Zheng Yijing was really unlucky to get home this time, she was supposed to participate in the Saudi Arabian Grand Slam table tennis competition, but before the game was finished, she was "invited" by the hotel at night. It's also drunk to think about it, an athlete of a national team, if he doesn't play in a dream in the middle of the night, he has to stay in the lobby?
Speaking of Zheng Yijing, this female general is not ordinarily strong. Since childhood, holding a racket is as natural as eating with a spoon, and the family is also a good player at playing, which can be described as a family of ball arts. At the World Youth Championships before, her one-on-one serve and lightning-fast counterattack made many opponents sigh at the ball, and also made her successfully selected by the national team and became a new star in the team.
When I came to Saudi Arabia this time, I was full of hope and wanted to show my strength in the international arena again. Unexpectedly, the game had just begun, and she encountered this incident. It is said that the hotel management was chaotic, and the room was wrongly arranged to other guests, and as a result, Zheng Yijing had to spend the night in the lobby. In this situation, you say, can it not affect the state of the next day's game?
Netizens have stopped doing it now, and have spoken out on the Internet, hoping that Liu Guoliang can come forward to solve it. As the head coach of the national team, Liu Guoliang has always been known for his iron fist, and in the face of this situation, his appearance is undoubtedly expected. After all, athletes should have a stable rest environment when they compete outside, and this basic treatment must be guaranteed, right?
Liu Guoliang's challenge is not small, in addition to ensuring the morale and condition of the team, this time he also has to deal with this sudden "accommodation crisis". But with his past experience in leading the team, I believe that he can handle all this properly.
Back in the ring, despite the anxiety caused by the episode the night before, Zheng Yijing's performance on the second day was impressive. In the face of strong opponent Hina Hayata, she showed good skill and resilience, and although she was narrowly defeated in the end, her tenacious fighting spirit still won bursts of applause from the audience.
This incident is not just a small episode of an athlete being kicked out of a hotel, it reflects a disregard for the basic rights of athletes. Hopefully, this incident will be a turning point for all parties involved to pay more attention to the basic living conditions and competition conditions of athletes, after all, they are winning glory for their country, and every minute and every second deserves to be respected and cared for.
Overall, this incident, while disturbing, also gives us an opportunity to reflect on the importance of the daily treatment of athletes in sporting events, in addition to technique and strategy. I hope that in the future, whether it is Liu Guoliang or other managers, they can take this as a lesson and prevent similar things from happening again.
As for our Zheng Yijing, although this experience was bumpy, it also proved that she is not only a good player on the field, but also has an indomitable fighting spirit. She on the playing field and homeless in the lobby both showed the tenacity and bravery of athletes.
Although the late-night eviction incident was troubling for a while, it also brought widespread attention and thinking about the treatment of athletes. It is hoped that through such an event, the sports world can promote the improvement of the athletes' livelihood security, so that they can show their skills on the field more distractionally, after all, they are the pride of the country and the glory of the nation.
