Small goals, first to be the world's first [Competition]

After the points round-robin round is over and the top [-] is selected, it will be a normal single-elimination process, and each player in the round-robin group is also marked with a serial number. From the group arrangement and serial number, you can see which good seedlings the coaching staff is optimistic about.

The first position of the men's team is Su Yuan, which is expected by everyone, but the fans originally thought that the number one position in the lower half, that is, the ninth position of the whole game, would be the original first brother Xu Lixin, but it was written on it. It was Zhong Yu, and Xu Lixin ranked first in the lower quarter of the division in the same half as Zhong Yu, which was one of the semi-finalists.

The position of the women's singles position is also different from what the fans thought, it is actually Wen Tuantuan.

After Wen Tuantuan entered the national team as the women's singles champion in the National Table Tennis Trials in December, many fans paid attention to Wen Tuantuan's previous games.

The little girl is very strong. She came up from the city competition all the way, and she won easily. It seems that there is still a lot of room for her. Therefore, the fans also placed great hopes on this little girl, but they did not expect the coaching staff to directly send her Ranked number one.

Over the past decade or so, the men's team has failed, but the situation of the women's team has always been better than that of the men's team. Although it has declined a bit, there are still women players who can squeeze into the top ten in the world. Tuantuan ranked No. [-], which is enough to show their importance and expectations for this young player.

Many previous reports about the training camp also mentioned Wen Tuantuan's full potential. Looking at the schedule in front of them, the fans couldn't help but look forward to this game even more.

The round-robin competition on the first day was over, and no one was overturned on this day. The top [-] determined was no different from what the coaching staff and fans had predicted. It was indeed basically the top two in the group.

The pace of the game is very fast and lasts for three days in total. The first day is round-robin competition, the second day is the quarter-finals and semi-finals, and the third day is the final semi-finals and finals.

The next afternoon's quarter-finals were still within everyone's expectations, and nothing happened until the night's semi-finals.

The men's and women's teams of the World Table Tennis Championships each have five places, the top four in the competition will occupy four, and the remaining four players will compete in a points round-robin match again, and the one with the highest points will win the last place.

Therefore, when falling out of the semi-finals, it is already a bit dangerous.

In the second night's semi-finals, Su Yuan qualified for the first game, Du Yi qualified for the second game, Zhong Yu qualified for the third game, and Xu Lixin's last game, the fans waited for him to qualify, but they didn't expect He actually lost.

With a slight advantage, Tang Yingjie seized the opportunity and defeated Xu Lixin to advance to the semi-finals.

[?What's going on, I always feel that Xu Lixin was distracted just now? 】

[I didn’t see it, but this time I feel like he was a little hesitant to play, or I saw him in the points game yesterday, and his state was not right. Tang Yingjie is quite strong, and he seized the opportunity with his momentum. No move, There is still a chance, let's watch the next points race. 】

[But if Xu Lixin is still in this state... how do I feel that he will continue to overturn tomorrow... What's going on, my brother is stunned! ! 】

I don’t know whether the fans who watched the game saw it through or became prophets. In the points race for the last spot on the third morning, Xu Lixin actually overturned. He ranked second among the four in points and missed the World Cup. Table tennis opportunity.

But Hou Wenyuan ranked first in points and got the last place.

In the end, the five players from the World Table Tennis Championships men's team were Su Yuan, Zhong Yu, Du Yi, Tang Yingjie and Hou Wenyuan.

Du Yi and Tang Yingjie, who met in the physical synthesis, and Hou Wenyuan, who met in the pass-through match to the World Cup, not to mention Du Yi, Tang Yingjie and Hou Wenyuan, who were already acquainted with each other. A kind of fate.

It's just that although the quota has been determined, for them, the game is not over yet.

In the semifinals in the afternoon, Su Yuan faced Du Yi again, while Zhong Yu faced Tang Yingjie.

Su Yuan stepped into the arena and exchanged a glance with Du Yi, both of them couldn't help laughing.

"This scene looks a little familiar?" Du Yi teased with a smile.

Su Yuan also bent his eyes: "Indeed, but this time, you have to be serious."

"That's natural." Du Yi replied.

For the two, this was their second public match, and arguably the first, real, professional match.

Su Yuan and Du Yi met each other for the first time in sports, and also became opponents on the court for the first time, but it was an entertainment match, and neither of them was really serious about that match.

At that time, Du Yi did not expect that the child in front of him could go so far at once, and Su Yuan also did not expect that it would be so long before they became rivals again.

And standing on both sides of the same table again, after more than half a year, the two of them are no longer the immature appearance before.

Du Yi was encouraged, no longer evading, and learned to move forward, Su Yuan also became more mature, realized that he had a responsibility on his shoulders, and was no longer so impulsive.

Too many things have happened in the middle, and some things have changed, but their original intention has never changed.

Guess the ball, practice the ball, and then the game officially begins.

Su Yuan and Du Yi presented an extremely exciting match to everyone.

The high-flying ball that the two dug up in that entertainment game back then also played very frequently in this game, but it was more skillful than before, and the naked eye could see that it was better controlled.

Both of them completely let go of themselves to play this game.

Du Yi throws the serve high and spins sideways.

