Ping Pong Life

Chapter 202 The English and the Brazilians
The six teenagers all started from the qualifying round, but in the end, only one teenager made it to the main match, and the other five all failed.

Among the five young players who lost their halberds, three were lost to experienced veterans from foreign associations, and two were lost to rookies of the same age from Kimchi Country and Sweden respectively.

It is worth mentioning that the Swedish player who eliminated the Chinese table tennis player was Morad who once held a polygonal racket on T2.

Losing to a veteran is understandable, but losing to a young player from a foreign association of the same age is actually very problematic. It proves that our reserve force has been compared by other countries.

Cai Guodong is quite open about this. After the first day of the qualifying match, he said in an interview with China TV Sports Channel: "Our young players have never had a clear advantage in the world. This is due to us. However, please rest assured that our players have more stamina, and when we really start to build a technical and tactical system, they will quickly widen the gap with their peers in foreign associations."

At this time, Huaping was generally optimistic.

But by the end of the day yesterday, the coaching staff couldn't be more optimistic.

As soon as the match started in the morning, the young player who entered the main match lost in the first round, and his opponent was the German player Sissfeld Patrick, who was ranked 19th in the world.

Sisfield performed very poorly in T2, and the game process was only average in the first round, so many Huaguo fans didn't think much of him.

But when he faced the Huaping teenager, he played heartily and passionately, just like a god.

The coaching staff is still stable, because the losers are still only teenagers. After the first round of the main match, the four national first-team players have successfully won and all entered the top 16, just like every open match in the past .

But in the second round in the afternoon, another accident occurred.

Fang Xiaobo was eliminated by Kimchi Country player Zhu Shixian, the total score was 3:4, and he lost 11:13 in the final game, failing to enter the quarterfinals.

So there are only three Huaping players left in the quarterfinals.

This morning, the eight-in-four competition started. The first game was a battle between foreign associations, and the second game was between Chinese table tennis player Yan Pingan and Belarusian player Ochumelov.

Ochumelov is 42 years old. He holds the racket horizontally with his right hand. Because of his age, his physical strength has declined, and he basically doesn’t run much. However, he is 1.9 meters tall. Standing in front of the stage with his arms outstretched, he can directly cover the whole In the face of Yan Pingan's violent bombardment, he mainly focused on defense. He occasionally pulled the ball with his forehand, and basically pushed and blocked with his backhand. He didn't score, but was eliminated with a score of 2:4 in the end.

At this point, the whole world has seen the problems of Huaping.

Out of stock!
Over the past few decades, the main reason for the prosperity of Huaping is that we not only have a few main players, but also a large number of people who want to get ahead at any time.

This was the case when Wang Wendong suppressed Sun Tianlong. At that time, even if Wang Wendong retired three years earlier, Sun Tianlong was still capable of taking over.

But in recent years, although Sun Tianlong's rule has become more and more indestructible, but under Sun Tianlong, there are not many truly all-around strong men.

Last month, Luo Jiu made a great achievement and returned to the super-first-class realm. It can be regarded as a wave of life for Huaping. People come to grab the class and seize power.

Even the other players who are the top five main players are losing the chain, and the first-team players from the countries other than the five main players all have problems.

For example, yesterday’s Fang Xiaobo, in fact, has super strong forehand ability, almost ranked among the top five in the world, but his backhand is not good, resulting in a position too far to the left, easy to be transferred, and because he does not have a backhand, he is very good at Zhu Shixian. The attacking world-class chipper seemed to play extremely monotonously, with forehand pulls all over the court, but in the end he was suppressed by Zhu Shixian tactically.

Today's Yan Ping'an actually plays very fast, and his left and right hands are also very balanced, but he lacks strength, so facing a 42-year-old veteran who doesn't run very much, he has never had a strong enough kill to penetrate his opponent. On the contrary, he exhausted his self-confidence in the continuous attack, became impetuous, and was played by the veteran with an extremely beautiful defensive counterattack.

If these two people exchange opponents, they are very likely to win, but the problem is that there is always bad luck in the draw. Is it possible that you have to rely on luck every time you play a game?

If you lose, you lose. It can only be blamed for not being strong enough.

Therefore, those far-sighted people in the world table tennis world have realized that Huaping may still be very strong in the future, but it no longer has the kind of dominance that can win all medals, because it is hard to support a single person, no matter how good a person is, he will still be in a low state During the period, you will get sick, get injured, and have various accidents.

Huaping, who has lost the thickness of the bench, will be torn off piece by piece by other table tennis associations who are watching him in his weak period.

In the World Table Tennis Championships in the first half of this year, Sun Tianlong unexpectedly lost power, and finally won the championship with his uncle, which is the best evidence.

In short, among the final men's semi-finals of the Oman Open, only Sun Tianlong and Xiao Fei are two Chinese players, and the ambition to win all the medals has been shattered so far.

