In the women's singles eight-in-four match of the Macau Championships, national table tennis player Chen Meng defeated Miyu Hirano 4-0. Miu Hirano's return is not of high quality, and it is difficult to pose a threat to Chen Meng. In this match, Miyu Hirano frequently eats serves, and it is difficult to create a threat to Chen Meng.
In the first game of the two sides, Miu Hirano made consecutive forehand attack errors, and Chen Meng directly expanded the score to 5-1. Chen Meng put a short forehand into the net, and served to attack the forehand and backhand to expand the score to 7-3. Miu Hirano chased the score to 5-9 through a forehand and backhand attack, and Chen Meng easily won the first game 11-5 with a forehand backhand.
Miu Hirano wanted to establish an advantage by holding the ball at first, but she didn't expect Chen Meng's defense to be better, which was the offensive rhythm that Chen Meng wanted the most. Miyu Hirano is really a little underestimated, although Chen Meng is a veteran, but Chen Meng's condition is better than that of young players, and the quality of singles is very high.
Miyu Hirano should still think of more ways to attack in the first three boards, hoping to consume Chen Meng by playing each other, which is a bit more than worth the loss. In the second game, Chen Meng made a service error, changed the line with his forehand, and Miyu Hirano quickly brought the ball in the middle with a forehand, and the two sides played from 3-3 to 6-6. Chen Meng pulled the ball back in the middle and directly expanded the score to 9-6.
Miyu Hirano hit a backhand in the middle, and the forehand serve rushed to chase the score to 8-10, and Chen Meng won the second game with a fast backhand and a forehand 11-8. In this game, Miyu Hirano still insisted on playing each other, but was limited by Chen Meng's continuous back-pull mid-lane balls. Chen Meng's forehand and backhand line change had a higher success rate, and Miyu Hirano was quickly thrown away from the score from the middle game stage.
In the third game, Miyu Hirano made a 4-2 start, Chen Meng received the serve and swung short to wipe the net, and the forehand attack tied the score. Miu Hirano received the serve and pulled back to the middle, and served a long backhand ball and a forehand short ball to extend the score to 8-4. She finally threw off the score through the first three boards of serve and extension, and Chen Meng was trying to chase the score, chasing the score to 8-9 through continuous forehand attacks.
Miyu Hirano called a timeout and was still chased by Chen Meng after the score, at the critical moment Miyu Hirano made a forehand serve and attack error, and Chen Meng won the third game 11-9 with a fast forehand backhand. This game became an important turning point, and Miu Hirano would be able to continue the suspense of the game if he won it.
Miu Hirano has been leading the score in this game, but the more she leads the score, the more nervous she becomes, and her weak ability to resist pressure is also an old problem. After calling a timeout, she should play the first three boards more and increase active fighting. She still chose to fight with Chen Meng, but the result can be imagined, instead of transferring Chen Meng's position, she lost her position.
This is what went wrong with the game strategy, Miyu Hirano began to eat serve frequently in the fourth game, and after the two sides tied 3-3, Chen Meng scored with consecutive forehand short balls and backhand long balls, 6-3 to throw off the score. Miu Hirano served to attack the forehand position, and chased the score to 6-7 through the change of the landing point of the backhand.
But at the critical moment, her serve was directly attacked by Chen Meng, and she ate a forehand short ball in the receiving round and was thrown off the score 6-9. Then Miu Hirano hit a forehand and pulled back to the middle of the net to lose the fourth game 6-11. Miyu Hirano was obviously not ready, she did not restrict her opponent in her own service round, but was frequently attacked by her opponent's serve, she continued to serve high balls, and Chen Meng would definitely seize the opportunity to attack.
Miyu Hirano was indeed tactically chaotic in this game, and she obviously had an advantage in the first three boards, but she just wanted to fight with Chen Meng. Last year, Chen Meng defeated Miyu Hirano, and the main scoring point was also holding the ball. Miyu Hirano didn't learn the lessons of the previous game, and the important reason was that she saw Wang Manyu and Chen Meng frequently fighting for the ball, and she thought she could do it too.
Miu Hirano still overestimated her own level, she thought that her overall strength had the possibility of competing with Chen Meng. It is inevitable to use your own shortcomings to touch the opponent's strengths and be swept away, coupled with the fragile mentality of Miu Hirano, the big score lead is also tied to the score.
In the last round against Tian Zhixi, it was found that Miu Hirano's ability to resist pressure was too weak, and this state not only failed to win the World Cup, but also estimated that he could not even reach the quarterfinals in the Olympic Games. Miu Hirano was lucky enough to get the singles quota for the Olympics this year, in fact, there is still a gap between her and Miyu Kihara and Miyu Nagasaki, but she was lucky to get the quota for the Olympics.
If it weren't for the fact that Miwa Zhang hadn't grown up yet, Miu Hirano wouldn't have been able to get a singles quota at this Paris Olympics. is still relatively happy for Chen Meng, after reaching the semifinals, she will face Sun Yingsha in the next round. Because Sun Yingsha's opponent is the veteran Zheng Yijing, this game is not too challenging for Sun Yingsha.
It should be said that Sun Yingsha has booked a place in the semifinals, and she hasn't seen Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng fight for a long time, and the two sides used to play each other in the finals. There were very few encounters in the semi-finals, and now Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha are in the same half due to rankings, and fans are also looking forward to this encounter.
With Miu Hirano defeated, it means that Sun Yingsha will have a hard time meeting Japanese table tennis players in the World Cup semi-finals. This time, Sun Yingsha mainly played against her national table tennis teammates, and the number of foreign battles was indeed too small. It can only be said that the strength of the competitors in the upper half of the region is generally not strong this time, which shows that Sun Yingsha's signing position is good, and the probability of reaching the final is higher.
