As the third week of the World Women's Volleyball League comes to an end, the eight teams currently entering the finals have gradually become clearer. Seven teams have already confirmed their promotion, namely the United States, Brazil, Japan, Italy, China, Turkey and Serbia , and Chinese women's volleyball team also completed the goal of reaching the finals set by Cai Bin before the game one round ahead of schedule.
Looking at the 11 games that have ended in the Chinese women's volleyball team, Li Yingying is undoubtedly the core of the Chinese team's offense. She has scored 209 points, ranking second among all players. But you must know that Li Yingying has started all the past 11 games and only rested for one game. The increasing number of mistakes made by Li Yingying in recent games is enough to show that she has a certain degree of fatigue. Therefore, in the Chinese women's volleyball team In the last game against the South Korean team, which had 11 losses in 11 games, Li Yingying could completely rest.
In fact, after the Chinese women's volleyball team came to Bulgaria, the players' condition was obviously better than that in the Philippines in the second week, especially the secondary attackers Yuan Xinyue and Wang Yuanyuan . Their condition recovered very quickly. In fact, there is no doubt about the ability of the two. Their poor performance in previous games may be due to certain changes in mentality, or due to certain physical injuries. After coming to the Bulgaria station, the two of them have undergone obvious changes both physically and mentally. 's back flying smash is no longer weak, Wang Yuanyuan is clean and neat, and Yuan Xinyue seeks angles. This is very good. Phenomenon. As for , you must know that the reason why Wang Yuanyuan and Yuan Xinyue have outstanding performances is that one person also played a very important role, and that is the setter Diao Linyu who was entrusted with the important task by Cai Bin.
In fact, in the first week of this World League, Cai Bin started with Diao Linyu in the second pass position, and achieved very good results, ushering in three consecutive victories at the start. In the second week of the Philippine station, Diao Linyu missed 4 games due to physical reasons, so veteran Dingxia returned to the starting position. The team also lost to the United States and Japan in succession. Although the team The loss had little to do with Ding Xia, but this lineup was not what Cai Bin had in mind.
So after the start of the third week of Bulgaria, Diao Linyu recovered and returned to the team, and Cai Bin arranged him to start again, and Diao Linyu did not disappoint Cai Bin, making progress in every game. In the game against the Dominican Republic on the evening of July 1, Diao Linyu's performance was comprehensive. Not only did he do a good job in connecting the team, but his cooperation with deputy attacker Wang Yuanyuan was even more superb. At the same time, in terms of blocking, Diao Linyu, who is the setter, actually scored 3 points. You must know that Yuan Xinyue, who is the secondary attacker, only scored 1 point in blocking. He blocked 15 times, scored once and made 10 mistakes. There is really no harm without comparison. .
In addition, Diao Linyu also did a good job in defense. 5 of 7 defenses were effective. The important thing is 0 turnovers. The defensive kicking rate is as high as 71.4% , which is quite high. You must know that as a free agent Human Wang Weiyi defended a total of 8 times and 4 were effective, and the defensive kick-off rate was only 50%. This comparison is enough to show that Diao Linyu also did an excellent job on the defensive end. At the same time, Diao Linyu made a total of 64 passes, 64 of which were completed with zero mistakes. The passing rate was as high as 100%. , this performance is indeed good enough for a setter.
In a volleyball match, a good setter plays a huge role in the team. In the history of the Chinese women's volleyball team, the most famous setter is the captain who helped the Chinese women's volleyball team win the 2004 Athens Olympics championship. Feng Kun , Lang Ping once used "whoever wins Feng Kun wins the world" to speak highly of Feng Kun's great role. Therefore, as a setter, Cai Bin deeply understands the important role of a good setter for the team, and changes to a team must start with the setter. Judging from the current situation, Diao Linyu, whom Cai Bin has worked hard to train, is beginning to show results, and Cai Bin's nickname of "Little Zhuge" is indeed well-deserved.
In fact, Diao Linyu also has shortcomings, that is, his cooperation with No. 4 Li Yingying is not very good, and there is still a certain gap with Ding Xia. However, after all, Diao Linyu has made great progress, and the details still need to be worked on later. Grind. I hope the Chinese women's volleyball team can bring more surprises to the outside world in subsequent games!
