The women's basketball qualifiers for the Paris Olympics were held through four days and three rounds of fierce competition, and the 12 teams that participated in the final were finally determined. These teams are all world-class teams, including the first-ranked United States and second-ranked China, as well as other world-ranked national teams such as Australia, Spain and Canada. However, there were some surprises, such as eighth-placed Brazil unexpectedly exiting the tournament and 25th-placed Germany achieving a breakthrough victory. Such a competitive situation makes the women's basketball game at the Paris Olympics full of more unknowns and suspense.
The Women's Basketball Qualifiers divide teams from all continents into four groups for the preliminary round. Let's start with the Hungarian region, where the four teams have won one and lost one of their first two rounds, with the final round of fixtures determined by the final qualifiers. Japan defeated Canada in the final round and Spain beat Hungary to break through. The Hungarian team, as the host, was unfortunately out.
The situation in Brazil was shocking, but the hosts suffered an unexpected three-game losing streak and finished bottom of the group. Meanwhile, world No. 25 Germany won the Brazilian zone with a shock victory and successfully qualified. Australia and Serbia also qualified for the tournament thanks to their consistent performances.
The situation in Xi'an, China, is very exciting, and the French team has performed well in this division, winning all three games and firmly at the top of the table. The Chinese team performed well, achieving two wins and one loss, and successfully qualified. Puerto Rico, on the other hand, is in third place with one win and two losses, but has also managed to qualify for the Paris Olympics. As a result, France, China and Puerto Rico will travel to Paris for the women's basketball final, while New Zealand will unfortunately be eliminated.
The competition in the Belgian division is particularly fierce, and the gap between the upper and lower levels of strength is obvious. Team USA has won all three of its games and is the undisputed top of the standings. With two wins and one loss, the Belgian team successfully qualified. Nigeria, on the other hand, is third with one win and two losses, and is out of the tournament with Senegal. Judging from the overall performance, the results of the women's basketball qualifiers for the Olympic Games are no accident, and the stronger teams have advanced very smoothly.
The Chinese women's basketball team performed eye-catching in the qualifiers at home in Xi'an. In the first game, the Chinese team defeated the New Zealand team 94-47, showing the advantage of overall strength. Then, in the contest with Puerto Rico, the Chinese team won another big victory 105-69. However, in the second game, China suffered a 50-82 defeat to the mighty French team, a result that may have come as a bit of a surprise to the team.
However, I don't think the loss in this game is a bad thing. It made the Chinese team realise that they needed to have a more comprehensive preparation plan against different teams. China is a strong team with excellent rotations in every position, and they are at the top of their game in terms of height, speed, strength and crosshairs. However, in the face of strong confrontation, it is difficult for the Chinese team to play at the level it should have. Pressing defense has become an effective strategy against the Chinese team. The defeat reminded the Chinese team that they need to be prepared and strengthen their training and tactical arrangements to deal with pressing defenses before the Paris Olympics.
Overall, the Chinese women's basketball team is currently one of the strongest Chinese teams in history, and its strength should not be underestimated. However, the competition against other top teams is still full of challenges. The arrival of the Paris Olympics will be a fierce and uncertain competition, and for the Chinese women's basketball team, it is more necessary to study the opponent in-depth and adjust the tactics accurately in order to achieve better results.
The results of the women's basketball qualifiers for the Paris Olympics were very exciting, and the strength of each team was reflected. The Chinese women's basketball team had an excellent record at home, but suffered a heavy defeat against France. However, this defeat is not a bad thing, but it gives the Chinese team a valuable opportunity to examine their own shortcomings and make necessary adjustments and improvements in their preparation for the Paris Olympics.
The Chinese women's basketball team is currently strong, with excellent rotation personnel and excellent players in various positions. However, against top rivals in Paris, training and tactical preparation are still needed, especially when it comes to dealing with pressing defences. Only after full thinking and preparation can the Chinese women's basketball team achieve better results in the Paris Olympics.
Through the competition and defeat in the qualifiers, the Chinese women's basketball team can learn lessons from it and find ways and tactics to adapt to different opponents. I believe that at the Paris Olympics, the Chinese women's basketball team will show the world the strength and style of Chinese basketball with a top-level performance!
