A few days ago, the Olympic Council of Asia announced the women's volleyball division of this year's Asian Games in Jakarta, with * * *1/teams participating. China is in Group B with defending champion Korean team, China Taipei team, Kazakstan team, Vietnamese team and Indian team.
Previously, the Olympic Council of Asia announced the competition system, which was set according to 12 teams, that is to say, six teams in each group first went through the group singles cycle, and then the top four in each group entered the second stage of the semi-finals. But unexpectedly, the number of participating teams did not reach 12, and only 1 1 teams signed up. This raises a question, that is, the number of teams is not equal in the case of two groups.
According to the final draw, China's team has six teams, while Group A has only five teams ... That is to say, China's women's volleyball team in Group B will play one more game than Group A, the two Japanese and Thai champions. This puts greater demands on China's physical quality.
It is worth mentioning that China and South Korea are in the same group. In the previous national league, China was unexpectedly swept by South Korea. This time, the South Korean women's volleyball team sent an all-main lineup led by Kim Nguyen Kyung. Can China achieve revenge? We will wait and see.
