A HIGHLY-ANTICIPATED showdown between Tianjin and Shanghai in the 2021-22 Chinese Women's Volleyball Super League turned out to be a lopsided one, as Tianjin concluded the second phase with a perfect record after dominating their opponents 3-0 (25-23, 25-21, 25-12). Tianjin boasted an unbeaten record since the start of the season, entering Monday's game with 12 consecutive victories, while Shanghai had managed 11 wins out of 12. Shanghai rested some regular players, while Tianjin was at full strength with four players scoring double figures, which helped the defending champion register a straight-set win. (Xinhua) |
