On June 7, Beijing time, the fourth round of the World Women's Volleyball League is fiercely contested, as the match between the Chinese women's team and the Polish women's team is currently taking place. After three sets, China leads 2-1. Winning just one more set would seal the match. Is an upset in the making? We can hardly wait to see!

China's women's volleyball team is ranked sixth in the world. Since the finals are being held in Macau, China, our record—no matter how poor—guarantees a spot in the finals, providing an excellent opportunity for training. Thus, this World League is primarily focused on practice. In the first match, feeling the pressure, we were swept 3-0 by the rapidly improving Czech Republic, which has won three out of four games so far, proving that China's loss was not undeserved. Then, we narrowly defeated Thailand 3-2 in an Asian derby to secure our first league win. By the third round, against Serbia, we finally found the perfect lineup, delivering a brilliant performance with a clean 3-0 shutout, earning a second consecutive victory and moving up to seventh in the standings!
Tonight, we face Poland, a European powerhouse that has made rapid progress in recent years with consistent results, frequently claiming bronze medals in the World League. They are currently ranked third in the world and remain undefeated after three rounds of this World League, sitting firmly in fifth place on the standings!
The first two sets were one-sided. In the first set, Poland quickly found their rhythm, applying pressure from multiple angles to build a big lead and cruised to a 25-16 win. In the second set, China jumped out to a 9-4 lead with a 5-0 run, then extended it to 16-8, eventually taking the set 25-18. In the third set, China led 11-6 at one point, but Poland fought back to level the score. After tying at 14, the two teams engaged in a fierce back-and-forth battle. At 23-23, Zhuang Yushan exploded with a kill and a block to seal the set, putting us ahead 2-1. One more set wins the match!
