During the noon session on the first matchday of the WTT Macau, a total of 4 singles and 2 doubles matches were staged. In the first few games, Wang Xiaotong and Liu Weishan each won a place in the quarterfinals of women's singles, while the men's singles, in the strong competition between Zhou Qihao's Lin Shidong, put themselves in a lower position, completely spelled out Lin Shidong, narrowly defeated Zhou Qihao with a score of 3-2, and took the lead in getting the first eight places in the men's singles. The second eight-place battle is also staged between two powerful young players in the national table tennis, which is also the finale of the noon time on the first match day, and the two sides are Wang Chuqin and Xue Fei. For the two players, the key to victory or defeat will be the question of how to combine fierceness and stability, and how to grasp the key points.
In the first round of the game, the technical and psychological characteristics of the two players can be clearly seen from the course of the game. Wang Chuqin took a 5-0 lead at the beginning of the game, and his attack did look more lethal than Xue Fei, but Wang Chuqin's biggest problem has always been that sometimes he pursues the angle of returning the ball or the quality of the veneer, but it will cause some undue mistakes. In this game, he was also chased by Xue Fei for 5 points in a good situation of 5-0 lead, and the two sides played 5-5. Fortunately, in the second half of the set, especially in the key points at the end of the inning, Wang Chuqin took the initiative to attack, while paying attention to reducing mistakes, helping him to maintain the lead on the field, and after a wave of consecutive scores, he won the first set 11-7. With a game victory in hand, the two sides of the second game of the competition, Wang Chuqin played more released, while his own offensive quality was maintained, but also let Xue Fei only have the ability to fight back without fighting back, Wang Chuqin's line and landing point is to play a high quality, 11-3, he is very easy to go to the next city, get the second set of the game victory, the two sides of the big score to 2-0.
The third set of the game had reached the point where Xue Fei could no longer lose. But he was pulled away by Wang Chuqin at the beginning to 5-2 and 7-5, although Xue Fei called a timeout for himself to adjust in time, and after returning to the field, made some changes between the serve and the serve, but this change did not disrupt Wang Chuqin's rhythm, but he continued to open up the point difference, Wang Chuqin's attack is also more and more hi, the first three boards are also calculated very accurately, there are direct serve scores, there are also control landing points in the first few boards, 11-5, Wang Chuqin and the next city, Thus winning the game with a 3-0 aggregate score and winning the second place in the men's singles quarterfinals.
In general, Wang Chuqin can take Xue Fei lightly through three sets of competition 3-0 (11-7, 11-3 and 11-5), mainly to do you hit you, I hit mine, I believe that his hard power can be thicker than the other side, try not to let himself pursue the quality of the veneer too much and cause undue mistakes, but in the board-to-board connection, that is, the relative speed of the effort, sure enough, this tactic received a good effect. Wang Chuqin kept keeping clean sheets for Xue Fei, and also used such a complete victory to lay the foundation for himself to play the next game. In Wang Chuqin's own words, everyone's strength is relatively close, and each round of the game may encounter many difficulties, the most important thing is to play smoothly, do not want to win or lose too much, and strive to go further with a normal heart. Let us once again congratulate Wang Chuqin and hope that he will play better in the later matches. I also hope that everyone will pay attention to the other first round matches in the evening time, and let us continue to cheer for the girls and boys of the national table tennis.
