Russian Orenburg club is the european table tennis men's team giants, the team in the 2021/2022 season has 3 of the world's top 10 men's singles masters, such a lineup in the world clubs are luxurious, just when Orenburg reached the final of this season's Champions League, was announced by the European Table Tennis Federation to be banned, so Calderano, Lin Yunru and Ochalov have not yet played, they are judged to be runners-up, Germany's Düsseldorf won the championship without a fight. Ochalov has suffered consecutive blows recently, suffering from injuries after the Tokyo Olympics, early termination after the Champions League loss, and the danger of decline in the world rankings, facing many difficulties in the Paris cycle, the world men's singles 7th.
Russia's Orenburg Club brings together brazil's Calderano, ranked no. 6, Chinese Taipei youngster Lin Yunru, who is ranked no. 6, and German world champion Ochalov, who is ranked No. 7, all three of which are the main opponents of national table tennis in the past two Olympic cycles. Although Caldrano has never won a medal in the World Cup, World Championships and Olympic Games, he has won many championships in open and continental competitions, and his points have increased rapidly. Men's singles ranking has also become the world's 3rd after Fan Zhendong and Ma Long.Lin Yunru of Chinese Taipei broke into the men's singles top 4 at the Tokyo Olympic Games, becoming the first post-00s finalist in the history of the Olympic men's singles, mixed doubles and Zheng Yijing are currently ranked No. 1 in the world.
The Champions League championship with Orenburg is the German club Düsseldorf, the main force of the team Pol because of the infection with the new crown last year, basically did not participate, the main German Chinese straight board Qiu party carried the banner, in the Bundesliga and Champions League to show excellent state, Sweden's Carlberg and Karlsson as the main force of the team, but also the strength of the points, but the overall strength of Düsseldorf is still difficult to match The strong lineup of Orenburg, it is more fortunate that the European Table Tennis Federation has taken measures to ban russian clubs, Let Germany's Düsseldorf win the championship directly.
Perhaps because the impact of the Champions League suspension was too great, coupled with the serious impact of Ochalov's knee injury, he chose to terminate his contract with the club early, and it is more likely to stay in the German league next season to heal the injury and take care of his family. Ochalov is 34 years old this year, is the leader of German table tennis, his performance in the Paris cycle, or directly determine the future performance of the German men's team in the Paris Olympic Games, whether it can enter the Olympic men's team final again, depends on the veteran's play. Recently, due to Ocharov's consecutive absences from the World Table Tennis Championships, the World Cup Finals and the Grand Slam tournament in Singapore, the world ranking has dropped from the original 6th to 7th, and if he continues to miss the international arena, the world ranking is in danger of falling out of the top 10.
Ocharov has not won a singles medal at the World Championships, but compared with his predecessor Pol, he has reached the men's singles semi-finals in the 2012 London Olympic Games and the 2021 Tokyo Olympic Games, and won 2 bronze medals, the Olympic Games are the best of foreign rivals, he is currently targeting the Paris Olympic Games, when the 36-year-old Ochalov is still a major opponent of national table tennis.
