On August 15, 2008, the women's volleyball group match of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games continued in the Capital Gymnasium. The China women's volleyball team led by head coach Chen Zhonghe is facing the American team coached by Lang Ping, which is the eighth "peace war". This is also a crucial qualifying battle. Whoever wins will advance to the semi-finals.
Since Lang Ping became the head coach of the US women's volleyball team, this match between China and the US women's volleyball team has been dubbed as "a war of peace". Before the Beijing Olympic Games, the Chinese and American women's volleyball teams had already met seven times, and the China women's volleyball team had an absolute advantage with 5 wins and 2 losses.