Su Yuan rubbed the board lightly to defend.

Du Yi did not have any hesitation for the short ball in the court, and he leaned forward and hit it fiercely and quickly!

Compared with before, his movements and fighting spirit are much more decisive, and the tactics in his mind are very clear-rushing to attack, fight for the inside ball, and strive to be caught off guard.

But Su Yuan was also prepared, and quickly retreated a few steps, swung his left arm, and drew the ball back.

……

Du Yi's original shortcoming of lack of distance from the table has also obviously improved a lot. Even if he didn't withstand Su Yuan's violent looping ball and retreated from the table, he could still hold up a lot of boards on the COSCO table.

As for the close-to-table ball that Du Yiben was good at, he controlled it a lot more delicately, and the secretive rotation of his high-throw serve made Su Yuan suffer several times.

The game was very exciting and intense.

During the two-month training camp, the players stayed together for training every day, and they also played several internal points matches. The level of familiarity with each other is completely different from before the training camp.

The more familiar the players are, the more they can see through each other's ideas in the game, and the number of boards will increase accordingly, which adds to the enjoyment of the game.

However, Su Yuan has participated in so many international competitions, and his extraordinary hard power is not covered.

With a strong enough foundation and a young age, he already had more experience than many others. In the semi-finals, Su Yuan finally won with a big score of 4:2.

In the six rounds of the game, they played seven rounds. In the sixth round, Du Yi did not give up. The two directly fought for the ball.

10: 10.

11: 10.

11: 11!

……

14: 13!

In the end, Su Yuan caught Du Yi's slight loophole and hit Du Yi's left half of the table with a lob first. Changed the line and hit the ball to Du Yi's right half of the table.

This shot was extremely risky, but the adventurous spirit in Su Yuan's bones was never suppressed, and he shot this shot without hesitation.

He still made it!

The small white ball rushed towards Du Yi's right half of the table very quickly. He hurried back to defend but still missed the best opportunity to catch the ball. The ball hit his edge and flew out high.

15: 13!

Su Yuan won the last point, won the game, and successfully advanced to the final!

In the second semi-final, Zhong Yu vs Tang Yingjie.

Like Su Yuan, Tang Yingjie is also a left-handed player. He has always been very good at using his left hand to make his opponent feel uncomfortable. This is his tactic. He also used this method when he defeated Xu Lixin in the semi-finals. tactics.

When right-handed players encounter left-handedness, they often feel a little awkward and uncomfortable, but Tang Yingjie can always grasp this awkwardness and discomfort, which becomes an opportunity for him to break the game.

Tang Yingjie is a player who can grasp the timing very well.

It's just a pity that he met Zhong Yu in this semi-final.

In terms of familiarity with left-handed rackets, apart from the left-handed athlete himself, Zhong Yu is probably the most familiar.

After all, Su Yuan was the one who practiced the most privately with Zhong Yu, played the most practice matches, and the person he was most familiar with.

Su Yuan's left-handed patting was superb, and Zhong Yu's understanding and adaptation to left-handed athletes was naturally meticulous.

Tang Yingjie's tactics were greatly compromised in the match between him and Zhong Yu. Even though he still tried to seize many opportunities to counterattack with all his strength, he still fell behind by a lot of points.

He was even defeated by Zhong Yu.

In the sport of table tennis, the left-handed racket is of course unique in terms of playing style, but Zhong Yu's penhold racket is even rarer in this era than the left-handed racket.

Even though he had sparred many times during the training camp, Tang Yingjie still couldn't adapt to the weird rotation of the penhold grip.

The turning line of the ball in the air is almost visible to the naked eye, and the audience can't help but exclaim when they see it, not to mention how dumb the athlete who catches the ball is!

For the first time in a formal game, Tang Yingjie felt the awkwardness and incompatibility of others being targeted by his style of play.

The point difference between Zhong Yu's lead was getting bigger and bigger, Tang Yingjie was a little miserable to deal with it, but the coaching staff watching the game nodded repeatedly.

The coaching staff considered much more thoughtful than the fans imagined.

Tang Yingjie is young, strong and aggressive, but he is a bit arrogant and too confident in his left hand. The coaching staff simply arranged him and Zhong Yu in the same half area. It is also a test for Xu Lixin. If he really defeated Xu Lixin, meeting Zhong Yu would also give him a taste of the pen-hold grip and reduce his arrogance towards his left hand.

Being too rigid is easy to break, being too proud is not a good thing.

In the end, the result of this game was as expected by the coaching staff. With a big score of 4:1, Zhong Yu won the game and entered the final.

Tang Yingjie, who lost the game a little bit, drooped his head when he left the field, looking a little frustrated, but he glanced at the coaching staff several times, and straightened his waist again after a while.

Although he is proud, he is not stupid. He also understands the good intentions of the coaching staff. The competition is coming soon. If he makes such a low-level mistake in the competition, it will be embarrassing for the national team. There is not so much time now. Instead of letting him feel sorry for himself, it is better to cheer up and adjust his state quickly.

The coaching staff looked at Tang Yingjie's straight back, and nodded with satisfaction. He is a good seedling, very good.

After the two semi-finals, the next thing that everyone is looking forward to is the final between Su Yuan and Zhong Yu.
