On March 27, 2024, the table tennis Incheon Championship broke out, the newcomer of the South Korean team advanced to the round of 16, Wu Huicheng eliminated the Egyptian star Asal 3-2, and then faced Zhang Ben Zhihe and Zhuang Zhiyuan The winner, if nothing else, it is Wu Huicheng against Zhang Ben Zhihe.
Wu Huicheng is the hope star of the South Korean team, trained by the coaching staff, qualified by the wild card at home, and even surpassed Cho Dae-sung in the number of appearances during this time, second only to Jang Woo-jin, Lim Jong-hoon, Lee Sang-so, Ahn Jae-hyun, the 17-year-old belongs to the potential main force of the next cycle, although the ranking is not high, but he has a great background, his father is Wu Sang-yin, I believe everyone is no stranger.
This time the opponent is not simple, Asal is a representative of the African table tennis world, and Aruna has a good relationship with each other, has defeated Zhang Benzhihe and other famous players, its competitive level is self-evident, just before the Singapore Grand Slam, Asal performance eye-catching, impressed many fans, the world ranking rose to 17th, Wu Huicheng after all fledgling lack of experience, so he is not optimistic.
After the start of the game, both sides were not familiar with the opponent's situation in the first game, and were in the stage of adaptation, Asal had a single point, and was always directly attacked by the opponent, Wu Huicheng took the lead with 11-7, and in the second game, Asal improved the quality of the board, and the multi-shot holding was obviously stronger, but Wu Huicheng's rhythm changed a lot, which made Asal feel awkward when he couldn't stand up, but fortunately, the key points were not soft, and he won 11-9.
In the third game, Wu Huicheng adopted a steady and steady strategy, basically there were no unnecessary mistakes, but Asal suddenly dropped the line, and the mentality was a little anxious, the first three boards have been very passive, Wu Huicheng led the way in an all-round way, and pulled back a game with 11-7, Wu Huicheng has a home advantage, Asal does not have so many fans to support, he can't even fix the off-court guidance, and often needs the help of other players.
In the fourth game, Asal was not to be outdone, and won the game 11-8, Wu Huicheng played very firmly, did not let the opponent affect his offensive rhythm, the young player is still very thoughtful, always trying new changes, ending the game with 11-5, and finally eliminated Asal 3-2, the next potential opponent is Zhang Ben Zhihe, as far as Wu Huicheng plays, he does not currently threaten the national table tennis, but it is worth noting.
The current strategy of the Japanese team is to reuse young players and give young players the opportunity to impact the national table tennis, such as the 16-year-old Matsushima Terukorn, who performed well some time ago, and now the South Korean team also thinks like this, 17-year-old Wu Huicheng plays frequently and has made some achievements, which shows that it really cannot be ignored.
