The latest report of the World Table Tennis Championships: 3-0! Tomokazu Zhang hit 11-1 in his debut, and the Japanese men's team won a big victory

On February 17, 2024, the Busan World Table Tennis Championships entered the second day of competition, and the Japanese men's team won easily 3-0, winning the Czech team in the same group.

The Japanese team is a strong contender for medals, and has long been the main opponent of national table tennis, still remembering the Chengdu World Table Tennis Championships, Zhang Benzhi and Fan Zhendong and Wang Chuqin won in a row, showing a strong level of competition, but this time they have too many situations, such as Hayasuke Togami has a fever and failed to play, and there are variables whether he can play later.

In the first round of the men's team group stage, the Japanese team won without a fight, the Nigerian team continued to have accidents, Aruna had food poisoning and had withdrawn, Abioton's flight was delayed, and only Omotayo was present, which is very rare, the International Table Tennis Federation ruled that Japan 3-0 Nigeria, which Zhang Ben Tomokazu regretted, he subjectively still hopes to play more games and strive to adjust to the best condition.

In the second round against the Czech Republic, the difference in strength was very obvious, the Japanese team sent Tomokazu Zhangmoto, Shinozuka Daito, Matsushima Terukor, and the Czech team was Polanski, Lubomir, Simon Belik, of which Polanski was relatively difficult, Hayasuke Togami was unwell and continued to be absent, Tanaka Yutai was originally scheduled to play, but now it is replaced by newcomer Matsushima Teruku, and it is normal for the head coach to choose to rotate the lineup.

Tomokazu Zhang defeated Polanski 3-1, this was his debut in this tournament, the first two games blasted 11-5, 11-1, then Polanski pulled back a game 12-10, in the fourth game Tomokazu Zhang was not to be outdone, sealed the victory 11-8, Shinozuka Daiden beat Lubomir 3-0, 11-5, 11-4 easily won, Shinozuka Daito is now the third member of the Japanese men's team, the result is indeed stable.

Matsushima Terukorna swept Simon Belik 3-0, Matsushima Terukorn was very active during this time, as a three-single, undoubtedly very threatening, facing the average level of Simon Belik, 11-2, 11-6, 11-7 to end the game, Japan 3-0 Czech Republic, got the second victory in the group stage, and then against Chinese Taipei, Zhang Ben Tomokazu and Lin Yunru competed, fighting for the top spot in the group is very interesting.

At the same time, Sweden 3-0 Puerto Rico, also continued the winning streak, Falke 3-0 defeated Afanadore, Carlberg defeated Gonzalez 3-0, Karlsson 3-2 reversal Naranjo, Moregard rested, Karlsson's state was far less than expected, almost lost to the young player and lost points, so it seems that Moregard, Carlberg, Falke is safer.
