Fan Zhendong once again lost the game and caused controversy! Narrowly defeating the famous South Korean general, Wang Hao hit the nail on the head, and his weaknesses have been exposed

The 2023 Table Tennis Mixed Team World Cup has come to an end, and the national table tennis team defeated the South Korean team 8-1 in the last game, thus winning the championship with 9 consecutive wins, but in this game, Fan Zhendong lost the game again and caused some controversy, and head coach Wang Hao explained Fan Zhendong's sluggish state.

Before the final round, both the national table tennis and the South Korean team had won 8 consecutive victories, which means that the two teams will decide the champion in the final round. Judging from the paper strength of the two teams, the national table tennis is undoubtedly stronger, but this World Cup adopts a short game system, and the national table tennis has frequently lost points in the previous games, especially in the game with the Japanese team, the two world No. 1 Wang Chuqin/Sun Yingsha and Fan Zhendong are out of the game, so the national table tennis still can't be taken lightly. In this game, the head coach of the South Korean team, Zhu Shihyuk, boldly changed the formation, and the mixed doubles sent Ahn Jae-hyun/Shin Yubin to play, the purpose was obviously to catch the national table tennis off guard, but Wang Chuqin/Sun Yingsha did not give the opponent too many opportunities, and soon won 3 games in a row 11-8, 11-8, 11-5, and scored 3 points for the national table tennis. Then in the second set of women's singles, Wang Manyu swept Jin Naying 3-0, and the national table tennis expanded the total score to 6-0, as long as you win two more games, you can end the game.

In the third set of men's singles, the world No. 1 Fan Zhendong of national table tennis played against the Korean star Lee Sang-so, in the first game, the two played fiercely in the opening stage, but Fan Zhendong withstood the pressure and won the first game 11-7, in the second game, Li Shangzhu fought hard, the two sides started a struggle, Li Shangzhu pulled back a game with 12-10, and in the third game, Fan Zhendong was offensive, and soon locked the victory with 11-4, thus helping the national table tennis win 8-1 and successfully won the championship. Although the national table tennis finally won the championship, it is still obvious that Fan Zhendong's state is very poor, Fan Zhendong has lost two games in a row, obviously did not show the strength of the world's No. 1, so that it was questioned by many fans.

Previously, after Fan Zhendong lost to Zhang Benzhihe, he explained the reason for his poor state, mainly because he played poorly and failed to make adjustments according to the actual situation. Head coach Wang Hao pointed out that it is necessary to sum up experience in time and adjust strategies, this is a team competition, every player needs to go all out, Fan Zhendong because of continuous play, psychological pressure is relatively large, so there have been more mistakes, which is also the main reason for Fan Zhendong's recent poor form, and the instability of mentality has become Fan Zhendong's biggest weakness now, and the national table tennis coaching staff needs to find a way to help Fan Zhendong overcome difficulties.
