, with one commenting: "This game is a classic case of collapse, 5 points in the third quarter, it's really chilling." ”
The match between France and Australia was quite intense.
In the first half, the two teams played very closely, and the battle was tied at 34.
In the second half, Australia's McGann was in hot form, hitting consecutive three-pointers to lead the team to a small climax.
By the end of the third quarter, Australia had a nine-point lead over France.
France struggled to chase the points in the final quarter, but were unable to close the gap, and in the end, Australia won the game 79-72 and successfully advanced to the knockout round.
The Chinese women's basketball team was also eliminated from the competition.
Many fans were a little helpless about the performance of the Chinese team, and some people sighed on the Internet: "The Chinese women's basketball team really failed to control its fate this time, and seeing Australia win, our hopes were completely shattered." ”
The performance of the Chinese women's basketball team in this group stage is indeed disappointing.
They won just one game, lost two, failed to finish third in the group and ultimately failed to qualify.
The poor performance in the first two rounds, especially against Spain and Serbia, made the road to qualification very difficult for the Chinese team.
Although there was no miracle comeback in the last game, the overall performance was indeed disappointing.
One fan wrote on Weibo: "It's really a pity that this Paris Olympics has left us with no chance to lose the first two games, and the last one has not been able to save the situation." ”
As for the expectations of the Nigerian women's basketball team, this Olympics can be said to be a new adventure.
The Nigerian women's basketball team had a striking performance in the group stage, seizing their chances in crucial matches to advance to the knockout rounds.
Especially against Canada, their performance was very eye-catching, especially in the second half, which was almost perfect.
In that matchup against Canada, Nigeria were inseparable from their opponents in the first half, but they were impressed by their brilliant performances in the second half.
In the third quarter, Canada's scoring almost stalled to just five points, while Nigeria took advantage of the opportunity to gradually widen the gap.
Such a comeback not only shows Nigeria's quality, but also makes people look forward to their future matches.
Netizens also praised the performance of the Nigerian women's basketball team, with some commenting: "Nigeria's counterattack is really wonderful, their teamwork and defensive counterattack are really impressive." ”
Another netizen said excitedly after the game: "It's really exciting to see Nigeria play like this!" Hopefully they can continue to do so and continue to surprise in the knockout rounds. ”
In fact, the victory in this game is not only the glory of the Nigerian women's basketball team, but also makes fans have more expectations for their future.
A lot of people started talking about the opponents they might face in the next knockout rounds, as well as the tactical strategies they might adopt.
One basketball fan posted on social media: "The Nigerian women's basketball team is really strong in this game.
Hopefully they can continue to play like this, and they may face stronger opponents in the knockout rounds, so expect them to perform better. ”
In addition to the expectations of fans, experts have also spoken highly of the performance of the Nigerian women's basketball team in the knockout round.
The basketball commentator said: "The Nigerian women's basketball team has shown great strength and indomitable spirit this time, and their performance in key moments is amazing.
In the next competition, they may become dark horses and challenge higher goals. ”
Of course, there are also some fans who have put forward their own opinions on the path of the Nigerian women's basketball team to qualify.
Some netizens analyzed: "Nigeria's performance in the group stage is indeed strong, but the opponent in the knockout round will definitely be more difficult."
They need to stay in shape and be well prepared to go far in the knockout rounds. ”
The expectations for the Nigerian women's basketball team will mainly focus on whether they can continue to maintain this good form and whether they can achieve another good result in the knockout rounds.
Everyone hopes that they can continue to show excellent performances in the next matches and bring more surprises to the fans.
For many fans who support the Nigerian women's basketball team, their performance has exceeded expectations and has earned everyone's respect and affection regardless of the outcome of the next match.
With the group stage over, the quarter-finals have all been selected, including Spain, United States, France, Germany, Nigeria, Serbia, Belgium and Australia.
The competition in this Olympics is extremely fierce, especially the performance of the Japan women's basketball team is completely different from the previous one, and the exit of the Chinese women's basketball team is also expected.
The excitement of the whole tournament and the performance of each team make people see the improvement of the global women's basketball level and the fierce competition.
