On September 29, Beijing time, the 1/4 final of the men's team badminton competition of the 19th Hangzhou Asian Games in 2023 continued.
Zhou Tiancheng 24-22, 21-11 Shi Yuqi
The record is 6-5, with the most recent meeting coming in the second round of the Malaysian Open Super1000 at the beginning of the year, losing 23-21, 22-24, 18-21, 18-21 by world No. 6 Shi Yuqi. This showdown, if only from the perspective of the audience, is extremely exciting, there are magical saves and counterattacks, the two are not false and snakes, they are straight and crisp, and the pace of attack and defense is fast. Zhou Tiancheng also no longer seeks to play the "actor-level" performance of the three games, but accelerates at the beginning, especially the forehand killing is almost empty, which is also what Shi Yuqi fears in the second game, so he seeks more to push the bottom line of the backcourt, but unfortunately the mistakes have increased, so that the opening game once trailed 1-7.
Shi Yuqi still played his own characteristics, the forehand in the top area is still sharp, and the front of the net is even more dominant, helpless Zhou Tiancheng's defense rate is extremely high, Shi Yuqi, who has been unable to attack for a long time, gradually lacks patience, and loses three points in a row at the key moment of the second game, starting from Zhou Tiancheng's passive return ball in front of the net, if this ball score will greatly enhance Shi Yuqi's morale, after all, it is a fairy ball. Unfortunately, things backfired, and Shi Yuqi made consecutive mistakes, so that Zhou Tiancheng took the lead in scoring 18 points.
Lee Cheuk-yao 21-15, 20-22, 21-11 Naraoka Kōdai
World No. 3 Kō Naraoka, who missed the last round, may be his last match at this Asian Games, after all, the strength of Kanta Tokoyama and Kenta Nishimoto is not bad.
The record of the two sides reached 1-2, and Lee Cheuk-yiu ended a two-game losing streak, both of which had been swept before.
Jin Ting 21-15, 21-17 Quan Yi Chen
Quan Yichen won the previous world number two Li Zijia in the last game, but faced the current world second Jinting has few ways to suffer, suffered a complete defeat, and the record of the two sides has reached 2-1, but the previous meeting was in 2016.
Kang Min-hyuk/Seo Seung-jae 11-21, 24-22, 21-17 reverse Alfian/Adianto
The match between the Xinke World Championship and the world number one, if it is the double A who won the Super1000 championship twice at the beginning of the year, may have a better chance of winning, but since the World Championships and China Badminton Open Super1000 have played two consecutive stops and one round, the competitive state has not been as good as at the beginning, and it is unexpected that it can fight to the tiebreaker, but it takes more than 80 minutes. The record of the two sides is 4-3, after the most recent meeting was at the 2023 Australian Open Super500, where Seo Seung-jae/Kang Min-hyuk advanced to the semifinals 21-16, 15+21, 21-14.
Liang Weihang/Wang Chang 21-17, 21-19 Li Yang/Wang Qilin
This should be the most focused match Liang Wang has ever had, especially under the pressure of Shi Yuqi's first-set defeat and China's 1-0 down, not only Wang Chang's level is online, but even Liang Weihang rarely makes mistakes, and the two took the set steadily, despite the constant shouting of Xinco Olympic champion Wang Qilin without the slightest disturbance. The winning record is 1-1, after losing 2-1 at the 2023 Asian Championship and losing 8-21 in the tiebreaker.
Li Shifeng 21-14, 21-12 Wang Ziwei
The record of the two sides is 3-1, after the most recent meeting was at the 2023 World Championships, where Li Shifeng reached the round of 16 15-21 and 14-21. In this confrontation, Li Shifeng took the initiative, especially stealing the backfield. Wang Ziwei is no longer in the form of courage in the World Championships, and his competitive state is average.
China led 2-1 before Tuou played against the mix-up duo of Lu Jingyao / Ye Hongwei. #I'm chasing the Asian Games in the headlines#
