The fierce battle of the table tennis WTT Czech Republic is in full swing, and the national table tennis women's singles has suffered another fiasco! In the second and third rounds of the main tournament, two young rising stars Wu Yangchen (20 years old) and Zhu Ziyu (16 years old) have been out of the game, and both lost to ni Xialian, the former Chinese world champion and now Luxembourg's main player at the age of 59, and did not qualify for the quarterfinals, which is really incredible.
I think that Ni Xialian's teammates were Cai Zhenhua, Guo Yuehua, Cao Yanhua and others, and even Liu Guoliang estimated that she would have to call out to her aunt when she saw her, and now she can even "teach" the younger generation who is more than forty years younger than herself, and it is indeed a sword that is not old!
Born in 1963, Ni Xialian was the main force of national table tennis in the 1980s, and was already the champion of the World Table Tennis Championships in 1983, and later went abroad to develop and married a Luxembourger, so now she has been settling in the country and has become the core main force of the local table tennis team, winning gold in the European Championships and European Championships many times.
In fact, in 2021, Ni Xialian had a more amazing record, that is, she defeated Wang Yidi, the main athlete of national table tennis: considering that Wu Yangchen and Zhu Ziyu's dan position is much worse than Wang Yidi, it is not surprising that they lost.
In the first round of the women's singles competition, Ni Xialian broke out in a state, facing the impact of 19-year-old South Korean youngster Lee Dae-eun, she directly swept 4-0 to win and win. Then in the second round, Ni Xialian encountered Wu Yangchen, a rising star of national table tennis who is also a straight-slapping style, but the two are good at using granular long glue and two-sided anti-glue, so the style is quite different.
After the game began, the two sides fought fiercely in the first four sets, but after the 2-2 draw, Ni Xialian fully grasped the initiative on the field, and finally locked in the victory 4-2 (11-9, 8-11, 11-7, 9-11, 11-8, 11-7), eliminating the 20-year-old to advance.
In the next third round of the game, Zhu Ziyu, who was 4 years younger than Wu Yangchen, played, and the result was even worse, in the face of the unpredictable long rubber rotation of "Grandma Ni", Xiao Zhu was beaten dizzy, and the final score was unbearable: 5-11, 4-11, 2-11, 4-11 - the average round did not exceed 4 points, it was really bad!
At present, the 10 women's singles players of national table tennis have lost 8 people, of which Ni Xialian has won 2, which is really powerful! So can Qian Tianyi and Xu Yi, who are still on the field, withstand the pressure and strive to win the championship? The suspense is still there, let's cheer them on together!
