China News Service, Beijing, January 1st (Reporter Xing Rui) Time flies, and the stars move.
In the past year, we have witnessed the grand opening of the Beijing Winter Olympics and the Winter Paralympics, and also witnessed the glorious moment when the veteran Lionel Messi reached the top of the world.
When all the excitement, joy, regret, and adventure that belong to 2022 come to an end, in 2023, many national teams such as national football, men's basketball, and national table tennis will face the big test, and exciting sports events will also take turns staged.
Data map: On October 9, Chengdu, Sichuan, the 56th ITTF World Table Tennis Team Championships (Final) in 2022 Chengdu ushered in the tenth match day.

Meeting in Durban, National Table Tennis is full of challenges
As a glorious teacher in the national team, Guoping's every move always attracts the attention of fans.
After the end of the Chengdu Team World Table Tennis Championships, the national table tennis team will also face the test of the Durban World Table Tennis Championships.
The Asian Trials for the Durban World Table Tennis Championships will be held in Doha, Qatar from January 7 to 13, 2023. This is the first match of the new season of national table tennis.
It is worth mentioning that, in addition to the main players such as Fan Zhendong, Ma Long, and Wang Chuqin, young players Xiang Peng and Yuan Licen are also on the list.
With the rise of players from foreign associations such as Zhang Benzhi and others, the men's national table tennis team is facing an unprecedented impact.
Now that the teenager is playing, it also means that Guoping is working hard to complete the transition from old to new.
The Durban World Table Tennis Championships will be held between May 20 and 28, 2023.
If Guoping wants to win all the championships, I am afraid that it will need to bear more pressure.
Data map: On the evening of July 26, the last match of the 2022 East Asian Cup women's football team was held at the Kashima Football Stadium in Japan. The Chinese women's football team fought fiercely with the host Japanese team for 90 minutes, and finally drew 0-0 with the Japanese team.

Starting again, "Clanging Rose" appeared in the World Cup
The lingering heat of the World Cup in Qatar has not yet dissipated. The Women's World Cup, which will be held between July 20 and August 20, 2023, has already made me feel excited.
This time, fans can finally see the Chinese team on the stage of the World Cup.
According to the schedule, the Chinese women's football team will be in the same group as England, Denmark and the winner of the play-off group B (Senegal/Haiti/Chile).
As the Asian champion, the performance of "Clanging Rose" is highly anticipated.
It is worth mentioning that the Chinese women's football team finished second in the 1999 World Cup, only one step away from winning the championship.
After winning the Asian Cup in 2022, many women's football internationals have joined overseas clubs.
It is believed that through the experience of overseas high-level leagues, "Clang Rose" will shine in this World Cup.
Data map: In the early morning of March 25th, Beijing time, in the Asian top 12 match of the World Preliminaries, after falling behind by one goal first, with Zhu Chenjie's penalty kick, the national football team drew 1:1 with the Saudi team.

Encounter Qatar, the national football team blew the rallying call
The Qatar World Cup has just ended, and fans including the editor are still immersed in the passion and excitement brought about by the football feast, and news has also spread from the Chinese men's football team: the national men's football team plans to go abroad in the first half of next year. Overseas training.
The focus of preparations for the national football team in 2023 is undoubtedly the Asian Cup and the 2026 World Cup in the top 36 matches in Asia.
Although the specific dates of these two competitions have not yet been determined, the editor still wants to borrow a famous saying in the football circle: there is not much time left for the national football team.
With the "enrollment expansion" of the next World Cup, there will be 8.5 places for the finals in the Asian region of the 2026 World Cup. This change has obviously increased the chances of the national football team qualifying for the World Cup finals.
However, under the current complex and severe public opinion situation, the national football team still needs to be motivated and speak with results!
Data map: On August 25, local time, in Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan, in the fourth window of the 2023 Men's Basketball World Cup qualifiers, the Chinese team defeated the Kazakhstan team 68:56 and won the second round of the world preliminaries. First win.

Fighting for Paris tickets, the Chinese men's basketball team is looking forward to avenging their shame
I still remember that the Chinese men's basketball team regrettably lost in the men's basketball team's defeat in the Tokyo Olympics. It was the first time since 1984 that it lost its qualification for the Olympic Games.
This has also become a dark memory that the editor who loves basketball does not want to look back.
After a lapse of more than a year, the Chinese men's basketball team has secured its place in the 2023 World Cup two rounds ahead of schedule.
The Men's Basketball World Cup to be held in the Philippines, Japan and Indonesia from August 25 to September 10 next year is also a qualifying event for the Paris Olympics. The highest-ranked Asian team in this World Cup will directly receive tickets for the Paris Olympics.
Although the current World Cup grouping has not yet been determined, the Chinese men's basketball team is slowly getting on the right track after experiencing a trough.
In 2022, Serbian coach Alexander Djordjevic will take over the Chinese men's basketball team.
He once said that for the upcoming World Cup, the Chinese men's basketball team "has no upper limit on their goals."
At that time, what is the record of the Chinese men's basketball team going to the World Cup? Can they get rid of the shame and win the precious tickets to Paris?
It will become the "highlight" in the hearts of the editor and the fans.

Heart-to-heart harmony, Hangzhou Asian Games "arrived though late"
If the Beijing Winter Olympics is a feast of ice and snow, then the Hangzhou Asian Games will be a highly anticipated midsummer carnival.
As the third city in China to obtain the right to host the Asian Games (the first two are Beijing and Guangzhou), the Hangzhou Asian Games will be finally determined to be held from September 23 to October 8, 2023 after announcing the postponement in 2022.
As another competition held at home, in addition to traditional sports such as football basketball and volleyball, e-sports will also appear on the field as an official competition, including "League of Legends", "Glory of the King Asian Games Edition", "Peace Eight popular e-sports events including Elite Asian Games Edition, FIFA Online 4, Hearthstone, Street Fighter 5, Dream Three Kingdoms 2 and DOTA2 will all appear on the stage of the Hangzhou Asian Games.
It is worth mentioning that the medals of these events will also be officially included in the national medal list.
Now, playing games can finally win glory for the country justifiably!
At the last Asian Games in Jakarta, e-sports only appeared as a performance event. The good results of "two golds and one silver" achieved by the Chinese representative team still impressed the audience deeply.
Coming to Hangzhou this time, the editor is also very much looking forward to the outstanding performance of the Chinese players at home. I believe this will also be an excellent opportunity for the public to further understand and accept e-sports.
In fact, in addition to the above-mentioned key competitions, regular events from the five major leagues, the NBA, to the Chinese Super League, and the CBA will also be held as scheduled.
How long has it been since you watched a game live?
In 2023, why not go to the scene to feel the charm of sports.
