National Table Tennis has 6 foreign battles today! Face off against the world champion and third place, facing the famous player (with schedule)
On June 13, Beijing time, the table tennis WTT Nigeria tournament is about to usher in the second match day of battle. In the previous day's showdown, the national table tennis won the first battle, 20-year-old Li Yake swept Ghana's Quabi 3-0, ushering in a hearty victory for the team, but the difficulty of the second day of the match is about to increase significantly.
According to the arrangement, today the national table tennis will usher in six foreign battle tests, against South Korea and other strong team players, including world champion Liang Xiayin, world third place Denut and others, please see below for detailed battle conditions and the latest schedule.
A total of 19 athletes signed up for this Nigerian national table tennis competition, which looks huge, but the actual combat effectiveness is not the top, of which 9 only participate in doubles events, and the remaining 10 people play singles, the lineup of male players is okay, but female players are low-ranked or even unranked athletes, so all have to play qualifiers.
In the match on June 12, Li Yake, who has no world ranking but once defeated Olympic champion Wang Manyu, played steadily, sweeping Ghanaian veteran Quabi 11-3, 11-4, 11-4, and other national table tennis players were first-round byes and did not participate in the battle.
The most striking game on June 13 was the battle between Yang Yiyun and Liang Xiayin at 18:35 p.m., the latter was an old friend of Guoping, and at the 2015 Suzhou World Table Tennis Championships, he was paired with Xu Xin to participate in the mixed doubles event and won the gold medal, thus becoming the only person in the current Korean table tennis team to have a world championship title.
However, in recent years, Liang Xiayin's state has been very average, and he is known as the weakest link in the world championship along with Chinese Taipei's Chen Jianan, so even if Yang Yiyun is not very strong, it may not be able to bring down this unfamous opponent.
Before playing with Liang Xiayin, Li Yake and Guo Yuhan will face Luxembourg's Drutter (who once won the third place in the women's doubles of the World Table Tennis Championships with Ni Xialian and another Korean athlete, Yoon Hyo-bin, at 18:00, and the strength of these two opponents is not below Liang Xiayin, perhaps more threatening than Liang Xiayin, who has the title of world champion, and is worthy of the attention of the Chinese team!
At 20:55, Zhou Kai/He Zhuojia appeared to face the Ghanaian pair Ratti/Quabbi; At 22:00, Wang Xiaotong faced English athlete Huo Tingting; At 22:35, Zang Xiaotong will face Nigeria's Ajibique, and it should not be difficult to advance if he plays normally.
So can the national table tennis maintain a complete victory in foreign battles on the second day? Let's cheer for the Chinese team together!
