On July 27, China's women's soccer team lost to the Netherlands with a score of 2-8 in the Olympic Games, and was eliminated from the group stage with one draw and two losses.On August 2, China's women's volleyball team ended its journey to the Tokyo Olympics early with two wins and three losses.On August 4, China's women's basketball team lost to Serbia in the quarter-finals with a score of 70-77, and stopped at the Tokyo Olympics. As China's three major ball men's team group did not qualify for this year's Olympic Games main round, the Chinese delegation in soccer, volleyball and basketball events are not eligible for the Tokyo Olympic Games medals.
In the face of the sluggish performance of the "three big balls", the Chinese sports world began to reflect on how to arouse their own determination to rise, in response to the expectations of the fans. Although the strategy of naturalization of talent to a certain extent to make up for the lack of talent, but in the long run, "sports and education integration" is the solution. Although the relevant measures have been implemented, but to see the results will take time.
FOOTBALL: Can women's soccer get out of the shadow of 14 marquee players in '16?
The performance of the Chinese women's soccer team at the Tokyo Olympics was heartbreaking. Compared to the "0-8" defeat at the Athens Olympics 17 years ago and the "2-8" defeat at this year's Olympics, it's mind-boggling to see that on April 13th at the Suzhou Olympic Sports Center, after the 2nd round of the Olympic Qualifying Round play-offs, the Chinese women's soccer team caught the final train to the Tokyo Olympics. The last train. Despite being at a significant disadvantage, Wang Shuang scored twice in a critical moment to seal the win. In this year's women's soccer tournament against Zambia, Wang Frost is still a sight to behold, scoring four goals.
However, it is not practical to expect Wang Frost to "cover up a hundred ugliness" in the qualifying and main rounds one after another. Almost at the same time as the team's 5-goal defeat to Brazil in the first match, the official announcement of Tang Jiali's stay in the English Premier League came from China. Chinese players to stay in the program restarted, Shen Menglu, Tang Jiali and other three women's players have been implemented to stay in the ocean. An official statistic of the World Football Federation shows that the financial and other support obtained by Chinese women's soccer is in the leading position in the world. The scale and brand appeal of the domestic women's super league and women's first league are also among the best in the world. It seems that Chinese women's soccer does not lack support.
So what was the reason behind the Chinese women's soccer team's performance at this year's Olympics? After the team's exit, some pointed the finger at head coach Jia Xiuquan. Objectively speaking, Jia Xiuquan has worked hard for the team after taking over the Chinese women's soccer team and leading the team to third place in the Asian Cup, second place in the Asian Games, and advancement to the main round of the Tokyo Olympics.
Basketball: why men's basketball is all stars and no results
There is a saying in China's basketball world, "Look for women's basketball for results and men's basketball for stars." This time at the Tokyo Olympics, China's women's basketball team failed to enter the quarterfinals despite winning all the group stage matches. China's three-player women's basketball podium, undoubtedly the return of this program for many years of preparation and investment. However, men's basketball, whether five-player basketball or three-player basketball team, with the previous investment, expectations are far from, this situation is afraid that it is difficult to get effective improvement in the short term.
About China's men's basketball, these years presents a very unequal situation, CBA, whether professionalization, attention, reputation and other aspects of the rapid forward development, but at the same time the results of China's men's basketball team has plummeted. Two years ago, they are sitting on the host of the biggest favorable conditions, but in the World Cup halted, which is undoubtedly China's basketball most painful setback.
Direction: "Sports and education integration" is more "radical" than naturalization.
China's three major ball in the world's weak field of play in fact has long been not the Tokyo Olympics only topic, as early as the London Olympics before and after the State General Administration of Sports has put forward "to revitalize the three major ball from the beginning of the" said.
In fact, Chinese football and basketball administrators have realized the significance of truly integrating with the education sector. Three major ball sports in the talent development of "sports and education integration" has entered a closer than ever before.
"Sports and education integration" may now be able to find the fundamental solution to the three major ball stubborn, but want to really revive, at least two generations of hard work. "Long-term success" is undoubtedly the motto that China's three major balls need the most.
Three big balls to say goodbye to the field, the heart still has the Olympic dream
August 4, with the Chinese women's basketball team in the Tokyo Olympics quarter-finals against the European champions Serbia and then did not qualify for the quarter-finals, China's three major sports have all bid farewell to the current Olympic Games. From the worst record in the history of the end of the Tokyo trip to the Chinese women's soccer team, to the group stage failed to complete the defense of the Chinese women's volleyball team, and then in the masters of the field stopped in the last eight of the Chinese women's basketball team, the three women's teams are China's three major balls in the Olympic Games to play, they held up China's three major balls the whole piece of heaven, but can only withstand the fate of the early to return home.
Although the Chinese army in the Tokyo Olympic Games continue to fight for gold and silver good news, but the death of the three big ball is people's heart for a long time can not rest assured that the regret. Because people always have unlimited expectations for the three major balls, especially these women's forces that have experienced a glorious past.
In April this year, with the Chinese women's soccer team obtained a ticket to the Tokyo Olympics, and China's women's basketball team, China's women's volleyball team together, completed the Chinese women's "three big balls" gathered in Tokyo. At that time, people exclaimed that women are not inferior to men, these girls shoulder the expectations of China's women's ball team program, but also in the men's three major ball team downturn, hold up the whole sky.
However, Tokyo is not destined to be the stage for China's three major soccer balls to bloom. China's women's soccer team in the group stage only achieved one point, but also in the face of Brazilian women's soccer team and the Netherlands women's soccer team suffered two tragic losses, and finally left the field.
There will always be success and failure, withstand the praise and commendation at the peak, we must be able to withstand the loneliness and reluctance in the trough. Success makes a person's heart pounding, but failure is more people's bones, only do not forget the failure, the future will one day return to those who belong to their glory.
Farewell to the Olympic Games at this moment, they will have the next Olympic dream in their hearts, and the rising stars of the three major sports may still be able to carry the flag of their elders in the future. The Olympic Games not only teaches people how to pursue their dreams and enjoy the victory, but also teaches them how to bear the failure and start again.
