Xinhua News Agency, Tenerife Island, Spain, September 27 (Su Bin, Xie Yuzhi) 27th is the women’s basketball World Cup off day. China, who has advanced to the top eight, has conducted site training on the afternoon of women’s basketball. Coach Xu Limin said that he hoped the young team could seize this rare opportunity and go all out to achieve something.
On women’s basketball, China won a victory that greatly boosted morale in the cross elimination match. In the past five years, China defeated Japan, the old rival who played the main force in the competition for the first time, it also achieved the goal of hitting the top eight before the competition.
But Xu Limin was worried that the team members would have a mentality of not wanting to go forward. He grasped the details tightly during the tactical drill of the day’s training and corrected the movements that the team members could not do well in time.
“The opportunity to enter the top eight is rare. So many teams were eliminated, and we felt sorry to leave with tears, but we were glad to stay. Why didn’t we fight for and seize every opportunity to move forward?” Xu Limin said, “I just can’t walk. At least I can gain something through this opportunity to bring it to next year and prepare for next year, instead of having no gains after chaos. This is a very failure.”
Xu Limin said that the team should go all out in every group match, cross elimination match and the match against Australia on the 28th to beat the training level and mobilize the potential of the players, improve yourself in this process.
In recent years, China women’s basketball is hard to win when facing Australia in the competition. Its opponent is now ranked fourth in the world and also has the world’s top center cambich. How to limit cambecchi to the greatest extent will become the key for China to continue to move forward women’s basketball.
Xu Limin said that cambecchi’s ability was indeed strong. Now he has added peripheral offensive methods, and the strong attack in the basket has also made great progress than in the past, in the process of defense, the Chinese team should try its best to prevent cambecchi from receive the ball. When attacking, it is necessary to arrange targeted tactics to make cambecchi’s height weak.
“Our two young centers (Han Xu and Li Yuelu) can’t fight her one-on-one, and we need to create opportunities for other points by cooperating with the conversion. Her running speed is slower and her physical fitness will be limited. We should seize such an opportunity and strive to make her unstable and create a better opportunity for maneuver cooperation, “Xu Limin said.
