Client of Chinanews.com, March 7th. In the early morning of Beijing time on the 7th, a group of sub-regions of the Confederations Cup ended the fourth round of competition. The Chinese women's team, consisting of Wang Qiang, Zhang Shuai, Zheng Saisai, Peng Shuai and Xu Yizheng, defeated Uzbekistan 2-1. While achieving four consecutive victories, they ensured to qualify for the World Series playoffs.
In the Confederations Cup, the Chinese team had previously played against Uzbekistan seven times, and the Chinese team led by 4 wins and 3 losses. However, the strength of Uzbekistan is not as good as before, and the Chinese team participating in this competition has 3 WTA singles players ranked in the top 50 in the world.
In the first singles, Zheng Sai, the 34th place in the world in singles, took only 50 minutes and swept the "after 00" teenager Karyanova in 6: 0 and 6: 1. Subsequently, Wang Qiang, the 29th in the world, also straightly set two sets, defeating Uzbekistan's world-ranked Shalipova 6: 1 and 6: 3.
In the third doubles, although Peng Shuai / Xu Yizheng retired from the first set to a 5-2 lead, the result has not hindered the overall situation. In the end, the Chinese team defeated the opponent 2-1 and achieved four consecutive victories.
After the campaign, the Chinese team has only the last opponent South Korea. As the first two in this group will qualify for the Confederations Cup World Cup playoffs, the Chinese team has actually locked a ticket to qualify for the playoffs. This will also be the return of the Chinese team to the Confederations Cup World Group playoff after 8 years. The Golden Flowers and the winners between the Netherlands and Latvia will compete for a seat in the World Group next year. (Finish)
