On April 17, Beijing time, the table tennis Macao World Cup once again ushered in the focus of the showdown between China and India, and the national table tennis Olympic champion Wang Manyu appeared on the stage, competing with India's number one main force in the group stage, using the particle monster glue Batra, as a result, Wang Manyu won a big victory, swept the opponent 4-0, easily won 2 consecutive wins in the group stage, and successfully advanced to the top 16.
In this World Cup, Wang Manyu not only has to impact the championship, but also compete with Chen Meng for Olympic points and singles places, and the pressure is not small.
Highlights of the game
Batra is the number one main force of Indian women's table tennis, with a horizontal forehand backhand and backhand long rubber offensive play, and has eliminated Chen Xingtong in the 2022 Asian Cup, with a certain strength, but in recent years, she has not broken through the record of the main force of national table tennis, and her premature emergence has also made her prematurely studied, and it is generally believed that Wang Manyu has a relatively high probability of winning.
In the first round of the group stage, Wang Manyu defeated Romania's Diaconu 4-0, while Batra won 3-1, so Diaconu was out of the tournament ahead of schedule, and the next thing was Wang Manyu and Batra competing for the qualification to advance.
The process of the game
After the start of the game, Wang Manyu was no stranger to Batra's way of playing, and played very patiently, so he rarely gave the opponent any opportunity to attack, so that he didn't have much strength, but Batra's side made frequent mistakes and lost a lot, and soon fell behind the score, and finally Wang Manyu won the first game 11-6, and the head coach Ma Lin seemed very determined off the court.
In the second game, Wang Manyu took the lead at the beginning, and the Indian team had to call a timeout to adjust, because according to the rules, Batra would be eliminated if he lost two games, and now he has lost the first game, so he can only interrupt the game as soon as possible and study countermeasures.
After returning to the game, Wang Manyu still firmly grasped the initiative on the court, and finally won 11-4, thus advancing to the knockout round, but the game was not over, the two sides had to play four rounds, and the two looked very casual on the court, Wang Manyu won the reversal 11-9 in the third game, and won 11-4 in the fourth game, so the big score swept the opponent 4-0 and advanced to the top 16 of women's singles.
From the point of view of the ball road, Batra's anti-glue technique is more comprehensive than Akula's, but her long glue play has been studied more thoroughly by national table tennis, so it cannot have a surprising winning effect: when the strange glue is not strange enough, the defeat is naturally doomed.
