The Macao World Cup knockout round signing has been announced, and 6 members of the national table tennis men's team participated in the group stage, and all of them successfully qualified. The knockout draw has been released, Fan Zhendong will encounter continuous civil wars, and Wang Chuqin will usher in the test of foreign wars. New king or veteran, who will win the championship?
[1/4 Zone] Wang Chuqin vs Hugo Calderano, Zhang Yuzhen vs Lin Yunru
Wang Chuqin was under great pressure in the knockout round this time, and he played Hugo, who has been in hot form recently, in the first round. The latter broke out in the Incheon race, defeated Fan Zhendong, and fought with Liang Jingkun to the end. Wang Chuqin can't take the enemy lightly, especially the opponent's backhand.
If Hugo is defeated, there will be a strong enemy of Lin Yunru behind. In the dialogue between the two post-zero generations, in the face of the strongest foreign opponent of national table tennis, Wang Chuqin is determined to win and cannot afford to lose.
【Zone 2/4】Hayasuke Togami vs Omar Assal, Felix Lebrun vs Malone
The strength of this area is relatively average, and there are no particularly difficult opponents, but the opponents all have good fighting ability, and they should not be taken lightly. F. Lebrun's threat should be the greatest, testing Malone's on-the-spot adjustments.
The Dragons have a good chance of reaching the semi-finals, but if they face Wang Chuqin in the semifinals, he will have little chance of winning. In the Paris cycle, the Dragons have been very passive and downwind in their play.
【3/4】Liang Jingkun vs Anton Carlberg, Marcos Freitas vs Tomokazu Zhangmoto
Liang Jingkun drew with Zhang Benzhihe again, and the opportunity to prove himself has come again, and I believe that Liang Jingkun can continue to suppress his opponent. Zhang Benzhihe passed the group stage in danger, and finally relied on a small score advantage to defeat Grote with difficulty. Every time he encounters national table tennis, Zhang Benzhihe always fights chicken blood and fights very fiercely. Liang Jingkun still needs to strengthen the quality of veneer and counter violence with violence.
Carlberg's speed is relatively fast, and his stability is almost good, and Liang Jingkun can't be impatient, and he can win the game if he plays steadily.
【4/4】Darko Joczyk vs Lin Gaoyuan, Lin Shidong vs Fan Zhendong
Fan Zhendong's pressure all comes from the civil war, and it is difficult for him to fight in the face of his teammates. In the Singapore competition, Fan Zhendong lost to Lin Shidong in an upset, which was questioned very loudly, and this time he was drawn again in the first round. Fan Zhendong has no way out, he can't lose again, he must play in a good state and play more flexibly.
There is Lin Gaoyuan in the back, and the two are more familiar, which is also a tough battle. In the semifinals, Fan Zhendong may face off against Liang Jingkun, and the sharp and fat duel may be staged. Liang Jingkun's recent growth is obvious to all, the runner-up in Singapore, the winner of the Incheon race, has a hot hand, a mature mentality, and can play tough battles. The two have similar styles, and the suspense will be greater at that time.
The Paris cycle, especially as the Olympics approach, we saw the outbreak of Wang Chuqin. Fan Zhendong is facing challenges, and his state is a little unstable. This World Cup is very crucial for Wang Chuqin and Fan Zhendong, whether the new king ascends the throne or the old man continues to rule, let's wait and see!
Who do you think will win the championship?
