Chapter 191: Thrilling Reversal (Part II)
In many cases, competitive sports are not just about who is more proficient in the mastery of the craft, but on the contrary, the competition between the two sides begins to shift from the visible physical level to the abstract spiritual level.
The biological nature of human beings determines that most of the emotional changes of human beings are actually controlled by hormones, but the reason why human beings are the spirits of all things is because great people can restrain the influence of their own hormones on themselves.
In the face of death, they can face it calmly; In the face of money, they can get along with each other calmly; In the face of temptation, they can sit still, in short, these great people in the eyes of ordinary people are great because they can overcome their own desires, or overcome themselves.
The same is true of competitive sports, where great athletes are great precisely because they have overcome the ego and the adaptive adjustment of their own physiological attributes.
In peacetime, the stars of competitive sports are the heroes who satisfy the inner fantasies of mankind.
The first round of the Asian Champions Cup between the Yangtze River women's volleyball team and the Lin Bank women's volleyball team entered the final fifth game, and after a fifteen-point battle, the winner will enter the next round with the promotion bonus, while the loser will return to the nest with his bleeding heart to lick his wounds.
In contrast, the average age of the Yangtze River women's volleyball team is only 23.4 years old, and it does seem very young, young often means inexperience, they have great emotional fluctuations, they can play a momentum attack when they are good, and they can be a mess and incorrigible when they are bad, but what Wang Lei is doing now is to try to avoid such fluctuations.
After entering the fifth game, the girls of the Yangtze River women's volleyball team did not play very smoothly at the beginning, Zhou Lingling's second pass in front of the net was slightly dull and simple, and the first pass Gu Lina also appeared near tennis from time to time.
However, fortunately, the other players played normally, and the opponent Lin's Bank women's volleyball team also encountered a little problem, so the two sides were evenly matched at the beginning of the fifth game.
Although the Lin's Bank women's volleyball team had no foreign aid restrictions in the fifth game, their back-row defensive core, Kim Mei-hee, a free man from Goryeo, was unexpectedly injured and went off, which led to a lot of problems in the Lin's Bank women's volleyball team.
In the women's volleyball game, due to physical limitations, as long as a pass is not in place, it is difficult to adjust the second setter, and those who can adjust the unfavorable pass to the right fit for their teammates are all the top people in the world women's volleyball team.
The scores of the two sides can be said to be alternately leading in the fifth game, and both sides have unsmooth places, but also have their own shining points.
On the Yangtze River women's volleyball team, Xu Yunxin played a good state that she had not shown in the past in the fifth game, and she played very well in several strong attacks in the fourth position, and Ma Dongmei taught Xu Yunxin some things that she thoroughly showed today.
The women's volleyball team of Lin's Bank still relies on their three Eastern European foreign aides to have a very big advantage in blocking the net, and these three foreign aides are all over 27 years old, which is very experienced.
When the score reached 8 draws, Wang Lei called the first timeout.
In the fifth game, the physical consumption of the players of the two teams has been very large, and many players have declined because of physical problems, but after nearly half a month of exercise, the physical fitness of the Yangtze River women's volleyball team is better than that of the opponent, after all, they have been doing this.
During the pause, Wang Lei emphasized his requirements to his players, the team can not play a fixed high or fast style of play, but should combine the two styles of play, Zhou Lingling must give up her previous habits and readapt to the changes of the team's fairy.
In addition to making requirements for the players who have already played, Wang Lei also asked Ma Dongmei to play in the last time, but after Ma Dongmei plays, she will move in the back row, not in the front row, and receive a pass, and at the same time increase the firepower of the back row attack.
Before Ma Dongmei's injury, the Yangtze River women's volleyball team can almost be said to be Ma Dongmei's own player, she not only has to score as the main attacker, but also rotate to the back row to play a pass to play the back row attack, and sometimes even appear as the team's second setter, during this time, although Ma Dongmei paid the price of serious injury, but at the same time practiced an all-round ability.
Although Ma Dongmei's pass is not as stable as some people because of her height, compared to the young libero Gu Lina, Ma Dongmei is experienced enough and has enough understanding of this kind of tiebreaker scene.
After the pause, the Yangtze River women's volleyball team can be said to have undergone immediate changes, the front row is better, Zhou Lingling's change is not so fast, but it will be different immediately after the addition of Ma Dongmei in the back row.
Zhou Lingling immediately passed the ball in the back row after Ma Dongmei came on the field, although Ma Dongmei is far from returning to the best condition, but her control of the ball is better than everyone on the field, although her back row attack did not have much force, but the landing points are the opponent's defense of the hole area.
Ma Dongmei's two consecutive back-row attacks helped the Yangtze River women's volleyball team reach ten points first, and the Lin's Bank women's volleyball team had to call out the last timeout.
However, their pause did not have the desired effect, after Ma Dongmei's back-row attack had an effect, setter Zhou Lingling suddenly changed her style of play as if she had opened her mind, and made two double-back flights with Liao Qing and Xu Yunxin.
The offense of the Lin's bank women's volleyball team has never been able to play its due effect due to the instability of the first pass, and the domestic players who substitute Kim Mei-hee are a lot worse than Kim Mei-hee in terms of strength, and they can't make up for the huge gap at all.
After establishing a four-point advantage, the mentality of the girls of the Yangtze River women's volleyball team has also changed, and they no longer worry about what to do if they lose, after all, now anyone with a discerning eye can see the decline of the opponent.
When the Lin Bank women's volleyball team played the last few balls, the players' physical fitness problems, and even the three Eastern European players had a decline in form, but there was no way to do it, who made them a subtropical team, and Alimutu was not high but also eight or nine hundred meters above sea level.
In the end, relying on the good performance of the fifth game, the Yangtze River women's volleyball team advanced thrillingly with a total score of 3-2 in the first round of their Asian Champions Cup.
