The 2022 Snooker German Masters ended its second matchday, and due to the venue and domestic broadcast, the tournament did not receive as much attention as at the beginning of the tournament, but this did not affect the players' wonderful performances.
Earlier in the first day of the game, the Chinese snooker legion took the lead in three, Zhao Xintong and Zhou Yuelong joined hands to advance, Zhang Anda was helplessly eliminated by Brechel, and the performance of the Chinese legion on the second day of the game can be said to be both happy and worried.
The first is Yan Bingtao, who has not been seen for a long time, in the game against "Brother Potato" Gilbert, Yan Bingtao won two consecutive sets in a 3:3 situation and finally entered the round of the tournament 5:3 with no danger, and the young fan Zhengyi was even rarer to beat Highfield in a hundred states.
What's more interesting is that Fan Zhengyi's promotion day happened to be his birthday, and it was also very meaningful to use a victory as a gift on his birthday night, and Fan Zhengyi's girlfriend also made a quick movement after the game, and sweetly praised Fan Zhengyi for getting better and better.
Another Chinese teenager, Lu Haotian, was not so lucky, facing the challenge of top player Mark Allen, Lu Haotian did not have any counter-strength in the whole game, and Allen even won more than 100 consecutive times with a score of 5:1 to advance to the round of sixteen.
Due to the scheduling of the game, the showdown of the round of sixteen was also officially launched later in the day, and Zhou Yuelong, who easily defeated McGill in the first round, met Judd Trump, the second in the world, and had to lament the gap in strength Zhou Yuelong did not get any chance in the whole game and finally stopped in the round of sixteen with a 0:5 clean sheet.
And Zhao Xintong's performance made domestic fans have some comfort, in the sixteen rounds against Tom Ford, Zhao Xintong continued his fiery state, successively blasted high scores and fierce attacks also completely "confused" Fude, and finally won easily 5:1 to advance to the quarterfinals.
After advancing to the quarterfinals, Zhao Xintong will stage a peak duel with Trump, and the two super quasi-matching players are bound to bring an offensive battle, although the comprehensive strength trump is fully dominant, but snooker star McManus believes that Zhao Xintong will defeat all players.
Although the German Masters were not played in the United Kingdom, the British media always paid attention to the event, and Manus, who retired last season and turned into a commentator, was more convinced in the program that Zhao Xintong had the strength to defeat a strong opponent after watching the first round of matches.
Manus said: Zhao Xintong's current psychological quality and self-confidence have been ahead of most players, he has always shown such ease and confidence, even if he faces a player of historical level like Mark Williams in the first round, he does not have the slightest stage fright, completely in his own rhythm.
Zhao Xintong's accuracy is really too terrible, this is the advantage he has in the game, he will use this advantage to crush the opponent's defensive strategy, if Zhao Xintong himself strengthens the defense in the future, then he will really enter the ranks of top superstars.
I have to say that since Zhao Xintong won the Championship, more and more people in the British media have begun to look better from the original no-look for the better, of course, I still hope that Zhao Xintong can stick to his heart and not be disturbed by external factors, and use his own strength to win his own honor.
