Competition focus
Men's doubles is a project with relatively small advantages in national table tennis in recent years, and has lost foreign battles many times, even including the 2021 Houston World Table Tennis Championships, fortunately won the gold medal in the 2023 Durban World Table Tennis Championships, but there are still many powerful combinations in foreign associations, so this Asian Games does not dare to underestimate any opponent, but finally dropped the chain.
Match Review
Fan Zhendong/Wang Chuqin 3-0 Huang Zhenting/He Junjie: The suspense of this match is not very large, the strength of the national table tennis combination is obviously stronger than the Hong Kong pair, after all, Fan Zhendong/Wang Chuqin is the men's doubles champion of the World Championships, so the two quickly won 11-2, 11-5, 11-7 without encountering too many difficulties.
Lin Yunru/Zhuang Zhiyuan 3-2 Liang Jingkun/Lin Gaoyuan: The process and result of this ball are very surprising, because from the recent results, everyone thinks that the national table tennis combination is obviously stronger than the Chinese Taipei pairing, and Liang Jingkun/Lin Gaoyuan did win 11-6, 11-7 victory in the first game, but in the third game, there were frequent mistakes after leading, and the result was 8-11.
In the fourth game, the morale of Lin Yunru/Zhuang Zhiyuan increased significantly, and they lost 6-11 again, and the game was dragged into a tiebreaker. In the fifth game battle, Liang Jingkun/Lin Gaoyuan once had the advantage, but they dropped the line while fighting, and finally lost the entire game 8-11, thus creating the first loss tragedy of National Table Tennis in this Asian Games, which is a pity!
Zhang Yuzhen/Lin Zhongxun 3-2 Takar/Manash: As the current world's No. 1 men's doubles team, Zhang Yuzhen/Lin Zhongxun almost didn't survive this ball, won 11-8 in the first game, lost 7-11 in the second game, won 12-10 in the third game and lost 6-11 in the fourth game, and the tiebreaker was finally reversed until the 9th point, and finally passed 11-9, not easy!
Alamyan Brothers 3-0 and Chuan Ruiji/Panasonic Daixing: This match is completely "one-sided", the Alamyan brothers swept the Japanese team 11-6, 11-8, 11-5 and finally "Dumiao" advanced - interestingly, Iranian athletes have defeated Japanese players many times recently, this time the men's doubles won another game, next will challenge Fan Zhendong/Wang Chuqin, let's cheer for the Chinese team together!
