After the match, Tianjin women’s volleyball coach Wang Baoquan believed that the team was influenced by the Fujian team in the second game: “The second game was mainly due to the poor quality of our block and defense, which it made it difficult to seize counter-attack opportunities and score.” The opponents coming down will get stronger and stronger, so the team should take the opportunity of a real fight to fix the formation, fix the status and prepare for the knockout stage. “Like the upcoming match against the Jiangsu team, the Jiangsu team is relatively well organized, and overall the strength is very strong, and it is a good exercise for the team to play against such a high-level team, and the mentality and players’ skills will be improved better”. In the second half of each game of this match, the Tianjin team will use Yang Yi instead of Wang Yizhu as the main forward, ensuring a good pass while strengthening the back row defense.
