The stare-down between Zhang Weili and Yan Xiaonan caused an uproar. Yan Xiaonan received a lot of criticism for ignoring Zhang Weili's move to raise the national flag together. Li Jingliang also commented on this.
Li Jingliang said, "There is no right or wrong here, no good or bad, only likes and dislikes, right or wrong, and you have to have your own personality. Everyone needs to know what they are doing. That's all. Let's look at these two Chinese Derby, just support them. If you like them, support them. It doesn't matter if you don't like them, and don't criticize them, right? I think it's about individuality, having your own ideas and your own way of expression. No matter who wins, yes. China is very good to us.”
In fact, Yan Xiaonan also explained that she did not see Zhang Weili raising the national flag together and left the stage after looking at each other according to the procedure.
Indeed, the controversy on this matter can be put to an end, let’s return to the game itself. This showdown is of great significance to Zhang Weili, as she needs to retain her championship belt. For Yan Xiaonan, this may be her best opportunity to win the championship, and she doesn't want to miss it.
Of course, the relationship between the two is actually very good off the court. In the dressing room before the press conference, the two met, greeted each other friendly, hugged and high-fived each other, and they were in harmony.
