On January 20, Beijing time, if the peak duel on the first day of the WTT Macau Championship, the doubles is obviously Ma Long with Qian Tianyi to challenge Sun Yingsha and Wang Chuqin, then the real peak confrontation of singles is obviously Chen Meng vs Du Kaixuan, because Du Kaixuan is the strongest external opponent that the entire Chinese table tennis team can face in this WTT Macau Championships, if Du Kaixuan is eliminated, then no one can pose a threat to the Chinese team in all the remaining matches.
Now, Du Kaixuan was personally sent away by Chen Meng, Chen Meng also successfully avenged Wang Manyu, just at the end of 2021, when the WTT Singapore Finals were held, Wang Manyu lost to Du Kaixuan in the first round of 0-3, and Du Kaixuan's match showed not only the ability to fight, but more importantly, the long stage holding is also good, and the style of play is very domineering, and the big opening and closing is not inferior to Wang Manyu, especially the holding ability is also very strong. And this game Du Kaixuan proved that her previous elimination of Wang Manyu was not by luck, or by strength, she once forced Chen Meng into the decider, but after entering the desperate situation, Chen Meng suddenly rebounded, but also showed that she was stronger than Wang Manyu.
At that time, when Wang Manyu lost Du Kaixuan, the loss was very crisp, one 11:6, two 11:7, the decider was also 11:7, basically did not resist much, and then directly collapsed. In this game, the two sides can be said to be riding on a roller coaster, Chen Meng won it easily and smoothly in the first set 11:8, but In the second set Du Kaixuan returned Chen Meng a 7:11. The key point of the 3rd set Chen Meng was once 10:6 to achieve a big score lead, seeing that he was about to take it in advance, Du Kaixuan suddenly threatened, at this time, after chasing 2 points, Chen Meng chose to call a timeout, but the suspension did not stabilize, Du Kaixuan actually relied on his big heart ability, chased the game to 10:10. At the critical moment, Chen Meng suddenly adjusted, although he lost 4 innings in a row, Chen Meng still forcibly stabilized the game, taking another set at 12:10, and the two sides played 2-1.
The 4th set was more exciting and intense, Chen Meng chased the score to 11:11 in a row after falling behind the opposite three innings first, although Chen Meng finally lost 11:13 in this round, but her big heart ability was still exhausted. Losing 4 consecutive innings in the 2nd innings can stabilize the back play, and in the 4th inning, he can chase the game to 11 draws when he is behind 3 innings, which is a manifestation of Chen Meng's big heart. And in the 5th set of the decider, the first 4 innings experienced a roller coaster, the case of Chen Meng's mentality at this time is some fluctuations, the result of her last game suddenly stormed, the more fierce the fight, 11:2 directly put Du Kaixuan's mentality to collapse, Du Kaixuan in the last game has realized that he has no way to compete with Chen Meng, surrendered his weapons in advance.
This is the biggest gap between Chen Meng and Wang Manyu now. Why was she able to avenge Wang Manyu in this game? Because Chen Meng's mentality is more stable, she has encountered difficult situations, and even encountered the situation of being chased by the opponent with 4 innings points, but I can still stabilize my mentality. Including playing the decider in the first round, if she loses, she will have a round of travel, Chen Meng still played 11:2 steadily, which is the most intuitive embodiment of her super psychological quality. And Wang Manyu is indeed fierce enough to fight in the game, but sometimes her mentality is still relatively volatile and not stable enough, which is why she will lose to Du Kaixuan before a round of travel.
The bigger focus is on this game, Liu Guoliang and Qin Zhijian personally came to the sidelines to watch the game, Li Falcon did not accompany the team this time, so they are the two people who really have the right to speak in the national table tennis, and the two of them watched Chen Meng complete the reversal. In the process of the game, it can also be seen that seeing Chen Meng's last innings exploded Du Kaixuan, Liu Guoliang's expression also seemed to be somewhat meaningful, both some relief and some unexpected, did not expect Chen Meng's anti-pressure ability to be so strong. Because before Chen Meng said that after the arrival of my era, he was criticized and stopped by Liu Guoliang, and was forced to change his mouth, but now Liu Guoliang himself may not have thought that Chen Meng can continue to evolve and avenge Wang Manyu.
