[The Epoch Times, September 23, 2023](Comprehensive report by Epoch Times reporter Li Jun) On the evening of September 22, in the Paris Olympic Qualifying Tournament, the Chinese women’s volleyball team faced a crucial battle and ultimately lost to the Netherlands 2:3. After the Chinese women’s volleyball team suffered two consecutive defeats, it became slim to qualify for Paris.
In a total of 7 rounds of Olympic qualifying, the Chinese women’s volleyball team first defeated Ukraine, Mexico, and the Czech Republic in the first three rounds, and then lost to Canada 2:3 in the fourth round.
In this crucial match, the Chinese women’s volleyball team sent Diao Linyu, Gong Xiangyu, Li Yingying, Wang Yunfu, Yuan Xinyue, Wang Yuanyuan and Wang Mengjie as starters.
After this defeat, the Chinese women’s volleyball team fell to fourth place in the group. According to the rules, only the top two teams can qualify for direct passage to Paris.
In the last two games, the Chinese women’s volleyball team’s opponents were Dominica and Serbia. The two teams were very strong.
Because the qualifying match on the 22nd is crucial, there is a lot of attention. The final loss of the Chinese women’s volleyball team to the Dutch team was unacceptable to many fans. After the game, Chinese social networking sites were filled with voices of dissatisfaction with the women’s volleyball team. Although the Central Media of the Communist Party of China did not report the failure of the women’s volleyball team, the women’s volleyball team was still “sprayed” and became a hot search topic.
The Chinese men’s basketball team, which has also been complained by fans recently, in the first round of the 2023 Basketball World Cup held in Manila, Philippines last month, the Chinese men’s basketball team set the largest losing margin in this tournament with 42 points.
Except for taking the lead in the first 5 minutes, the Chinese men’s basketball team was in a passive position for the rest of the time. In the end, the Chinese men’s basketball team lost 63:105, losing to the Serbian team by 42 points.
