Mimato Ito is out of the game! After losing six rounds to a 20-year-old who may lose to the Olympics next year

On the afternoon of May 6, Beijing time, the fourth Olympic trials of Japanese table tennis once again broke out a big upset, Olympic champion Mimato Ito lost six games, and lost 2-4 to 20-year-old Miyu Nagasaki, stopping at the women's singles round of 16.

In the past year or so, Ito Mimai has repeatedly lost to the young players in the Japanese team, including Miyu Nagasaki, Miyu Kihara, Miwa Changmoto, Saki Yokoi and others, but I didn't expect to fall under the photograph of Miyu Nagasaki this time, and the opponent is worthy of being an athlete who has ranked the world number one in women's doubles and won the national table tennis world champion Zhu Yuling twice!

Speaking of Misei Ito's recent performance, it is indeed difficult to say, although she has the aura of an Olympic champion on her head, and is now less than 23 years old, but her competitiveness has been significantly declining, it is difficult to break through the main defense line of the national table tennis in foreign wars, and the civil war has also lost continuously, the current Olympic points only rank fourth in the team, and if you do not work hard, you may lose next year's Paris Olympics.

Relatively speaking, Nagasaki's performance in recent years has not been as conspicuous as around 2019, and she has missed many development opportunities, but even so, her skills and psychology are constantly maturing, and this time it has dealt a heavy blow to the Olympic champion.

After the start of the match, Ito did not play well, losing twice on key points, losing 10-12 in the first game, and then collapsed 9-11 in the second game, and the big score quickly fell behind 0-2.

In the face of the adverse situation, Ito began to rise to power in the third game, winning 11-6 to win Ichijo, and then finally biting the key point in the fourth game, narrowly winning 11-9, the two sides tied and returned to the same running line, at this time many fans thought that with Ito's strength, it was completely possible to achieve a big turnaround - but she disappointed her fans.

In the fifth game, Ito Mimai almost routed, and soon lost 4-11, being forced into a cornered situation by Miyu Nagasaki. In the sixth game, Mimato Ito still did not find a feeling, and finally lost the entire match 5-11 and did not advance to the quarterfinals.

At present, it seems that Ito Mimai has indeed reached a bottleneck period in her career, as a raw rubber particle fast attack player, her wins often have to be based on others are not familiar with herself, but as long as the game is played more, sooner or later the opponent will figure out the routine, so Zhang Yining once asserted that Ito's playing style has an upper limit, which is indeed a very accurate judgment.
