China Women's Basketball Team vs. South Korea. With the addition of fierce inside player Zhang Ziyu, the Chinese team was filled with confidence to defend their championship. However, reality proved harsh as they faced their old rivals, the Japanese team, and struggled with three-point shooting while their opponents scored freely from beyond the arc. Ultimately, the Chinese team lost to Japan, failing to claim the championship on home soil. Meanwhile, the South Korean team was defeated by the strong Australian team in the semifinals. Both teams were in the same group and had faced each other in the group stage, where China had won decisively against South Korea. Now, as they meet again, the strength difference suggests that China should have a high chance of victory!

As the game began, the China Women's Basketball Team quickly found their rhythm, scoring from multiple players and hitting sharp three-pointers. They ended the first quarter with a 31-14 lead, taking control of the game. In the second quarter, the Chinese team continued their explosive performance, combining inside and outside play, and outscored South Korea 27-15. By halftime, China had established a significant lead. In the second half, the Chinese team continued to dominate, relentlessly attacking the South Korean side, who struggled to keep up, leading to an ever-widening gap that effectively ended the suspense of the match early. In the final quarter, while China's offensive pace slowed, South Korea attempted to close the gap to save face, but ultimately, China won decisively against South Korea!

As a result, the China Women's Basketball Team secured third place. They performed exceptionally well in this match, showcasing both inside and outside skills, and their three-point shooting was on point. If they had played like this yesterday, Wang Siyu might not have lost to the Japanese team. It’s puzzling to see that each game, the starting player Li Yuan contributes so little, leaving many wondering why she continues to be used!
