Li Yingying was exhausted, but the China women's volleyball team lost to the Canadian team.

No one would have thought that the China women's volleyball team had lost to the Canadian women's volleyball team, at least not China fans and most media. On the evening of September 20th, 2023, Beijing time, in the fourth round of Group A of the Paris Olympic Women's Volleyball Qualifying Tournament, China women's volleyball team struggled for five games, losing 2-3 to Canadian women's volleyball team, and missed four consecutive victories. In this game, China scored 30 points to become the scoring champion, and the defensive end also performed well. Unfortunately, "riding alone can't save the savior." Serbian women's volleyball team won the first place in Group A in four consecutive victories.

China and Canadian teams have played eight times in official matches before, and China has the upper hand with 7 wins/KLOC-0 losses. In the first three games, China won without losing a game, while the Canadian team was 1, 2-0.

China's Analysis of Canadian Games

At the beginning of the game, the Canadian team's attack was quite impactful, relying on the final key of the game to score the next city first. In the second game, after adjustment, China strengthened its attack, especially blocking, which limited its opponents and pulled back a game. In the crucial third game, Canada's offensive continued and the score led all the way. At the end of the game, China was replaced by Ding Xia and Zhong Hui, trying to catch up with the score, but still lost a game.

In the fourth game, China fought back tenaciously and dragged the game into the deciding game. In the fifth game, China started with a small climax of 6-/kloc-0-,but then the ball fluctuated and eventually lost.

Throughout the whole game, China made a mistake in passing the ball, which led to the ineffective execution of the tactical attack, and there was no fastball to play with Yuan's two vice-offenses. In the case of only storm adjustment, the Canadian team is Gray and Van Reich, while the China team has only a little Li Yingying. Especially when it was Li Yingying's turn in the back row, it was almost impossible for China to break through the blockade of the other team.

After Wu was replaced in the third game, the fourth position was strong, but the defense was relatively weak and lacked international competition experience.

On the positive side, losing is not a bad thing. China women's volleyball team should be more careful when preparing for the next match. As head coach Cai Bin said, "There are no weak teams in Olympic qualifiers. China women's volleyball team needs to take every opponent seriously in order to achieve good results. "
