The WTT Regular Season Challenge in Almaty was held in the women's singles semifinals on September 18 against two Japanese players, Hina Hayata and Miyu Hirano!
In the previous competition, two Chinese women's table tennis players entered the quarterfinals, but in the quarterfinals, the two Players of Chinese Women's Table Tennis lost to the overseas table tennis team, resulting in no One in Chinese women's table tennis reaching the semifinals!
In Japan, two post-00s players, Hina Hayata and Miyu Hirano, played well and successfully met in the semi-finals, which also made the Japanese women's table tennis lock a final place in advance.
Hina Hayata and Miyu Hirano are the same age, both born in 2000, the same age as another Japanese player, Ito Mimachi, and the three are also the three most powerful players in Japanese women's table tennis.
In terms of competition results, Hirano Miyu's results far exceeded that of Hina Hayata, who won the World Cup women's singles championship as early as 2016, and also won the women's singles championship at the Asian Championships in 2017!
However, with the study of Hirano Miyu by Chinese women's table tennis, the threat of Hirano Miyu is no longer there, but in this competition, Hirano Miyu's performance is still very outstanding, she defeated Xu Yi of Chinese women's table tennis!
Although in terms of competition results, Hayata Hina is not as good as Hirano Miyu, but today's Hayata Hina strength is not below Hirano Miyu, and even from the perspective of strength, Hayata Hina has surpassed Hirano Miyu, and has defeated Many teammates such as Ito Mimachi, Ishikawa Yoshizumi and Hirano Miyu many times before!
This time the two will meet in the semi-finals, who can win?
In the first set, Hirano took the lead and soon took the lead in the score, although Hayata Hada had been moving herself, but due to too much of a score, Hirano Miyu won the first set with an 11-7 score!
In the second set, Hirano continued to continue her good form, and Hayata Made too many mistakes, and soon Hirano took an 8-3 lead!
However, Hayata Hina did not give up the game, taking advantage of the change in the landing point to force Hirano Miyu to make a mistake, and Hayata Hina gradually caught up with the score!
After 10 draws, Hina Hayata seized the opportunity to score offensively and win a set back with a 12-10 score!
The fact that she did not win the second set with the advantage of the lead seriously affected Hirano's confidence in the third set, while Hayata Hina, who won back the first set, was morale boosted, and the more courageous the vietnam, the 4-1 lead was achieved at the beginning!
Although Hirano Tried to suppress Hayata Shina through speed, it was a pity that it had little effect, 11-8, Hayata Shina won another set, and the big score was 2-1!
In the fourth set, Hina Hayata played more ferociously, while Miyu Hirano clearly lost her confidence, 11-2! Hina Hayata easily won another set and led 3-1!
In the fifth set, Hirano Made a change in the beginning of the game, while speeding up the rhythm of the first three boards, once taking a 4-2 lead, but Hayata Hina used her strengths in holding the ball, not to fight for the first three boards, but to take the initiative to drag the game into the stalemate stage!
In this way, Hayata Hina gradually reversed the score!
In the end, 11-8, Hina Hayata won the match!
In this game, Hayata Hina's techniques and tactics are obviously more comprehensive than Hirano Miyu, the attack and defense are more balanced, there is no obvious loophole, and Hirano Miyu is just blindly seeking speed, there is no rhythm change, more is to follow hayata Hina's rhythm.
From the current point of view, Hayata's progress is indeed very large, and in the future, it may become a threat to Chinese women's table tennis together with Ito Mimachi!
Japan has its own set of competition mechanisms for Paris Olympic qualifications, and currently in the Paris Olympic standings, Hayata Shina ranks first! It can be said that in the Olympic competition, Hayata Hina has occupied a certain opportunity!
If nothing else, at the Paris Olympics, the Japanese side is likely to have Ito Ando and Hina Hayata participating in the singles, while Hirano Miyu participating in the team competition!
At that time, the Japanese women's table tennis is likely to create greater difficulties for the Chinese women's table tennis, but I believe that the absolute main players of our Chinese women's table tennis will continue to defend the honor of Chinese women's table tennis in the Paris Olympic Games.
