About China Women's Volleyball Team and Italian Women's Volleyball Team

In 2002, China women's volleyball team was defeated by Italy, and in 2004, China women's volleyball team won the Olympic champion. Since 2005, the China team still can't find a way to deal with the Italians. At present, there are also popular sayings in the world, such as "China is like Cuba, Cuba is like Brazil, Basik is like Italy, and Italy is like China". The reason is that these new coaches in Italy attach great importance to the use of high-tech means and the grasp of details. Italian women's volleyball team not only holds high the China team, but also has its own unique features in marking people to block, serving to find someone and destroying a pass. Let's trace back to the classic victory of Italy against China women's volleyball team in 2002, and review the classic victory and the history of Sino-Italian confrontation after 2005.

Game 1: Italian women's volleyball team dominates the world

In 2002, China women's volleyball team and Italian team met in the semi-final. At that time, China women's volleyball team was on the rise, and the application of new techniques and new styles of play gradually matured. However, China women's volleyball team was severely criticized by foreign public opinion because of the "ball-letting incident", and China women's volleyball team was at an obvious psychological disadvantage. The Italian team's highly targeted mobile block made it difficult for China women's volleyball team to find a breakthrough in the fast break, and finally lost with 1-3. China's women's volleyball team, which was the most likely to win the championship, was eliminated, while the Italian team finally swept Yu Wei in China and won the world championship in 2002.

Game 2: bonita challenged China women's volleyball team to become the Olympic champion by luck.

In 2005, China women's volleyball team met the Italian team in the Swiss Classic. Although China just won the Athens Olympic Games the year before last, the Italian coach bonita (now the head coach of the Polish women's volleyball team, who helped Poland beat China 3-2 in the just-held Hong Kong Grand Prix) disrespected the China women's volleyball team and even threatened to beat China. China women's volleyball team was lucky to win the Olympic champion. Bonita really didn't break his word. Finally, after five hard games, China women's volleyball team had physical problems, and the lead of the two games was reversed. Finally, it was defeated by the Italian women's volleyball team 3-2.

Scene 3: An Italian storm hits the Great Wall on the Internet in China.

China Women's Volleyball Grand Prix in 2005 had hoped to take advantage of home court to get revenge. However, the onslaught of Italian Tony, Fiorin and Otto made the goal of China women's volleyball team useless, and the unfavorable blocking of that game also marked that China women's volleyball team was no longer the strongest blocking team in the world. The collapse of China's blocking system is reflected in various aspects, such as moving steps, blocking hands, mutual cooperation and rear row protection. In the end, all three sets lost with the same score of 22-25.

Game 4: Italy beat China women's volleyball team three times a year.

Shortly after the Hong Kong Women's Volleyball Grand Prix in 2005, China women's volleyball team met Italy in the final. However, China women's volleyball team failed to display its own characteristics in the series of small balls and the stability of one pass, and the overall rhythm was even slower than that of Italy. Italian team 16-25, 2 1-25, 22-25 humiliated China women's volleyball team again, which was their three-game winning streak against China in 2005. The Italian women's volleyball team also became the only strong team in the world that did not lose to the China women's volleyball team.

Game 5: China women's volleyball team narrowly won to save some face.

China and Italian women's volleyball team met again in the Swiss women's volleyball classic in 2006. This time, the Italian women's volleyball team did not leave the main lineup at all. The setter bianco, the receiver Tony and the assistant Barazza didn't go to Switzerland, while the China women's volleyball team vowed to find their lost confidence in each other. In the end, China women's volleyball team, who was more eager to win this game, narrowly won 3-2 in five games, with the match scores of 20-25, 25- 18, 23-25, 35-33, 15-9.

Game 6: The host Italian deliberately drew lots to touch China.

The final of the 2006 World Women's Volleyball Grand Prix was held in Italy, and the host Italian team did some tricks on the schedule. Of course, there is nothing wrong with this, just as the hosts of previous World Cup football matches can draw good tickets. This time, the Italian side arranged for the team to be in the same group as China. They are quite confident to beat the women's volleyball team in China. It can be said that the China team was assigned to their own group as a weak team. In the end, China women's volleyball team was really shaved by Italian teams 17-25, 17-25, 14-25.

Game 7: China has to admit the existence of "phobia"

In the 2007 Hong Kong World Women's Volleyball Grand Prix, the Italian team only had aguero, a former Cuban star who had just joined Italian nationality. Originally, people were more optimistic about the China women's volleyball team, but the Italian team finally staged a 3-2 reversal. Whether the girls want to admit that the Italian team is the nemesis of China women's volleyball team or not, the fact that they failed one after another is unavoidable. If China women's volleyball team wants to be brave after shame, it may as well admit the existence of "phobia" first, and then we can gradually improve it through hard training and competition, so as to overcome the stubborn disease.
