Regrets and expectations at the Tokyo Olympics
On July 27, our
women's soccer
The team said an early goodbye to the Olympics when they met the Netherlands in the group stage and lost 2-8. And on August 2nd.
China women's volleyball team
With two wins and three losses in the group stage, the journey to the Tokyo Olympics ended. Immediately after that, on August 4, our women's basketball team lost 70-77 in the match with Serbia, stopping at the quarter-finals of the Tokyo Olympics women's basketball. Due to our "three big balls" men's team group did not have access to the main round of the Olympic Games, our delegation soccer, volleyball, basketball project team all do not have access to the Tokyo Olympic Games medals.
Against the backdrop of the poor performance of the "three major sports", China's sports sector began to reflect on how to arouse their own determination to rise, to respond to the expectations of the fans. Naturalization is a direction to make up for the lack of talent, but the real future is "the integration of sports and education". Although the relevant departments have begun to take substantive action, but it will take time to see the results.
Soccer: Women's soccer, that tough red color
In this year's Olympic Games, the performance of China's women's soccer team has attracted widespread attention. Although the same as 17 years ago in Athens Olympic Games, "0-8", Tokyo Olympic Games, "2-8" is also jaw-dropping, but the women's soccer player Wang Frost in the critical moments of the second goal, to determine the victory, showing the spirit of resilience. However, from a practical point of view, it is unrealistic to hope that Wang Frost will be able to "cover up a hundred ugliness" in the qualifiers and the main rounds one after another.
Basketball: men's basketball, why all stars and no results?
In China's basketball world, there is a saying, "To find results for women's basketball, to find stars for men's basketball." This year's Olympic Games, China's men's basketball team for the first time did not reach the Olympic Games, the outside world's attention has only turned more to the women's basketball as well as the three-person basketball program. China's women's basketball team failed to enter the quarterfinals at the Tokyo Olympics, but the results of the group stage win and the spirit shown in the process is worthy of respect, and they have also defended the glory of China's basketball to a certain extent.
Direction: "Sports and education integration" is more "radical" than naturalization.
China's three major ball in the international arena of the weakness of the Tokyo Olympics in fact has long been not only the topic. As early as before and after the London Olympics, the State General Administration of Sports has already put forward "to revitalize the three major balls". However, due to the team ball project talent cultivation cycle is long, the rate of success is low, in the Olympic Games to achieve the results of the possibility of low, so that the provincial and municipal sports bureau leaders have to be in the capital investment in their own "small account".
Starting in 2019, making up for the shortfall in talent by naturalizing outstanding athletic talent has become a quick and effective method, but the talent pool of competitive sports still needs to rely on a fruitful cultivation system.
In fact, the leaders of the Chinese Football Association and China's Basketball Association have realized the meaning of real integration with the education sector. Three major ball sports in the talent cultivation of "sports and education integration" has entered than ever before to a degree of closeness.
"Sports and education integration" may now be able to find the fundamental solution to the three major ball maladies, 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.

Reporter's quick comment: the three big ball farewell to the field, the heart still has the Olympic dream
August 4, with our women's basketball team in the Tokyo Olympics quarter-finals against the European champions Serbia and then did not reach the quarter-finals, China's three major sports have all bid farewell to the current Olympic Games. From the worst record in history to the end of the Tokyo tour of China's women's football, to the group stage failed to complete the defense of China's women's volleyball team, and then in the masters of the field stopped in the last eight of China's women's basketball team, the three women's teams are China's three major balls in the Olympic Games on the play, they hold up China's three major balls the whole piece of heaven, but can only withstand the fate of the early return home.
Although our army in the Tokyo Olympic Games continue to come to fight for gold and silver good news, but the death of the three major balls is the people's heart for a long time can not be assured of regret, because people always have unlimited expectations for the three major balls, especially these women's troops who have experienced a glorious past.
In April this year, with China's women's football achieved a ticket to the Tokyo Olympic Games, and China's women's basketball, China's women's volleyball together, completed China's women's "three big balls" gathered in Tokyo. At that time, people were lamenting the women's women, 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 an open stage for our three major sports. China's women's soccer team only achieved one point in the group stage, but also suffered two tragic defeats against the Brazilian women's soccer team and the Dutch women's soccer team, and finally left the field in disgrace. "Try my best" is the most helpless and final expression of the women's soccer girls before leaving the field of the Tokyo Olympics.
China's women's volleyball team, on the other hand, started the road to defending its title with the expectations of the nation, but it failed to pass even the group stage hurdle. Accompanied by the song "The sun always shines in the wind and rain", the women's volleyball team girls ended the curtain-raiser of the Tokyo Olympics with a deep bow to their meritorious coach Lang Ping.
Our women's basketball team has traveled the furthest of the three units, but has also stopped at the Elite Eight.
There will always be success and loss, withstand the praise and commendation at the peak, we must withstand the loneliness and reluctance in the trough. Success makes a person's heart pounding, but the loss is more people's bones, only do not forget the failure, the future will one day return to those who belong to their glory.
Today, we, on the other hand, are saddened by their failures, and the Big Three leave each person with a unique story of pain and joy.
Leaving the Olympic Games at the moment, they will have the next Olympic aspirations in their hearts, and the rising stars of the three major balls may still be able to carry the flag of their predecessors in the future.
The Olympics not only teaches people how to work hard to follow their dreams and enjoy success, but also how to endure failure and start again from scratch.
