According to previous reports, the Chinese women’s basketball team failed to advance to the knockout stage, thus bringing an end to their Olympic journey.
Following the conclusion of the match between Australia and France, the Chinese women’s basketball team was unable to progress, marking the end of their Olympic adventure. While we can lament Japan’s loss by 27 points or the Western European and American teams’ coordinated efforts, when the team’s fate is no longer in its own hands due to a lack of control over the group standings, it’s clear that the team’s destiny is not entirely within their grasp.
The decline in the team’s performance at the Olympics was evident even before the main event began. Over the past two years, the team has moved from being the world’s second-best to now failing to reach the group stage, a situation that requires reflection and analysis.
Li Yu, who returned from her US stint, has shown impressive performance at the Olympics, revealing that the comfort of domestic leagues might not be enough to maintain the high level of athletes’ competitive states.
