The table tennis WTT Oman Challenge is in full swing, and on the evening of March 3, Beijing time, the national table tennis women's singles foreign defense line was once again broken! Following the previous day's 3-0 defeat to Romania's Szokos, another post-00s rising star Chen Yi (17 years old) also lost to another Romanian athlete, that is, world cup singles runner-up Samara (32 years old).
At present, it seems that the Romanian women's team is indeed prepared this time, and their two main forces are remarkable, and the next national table tennis can not be careless!
Samara is one of the best female table tennis players in Europe, and although she is not very famous, her results are first-class - as early as 2012, Samara reached the World Cup singles final, competing with Liu Shiwen for the championship, although she only won the silver medal in the end, but it was already very good.
Relatively speaking, although Chen Yi, born in 2004, has good skills, but has less experience in foreign combat, and the state ups and downs are also very large, last year's World Youth Championships when the cold lost, this time in the face of adult world runners-up celebrities also made a lot of mistakes, and although Samara is an athlete of the same era as Liu Shiwen, the state is really very good!
After the game began, the two sides played a key stage in the first set, and as a result, Chen Yi lost by 2 points and lost 9-11. In the second set, the two killed each other inextricably, and Chen Yi, who was tall and long in arms (it is said that he had 1 meter 77), was actually not afraid of the European's two-sided arc ball routine, and then pulled back a city at 11-9.
However, in the next two sets of games, Chen Yi was a little confused, the attack was weak, the defensive effect was average, and soon lost two consecutive sets 6-11, 8-11, and the big score was 1-3, regrettably stopping the position of the round of 16.

At present, the advantage of Chen Yi's athlete is that her physical fitness is good, her hands and feet are long, and the area of the platform is large, but one of the problems it brings is that some of them rely too much on their physical quality, and the threat of attack is not large, especially the problem of the forehand is more prominent, and I hope that she can learn more from her idol Wang Manyu in this regard.
How to say it, the growth of young players is bound to be full of twists and turns, and we do not talk about heroes based on temporary successes and failures: come on young players! I look forward to your next performance to be more brilliant!
