On February 27, a retirement ceremony was held for Mizutani Hayabusa during the finale of the T-League regular season.
Yosuke Kurashima, Masaharu Yoshimura, Tomokazu Zhang and others attended the retirement ceremony. Wearing the "No. 0" jersey, Mizutani Falcon walked around the ping-pong court while the rest of the team threw Mizutani Hayabusa into the air.
Regarding retirement, Mizutani Hayabusa said: "There is nothing to be nostalgic about. ”
Hayabusa Mizutani had long mentioned retiring. At last year's Tokyo Olympics, Hayabusa Mizutani and Mimachi Ito won the mixed doubles gold medal and the bronze medal in the men's team along with Takashi Niwa and Tomokazu Chang. He also won a bronze medal in men's singles and a silver medal in men's teams at the 2016 Rio Olympics. Mizutani Hayabusa's playing career was quite perfect, creating the history of Japanese table tennis. So much so that the Japanese media blew Mizutani Falcon as the first person in the table tennis world, which became a joke at that time.
Shortly after winning the mixed doubles gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics, Hayabusa Mizutani announced that he was retiring. After a few months, the 32-year-old Mizutani Hayabusa finally officially retired.
The three veterans of the international table tennis world sent their blessings.
German table tennis star Bohr, 41, blessed: "Your snoring was terrible when you were a teammate in Dussay. I am very sad about your retirement. I'm really going to be lonely. I sincerely respect your achievements as a player. The most important thing is that I respect your character, it's great. I sincerely wish you the best of luck in the future. ”
Pol has a high opinion of the Mizutani Falcon. The evaluation is so high, but also the joke of the water valley hayabusa, it seems that the relationship was good when I was a teammate before.
Ocharov, a German who is eight months older than Mizutani Falcon, blessed: "When you were 10 years old, I started when I was 11 years old, and I competed in the competition. To me you are the best Japanese player of all time. At the 2019 Swedish Open, you said 'Dima, I'll prove to the world the strength of mixed doubles', and two years later you became an Olympic champion. You have proved to the world. Best wishes! ”
Malone, who is more than a month younger than Ochalov, also sent blessings to Mizutani Falcon. Malone said, "Mizutani, I heard that you are going to have a retirement ceremony, and as an athlete I understand and respect your decision." The two of us grew up together and have always competed and respected each other. ”
It is also said that Mizutani Falcon, Malone and Ocharov are about the same age, only a few months apart. And they are all good players, and they have met many times in international competitions.
Malone's words behind him are a bit heartfelt. "All the time you've been working hard for your dreams, you've been fighting for your dreams, and you've ended up winning olympic gold medals. But I don't know if you have the biggest regret of your career that you haven't beaten me? But table tennis is only a part of life, and I wish you all the best in the future. ”
Malone's words are somewhat ridiculous. As the athlete who has won the most world championships in table tennis, Malone has lost too many players to him. It's just that Mizutani Hayabusa, as the most successful athlete in Japanese men's table tennis, has never won Ma Long, and it is estimated that he will feel very sorry, but he has no choice. I want to win but I can't always win, and that taste is very uncomfortable.
Also feeling this way is Ochalov. As the top male table tennis player in the international table tennis world, Ocharov has played against Malone many times and has never won Against Malone. In order to feel the victory of Malone, I had to let my wife wear Malone's clothes. He wins his wife again, looking for the feeling of indirectly "winning" Malone.
Netizens read Ma Long's words, couldn't help but laugh, and talked about it. "Capture the Falcon!"
"Hahahahaha, the Dragons are good to lose, I like it."
"The Dragon Team deserves to be you, and the Falcons have all been taken by you."
"Dragon Team, you're so hard-hearted."
"Marlon later said to Ocha: Isn't the most regrettable thing in your life that you failed to defeat me?"
