On December 20, Beijing time, Li Yingying, the Chinese women's volleyball player who is leading the Tianjin women's volleyball team to compete in the Club World Cup, accepted an exclusive interview with CCTV.
In the interview, Li Yingying hinted that she may not participate in the next Olympics: "My current physical condition and injury reaction are unknown, and I am a little confused and uncertain about the future. I can't really say for sure if I'll be able to compete in the next Olympics, but I think it's the end of my career. Of course, as long as I'm still on the court, I still enjoy and cherish every game and hope that I can have a better time. ”
However, the main attacker of the Chinese women's volleyball team also said that he was eager to play in a high-level European league: "After coming back from the Paris Olympics, I was depressed for a while, went out to relax, and when I decided to go out to play one day, I suddenly wanted to struggle again." I want to play abroad, and my love and love for volleyball is engraved in my bones, and it is still very difficult to give up after so many years. ”
Li Yingying, born on February 17, 2000, is another recognized world-class main attacker of the Chinese women's volleyball team after Zhu Ting. Unfortunately, Li Yingying's peak failed to get more honors with the Chinese women's volleyball team, she participated in the Olympic Games twice, lost the group stage in Tokyo, and led the Chinese women's volleyball team to the top of the group at the Paris Olympics, but lost to Turkey in 5 games and missed the top 4.
Of course, the 24-year-old Li Yingying is still in the peak of her career, and in the second round of the previous Club World Cup group stage against Serie A giants Milan, Li Yingying scored 22 points alone to score the same score as the opponent's Olympic champion and Italian receiver Egnu. If Li Yingying chooses to retire prematurely, it will be a huge loss for herself and the Chinese women's volleyball team.
