The championship competition for the men's team of the 2018-2019 Table Tennis Super League came to an end on February 2, Beijing time, and the Tianjin team with Lin Gaoyuan, Fang Bo and Zhu Linfeng defeated Shanghai Zhongxing 3:0 and lifted the first Dragon Cup in the history of the team. After the game, Tianjin coach Ma Wenge finally released the pressure of a whole season: "After winning the last goal of the last game, I was really excited, and I had a long time to miss this feeling. ”

In the regular season, Tianjin team reached the final four with a fourth place finish, and Shanghai Zhongxing ranked third. In the semi-finals, the two teams defeated the top two rankings, Bayi Nanchang and Shandong Luneng, and successfully met in the final. However, the Tianjin team, which had twice lost 1:3 to Shanghai Zhongxing, was not optimistic before the game, but when it came to the game, the stronger desire to win and the desire for the championship stimulated the morale of the Tianjin players, and the 3:0 score also proved that the Tianjin team was in a better state.
"I didn't win twice against Shanghai in the regular season, and I did a lot of work from my heart and preparation before the game." Lin Gaoyuan said after the game that whether he is behind or ahead on the field, he will play as a big game, "Every ball does not give up, every ball must be fought, winning is an affirmation of himself, but also an affirmation of the team." ”
In fact, the road to the championship of the Tianjin team is not easy, in the 12th round of the regular season, Fang Bo was suspended by the Table Tennis Association for two rounds due to emotional out-of-control kicking over the towel rack, and the club was fined 50,000 yuan. Subsequently, the team lost its sponsor and was forced to change its name to continue to compete in the league. However, coach Ma Wenge did think of winning the championship, but did not expect to win easily with a score of 3:0: "From the beginning of the league to the end of the first stage, we are really bumpy. In the end, it was a small score to squeeze into the top four. This season, every player has been very difficult. (Reporter Yuan Xiaochen)
