The new competition system catalyzed a series of upsets on the first day of the Macau World Cup, and the schedule of national table tennis on the second day was relatively streamlined
On April 16, CCTV Sports Channel continued to broadcast the preview of the table tennis Macau World Cup: CCTV5+ channel (09:30-12:00) and CCTV5 channel (12:55-15:05; 18:35-20:50).
Since most of the national table tennis players have already finished the first round on the first day, the No. 16 national table tennis has only one game against the young player Kuo Man, and at 20 o'clock in the evening against the Australian veteran Hong Jianfang.
The fist is afraid of the young and strong, and the stick is afraid of the old man. Aunt Hong Jianfang is a straight board and long rubber play, how does Xiaohua Kuoman deal with it?
All the events on the 16th, as shown in the following two figures, will not be repeated in this article.
Looking back at the first day of competition on the 15th, the ITTF 2024 Men's and Women's World Cups kicked off with an upset and historic draw. In the foreign war, Lin Gaoyuan's draw was not too cold, and Wang Chuqin's draw was cold to the bone.
The players were all aggressively fighting for a place in Stage 2, with the athletes putting on incredible comebacks and a series of surprising upsets that surprised the fans.
Ahn Jae-hyun won two games in a row against world No. 1 top seed Wang Chuqin, and although initially trailing 0-2, he eventually drew 2-2 (9-11, 7-11, 11-9, 11-8). Despite a poor start, Wang Chuqin scored one more point than Ian (39-38) to put him at the top of the first group.
On the 17th, the big head will face Kirill Gerasimenko and will have to compete fiercely for enough innings and points to advance to the second stage.
Against China's Lin Gaoyuan, Croatia's Tomislav Pucar came back from 0-2 down to win two games in a row and draw 2-2 (10-12, 7-11, 13-11, 11-8).
Lin leads by just one point (42-41), which is more important than ever in the new game system, as every point will be counted and decide who will advance to the second stage.
In the next game of the group stage, Lin Gaoyuan will face Chinese Taiwanese veteran Zhuang Zhiyuan.
South Korea's Shin Yu-bin started his World Cup debut with a challenging start to the tournament, losing 11-0 to Singapore's Zeng Jian in the opening game. But Shin Yubin eventually turned the tide 3-1 (0-11, 11-7, 11-4, 11-9).
Despite the victory, Shin scored just two more points overall (33-31).
Thailand's Sutasini upset Mimato Ito 2-2 (12-14, 11-9, 11-3, 6-11) in the first Women's Singles draw of the tournament.
Sutasini had a three-point advantage over Ito (40-37), putting her in a good position to enter the second stage. She will face Amy Wang of the United States.
Miu Hirano poured two 11-0 in the first game against the opponent's little girl. Is it because Hirano doesn't talk about martial arts? Not necessarily.
The group stage is a new format of four games and is likely to be a 2-2 draw. Every game is important and can be crucial to qualifying.