At this time, the Huaping coaching staff and Huaguo fans are still reluctant to accept it. After all, these two people happen to be ranked first and second in the world, and they happen to be in the upper and lower halves, so there is a great possibility that they will meet in the final , Regarding the strength of these two people, everyone is very relieved. Even if the bronze medal is gone, the gold and silver medals are still stable.

But everyone did not expect that there was an accident in the semi-finals.

The semi-finals were held at [-]:[-] p.m. local time in Oman. Because there was a four-hour time difference between Oman and the Emperor, it was [-]:[-] p.m. in Huaguo time. At this time, the all-night carnival of Spade Q was still going on, and Wang Chao was in the room Snoring.

The first was the match between Sun Tianlong and England's Pique.

Pique is ranked 16th in the world, and he is still under Fang Xiaobo and Yan Pingan. It seems that he is not a big threat, but his performance in this game is amazing. He even directly defeated the Dragon 11:7 in the first game. Team.

After the first game, the world was shocked, because everyone in the industry could see that it was not Sun Tianlong who lost the chain, but that Pique really played very, very well. He not only perfectly resisted the dragon team's ever-changing tactics Routine, and in this game showed an extremely mature and tricky backhand technique.

Yes, like Lin Zijun who was born in September, although the 23-year-old England player Pique is not a rookie, he is still one of the new generation players because of his late debut. His style of play also has strong characteristics of the new generation , seldom step back, seldom sideways, extremely fast paced, and at the same time the backhand is stronger than the forehand.

But his backhand is different from Lin Zijun's. As a European player, he is taller and stronger than Lin Zijun, but his touch is not as delicate.

So his backhand twist is not as powerful as Lin Zijun's, but he has unique advantages in backhand quick tear and backhand pull. Advantages of the arc.

Sun Tianlong quickly stabilized after losing a game first, and found Pique's weakness, began to focus on Pique's forehand position, successfully grabbed the next game, and tied the score at 1:1.

At this time, the vast majority of fans all over the world felt that Sun Tianlong had won.

Because the characteristic of Sun Tianlong's games over the years is that no matter how bad the disadvantage is, as long as he can win the next round, he will definitely be able to win all subsequent rounds.

However, Pique still maintained a very good state when he was defeated in the second game. He continued to adjust his tactics in the third game and won the third game.

After this game, many professional players were shocked into silence.

Because this is the first time in the past seven years that someone can turn back after being clearly found by Sun Tianlong.

Pique's big comeback was based on directly finding a way to counter Sun Tianlong in the shortest time: stand on the right side more than usual, and at the same time increase the running speed.

These two things are easy to say, but extremely difficult to do.

Because Sun Tianlong himself is an extremely smart player, he found that Pique was on the right side, so he would deliberately hit the ball to the backhand at a large angle, so Pique still needs to keep moving left to save the ball, and he needs to have time before receiving the ball. More anticipation to ensure that you will not be transferred out of balance.

At the same time, the running speed of a player when playing should be generally constant, because he still needs to maintain his body balance during the running process, especially when hitting the ball, he must have a stable center of gravity, otherwise If the action is not in place, the ball will definitely fly.

Therefore, when Pique's foot speed suddenly increased, the quality of the shot and the stability of the shot did not decline at all, which in itself proved his extremely outstanding talent.

After this round, countless coaches of the Table Tennis Association all over the world changed Pique's information in their databases, and adjusted his evaluation from first-class to super-class.

They can all see that Pique has completed the super-evolution at some point, and it has been fully demonstrated in this game.

After today, England is a table tennis powerhouse with superb players.

In the subsequent fourth game, Sun Tianlong did not give Pique any chance.

He is still the all-powerful hexagonal fighter. Pique can hit him twice by surprise, but he is not really able to bring him down.

Sun Tianlong just revised the valuation of Pique's technical indicators, and re-formulated the targeted strategy, and eliminated Pique without any risk, and entered the finals first.

In this regard, the world table tennis world did not have too many surprises other than marveling that "The Empire Destroyer Dragon is definitely not human", because they are really used to it.

In the past seven years, there have been too many super geniuses who have placed high hopes on Sun Tianlong, but no one has really defeated Sun Tianlong.

Perhaps the only exception is Luo Jiu, who made a great achievement last month.

At Sun Tianlong's state, unless he is in poor condition or injured, otherwise, if you want to defeat him, you must be able to truly compete with him in all aspects and become a hexagonal fighter like him.

It is impossible to defeat Sun Tianlong by relying on only one or two outstanding abilities.

In another semi-final that followed, the biggest upset since the start of the game broke out.

It can even be said that this is the biggest upset among the thirteen tournaments on the international tour this year.

Brazilian player Hook Calderano, ranked fifth in the world, is 22 years old this year.

Hua Guo player Xiao Fei, ranked second in the world, is 29 years old this year.

In this second-fifth confrontation, Hu Ke completely crushed Xiao Fei with a big score of 4:0.

A miracle.
