The Czech side responded strongly in the second set, leveling the match at 25-23 with some impressive defensive plays. Undeterred, China recalibrated their strategy and dominated the next two sets, winning 25-15 and 25-22, and sealing the contest in just four sets.
Standout player Wu Mengjie powered through with a match-high 25 points, while Zhuang Yushan and Wang Yuanyuan bolstered the team with 21 and 15 points respectively. Their combined efforts not only fueled a comeback but also highlighted a vibrant display of teamwork and resilience. 🎉🏐
