Table tennis WTT Grand Slam fierce battle is in full swing, Beijing time on the evening of March 12, another world champion was eliminated, "round of travel" out, she is the former national table tennis main force, now Luxembourg player Ni Xialian, and the 58-year-old she is a 0-3 defeat to the 23-year-old active national table tennis sparring player, known as "Ito Mimachi nemesis" He Zhuojia.
Interestingly, Ni Xialian is a straight-shot long rubber playing player, and He Zhuojia is a horizontal long rubber playing player, the ball path of both of them is very strange, and the game scene is a bit like a "wild ball" battle between amateurs, which is indeed quite interesting. Although she lost the game, Ni Xialian's ability to race at the age of 58 is already very remarkable, and it is also worthy of our praise!
Ni Xialian is more familiar to everyone, the national table tennis player in the 80s, once and Cai Zhenhua and other people are teammates, a generation higher than Liu Guoliang, Kong Linghui and other people, after going abroad has been developing in Luxembourg, last year even defeated the national table tennis main force Wang Yidi, and later won the women's doubles bronze medal in the World Table Tennis Championships, which is breathtaking.
He Zhuojia is a special playing sparring partner in the team, and has won 5 consecutive wins against Ito Mimakoto unbeaten, 1 more than Chen Meng, which can indeed be called the opponent's nemesis. Since she and Ni Xialian are both long glue playing athletes, on the one hand, everyone wants to see how the two will end up "fighting monsters with monsters", and on the other hand, they also want to see how He Zhuojia performs against players from foreign associations other than Ito Mimachi.
After the game began, Ni Xialian played very badly in the first set, basically did not play her own strengths, and then lost 4-11 - it is no wonder that she usually deals with other athletes by relying on long glue to make opponents uncomfortable, but He Zhuojia herself is a long glue play, which is very familiar.
But in turn, although Ni Xialian also adapted to He Zhuojia's ball path, her technical loopholes as a direct shooting player were originally greater, coupled with the fact that there was no other party young, so it was normal for all aspects to be better than He Zhuojia.
In the second set of the game, He Zhuojia continued to exert his strength, and as a result, he went to the next city at 11-7, and the big score of 2-0 led ni Xialian into a desperate situation. However, the veteran is experienced in the end, the third set Ni Xialian was not discouraged, calmly and calmly bit the score, looking at the imminent recapture of a city, but unfortunately there was still weakness at the last moment, and finally lost the whole game 9-11, and had no chance to get promoted.
However, as mentioned before, Ni Xialian can still win medals at the World Table Tennis Championships at the age of 58, and play back and forth with her daughters and granddaughters in the first-line arena. Finally, congratulations to He Zhuojia, but also to the "evergreen tree" Ni Xialian salute: both are good!
