In the final of the women's team of the Table Tennis Super League, Shandong Luneng Club led by Wang Manyu faced the challenge of the Shenzhen Club led by Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng, which attracted the attention of fans. Wang Manyu and Sun Yingsha played each other in the singles match, which has always been the most important highlight of the Table Tennis Super League. Because every time the two of them play each other, they bring fans a different viewing experience, and these two people can also be called lifelong enemies.
Because two people have been fighting since childhood, they are not only familiar with each other, but also known as Gemini. The battle between these two can also be called the top competition in table tennis, no less than a final between major tournaments. The two can't play each other until they reach the final, and it's rare to see the two meet frequently on the international stage.
But in the table tennis super arena, the two can play each other as long as they reach the finals, which still satisfies the wishes of many fans. Wang Manyu is indeed Sun Yingsha's rare opponent, although some fans do not recognize Wang Manyu's strength, but they also know in their hearts that only by defeating Wang Manyu can Sun Yingsha reflect the value of her strength.
In the table tennis league in the first half of this year, Wang Manyu defeated Sun Yingsha, and this final is also the best opportunity for Sun Yingsha to overtake. Wang Manyu expressed fatigue before the start of the table tennis Super League, and she also had a lack of adaptability in the game. This is all after the semifinals of the Table Tennis Super League, Wang Manyu's own summary.
And no matter which opponent Sun Yingsha faces this time, she swept the opponent, and the stability of the game was maintained very well. The balance of victory and defeat between the two sides is indeed on Sun Yingsha's side, and Sun Yingsha has gradually regained her confidence after winning the finals, which is conducive to her performance in the women's team finals.
This time, Sun Yingsha still fought at home, occupying the right time and place. This year's Table Tennis Super League is indeed Sun Yingsha's best chance to win the championship, since the 2020 Table Tennis Super League, Sun Yingsha's Shenzhen University Club has won the runner-up for two consecutive years, each time it is a step away, but every time it is always a little worse.
Some fans believe that this has something to do with the formation of the Shenzhen University Club. In 2020, the Shenzhen University Club was able to win the championship in the Table Tennis Super League because it has Sun Yingsha, Wang Yidi, and Chen Meng, the three main national table tennis players. But in the 2021 Table Tennis Super League, the three of them went to three different clubs, so that the Shenzhen University Club could only rely on Sun Yingsha to support herself.
Although Chen Meng returned to Shenzhen University Club last year, there is a gap between the overall strength and Shandong Luneng Club. And through Li Yake's defeat of Chen Meng, fans have a new evaluation of Chen Meng's strength. In the eyes of fans, the Shenzhen University Club's lineup cannot be ranked by seniority, so it is difficult to win the championship.
You can't continue to play in important games just because some players are veterans, and it's no wonder that Shenzhen University Club is always one step away from winning the championship. Professional clubs should take the real quality of the players as an important criterion for their appearance, and only then can the club achieve good results and prosper for a long time.
Sun Yingsha has a strong adaptability against Wang Manyu, although Wang Manyu's adaptability is relatively weak, but his technical strength is relatively good. This game depends on what kind of tactics Wang Manyu adopts to restrict Sun Yingsha, if he still adopts the method of restricting the ball in the table like in the first stage, does not directly form a hold with Sun Yingsha, and looks for opportunities to take the initiative to attack, then Wang Manyu will still be invincible.
In fact, as long as Wang Manyu does not form a near-stage confrontation with Sun Yingsha, he can win. Once caught in the close stage attack, this is Sun Yingsha's best offensive rhythm, not only Wang Manyu is difficult to win, but other players are also difficult to win. However, Wang Manyu does have a stubbornness, and often fights with the main force of national table tennis near Taiwan.
If Wang Manyu continues to fight near the stage in this game, he may not be able to win a game, so what kind of tactics the player adopts is particularly crucial. And will Chen Meng fight against Chen Xingtong? This is also what fans are more concerned about.
As long as Chen Meng plays, he will definitely participate in the singles competition. Kuo Man can completely replace Chen Meng in singles, and with Chen Meng's personality, he must certainly play a central role in this final. And Chen Xingtong has long been ready to play against Chen Meng, and Chen Xingtong has been questioned by fans for a period of time.
Chen Xingtong in the semifinals was defeated by young player Chen Yi, and the women's team final was a game for Chen Xingtong, and she had to prove herself in order to dispel fans' doubts about her. Chen Xingtong still has a certain amount of hard power, and the reason why Chen Meng chooses Chen Xingtong in every final is because the two have relatively close ball styles.
If Chen Meng is sure of Wang Manyu, he will play in the first singles, and Chen Xingtong and Chen Meng will play in a five-five match. Whether the two are playing in doubles or singles, they are evenly divided. Chen Xingtong tried his best to break through Chen Meng in the singles game, and in the first round of this year's two sides, Chen Xingtong was chased by Chen Meng for three games in a row when he was leading by a large score.
This year's Chen Xingtong does not seem to have defeated Chen Meng, and this table tennis Super League is the last chance of this year. If he was still defeated by Chen Meng, then Chen Xingtong would be questioned even more. This time, Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng also have the pressure to win the championship in their home games, and how to convert the pressure into motivation is particularly crucial.
Shenzhen University Club is also very eager to win the league title, but Shandong Luneng Club does appear more confident. Who will be the real winner of this match? However, Sun Yingsha vs. Wang Manyu, and Chen Meng vs. Chen Xingtong are indeed the best formations, so it's no wonder that they often don't change the lineup easily.
