Match point

Chapter 252
Here, the reporters tried to encircle Gao Wen without success. No matter how they were edited, it would be very difficult to conjure up a flower, which was frustrating.

On that side, the journalists who failed to intercept rushed to another stadium one after another, ready to put all their bets on another "hot spot".

Two hours later, Zverev Jr. came on to face his opponent in the second round.

I don't know whether it is trapped by his own state or the pressure brought by off-court attention, Zverev Jr.'s game is still a bit stumbling.

In the first set, the two sides bite very tightly, and Zverev Jr. won "6:4" with only one break advantage.

However, in the second set, Zverev Jr. did not show his dominance as expected, and the game was still very anxious. In the break and counter-break, he was entangled all the way to "6:6" and entered the tie-break.

Afterwards, in the midst of saving inventory and wasting break points, both opponents got some opportunities and missed some opportunities. The final score was fixed at "12:10", and Zverev Jr. won with his deeper strength.

No matter what, a victory is a victory after all, and it is a victory in straight sets. The most important thing is to successfully advance to the next round, but the process and the score are not what people expected at all.

Because Binghamton is only at the challenge level, and because there are too many expectations and attention gathered on Zverev Jr., everyone expects his performance to be stronger and more exciting, but the first and second rounds The overall performance fluctuates significantly, which is inevitably disappointing:
"The favourite, that's it?"

If you think about it with your knees, you can know that after the game, the reporters will never let Zverev Jr. easily.

The fact is also the same. Zverev Jr. was crowded by more than 30 reporters to the point where he couldn’t move an inch. There is no escape at all.

buzzing.

Buzz!
It's like a hundred thousand flies lingering in the ear, annoying but unable to get rid of.

"Excuse me how is your condition today", "How do you rate your game", "Is the condition not at its best because of jet lag and weather", "How do you evaluate today's opponent", "Do you think you are in the best position?" Can the next game be adjusted to the best", "Are you satisfied with your performance"...

Deja Vu.

The same venue, the same characters, the same problem, the scenes from yesterday and today were copied and pasted in this way, and the reporters still showed no mercy to Zverev Jr.

"Sasha, Gao also advanced smoothly today. You two players are advancing side by side. If you follow this momentum, it is very likely that you will meet in the final. What do you think of Gao's performance?"

go hand in hand?

neck and neck?

The reporters actually juxtaposed Zverev Jr. with the unknown guy. Just the words and tone of the question made people feel uncomfortable.

Zverev Jr. replied angrily, "I don't know, I just focus on my own game, and haven't watched other players' games for the time being."

This answer has already suppressed a lot of negative emotions, trying to avoid being irritated by reporters as much as possible.

But the reporters could feel the depression of Zverev Jr., so they continued to fan the flames.

"Sasha, you are still not at your best, but Gao's touch is getting hotter and hotter. If you play against each other, are you still confident of winning the championship?"

Little Zverev: ? ? ?

What is this problem of forcibly creating contradictions?

Because the manager didn't say hello in advance, Zverev Jr. didn't know about the Internet boom, let alone what his words meant. He just wondered why these people were holding on to an unknown person?Could it be that his father is a big shot?
Little Zverev's irritability was surging in his chest, "No, I don't think he can be a threat."

A direct counterattack hit back like this, and there was a hint of disgust in his eyes, but the turbidity in his chest still could not be vented. Looking at the eagerly looking eyes of the reporters in front of him, he said viciously:
"Who is he? I don't know him!"

boom!
again!
The offensive words appeared again!

Then Zverev Jr. pushed away from the turbulent encirclement of reporters and prepared to break through.

But how could journalists be willing to let their prey go so easily?Followed the little Zverev step by step, not only did not have annoyance or regret, but also rushed forward with enthusiasm, like a shark smelling blood, biting the flesh and blood of little Zverev and tearing it.

"Sasha, Gao said he would let you remember his name!"

The words are the same words, but the differences in context, tone, and intonation can convey completely different attitudes. The reporter in front of him has a strong sense of provocation, mixed with the scorching heat of the sun, and moves towards the young Zverev. He rushed over and hit the bridge of the nose like a heavy punch.

Powerful.

After the young Zverev tried to break free from the reporter's encirclement and failed, the piercing sound hit him, and then he turned his head, almost hitting the reporter's microphone directly, feeling a round and hard thing relentlessly moving towards the reporter. With his mouth stuffed in, his heart almost jumped out, and he glared at the questioning reporter.

"Then let him try."

A voice came out from the depths of his throat, with a hoarse roar, like a demon showing his minions, and hitting back mercilessly.

More importantly, immediately after, Zverev Jr. erupted with a powerful force from the inside out, abruptly pushing the reporters out of a passage, but because the reporters were too crowded, the balance of the center of gravity was severely shattered. If you step back, if you don't stand firmly, it will fall to the ground like a domino.

Little Zverev hesitated for a moment, but he rushed out after all, striding away, leaving chaos behind.

Hula la.

Hula la.

The scene was a mess.

"Little Zverev felt the severe challenge from Gao, became angry and had a serious physical conflict with the reporter."

The headlines of the news can feel the hostility of the reporter.

In fact, Zverev’s irritability was not directly related to Gao Wen, but the reporters made the connection on purpose, as if Zverev and Gao Wen had just completed a boxing match, and then exaggerated the injuries on the scene of the reporters to create The illusion of blood flowing into a river, the keywords of horror detonated the Internet in an instant.

The reporters then attached a large number of photos of the mess at the scene, as if a typhoon had passed through the country. Although they did not say it explicitly, the invisible connection inside and outside the words implied that all this was caused by the young Zverev. shocking.

Compared with yesterday, today has gone a step further. All the attacking firepower is tilted towards the young Zverev. During the bombardment, the netizens have no intention of showing mercy, and the overwhelming complaints and curses are like a flood. It broke out and swallowed up Zverev in an instant.
