Event Preview

1. Firstly, both the Chinese women's and men's teams have had underwhelming results so far.
2. The Chinese men's team is currently on a five-game losing streak, ranking ninth, and is essentially out of contention for the semifinals.
3. The Chinese women's team has a record of two wins and two losses, ranking sixth, with a chance to win and enter the top four to advance to the semifinals. Last night's loss to the USA was very disappointing; hopefully, they won’t repeat mistakes.
4. Today, the Chinese men's team faces Italy and has a good chance to win because the opponent’s strength is average.
5. For the Chinese women's team to reach the top four, they must defeat Canada today; otherwise, they will miss the chance to advance to the semifinals.
