On September 27, Beijing time, the second match day of the WTT China Grand Slam, in the second round of the men's singles competition in the qualifying stage, the national table tennis almost had another big player out of the game! Xu Xin's straight-board passer Xue Fei let the second chase three reverse India's Shah and advance to the third round of qualifying, with five sets of scores: 9-11, 12-14, 11-5, 11-7, 11-8.
Before this game, CCTV broadcast an interview with Wang Hao, the head coach of the national table tennis men's team, and he praised Lin Shidong and other young people, including Xue Fei: "In fact, after the Olympics, I think there are actually several young athletes who are not bad, including Xue Fei, Xue Fei won two championships in four consecutive feeder competitions." Wang Hao believes that the young people of the national table tennis men's team have matured their horizons after experiencing the sparring and other guarantee work for participating in the Olympics.
The embarrassing thing is that Wang Hao looked at Xue Fei's progress, but Xue Fei did not make people worry about the game, and in an interview after the game, he told the reason why he was almost knocked out. Xue Fei said that he had prepared for difficulties before the game and had played with the opponent once, and he still knew his technical and tactical routines very well, but he was still too careful and not flexible enough in the first two games to handle the ball, giving the opponent the opportunity to seize the opportunity, and the next three games adjusted his mentality: "Let yourself not be as anxious as before, take this mentality, this breath, slowly entangle with the opponent, and slowly play better and better." ”
Xue Fei was even so nervous in the first two games that he couldn't breathe, but fortunately, he was sure before the game, otherwise he would have to go out again. It can be seen that the reason why Xue Fei can't play is that the adjustment is too slow and not flexible enough, and it can't be compared with Lin Shidong at present.
And we must also pay attention to the rise of India table tennis, the women's team frequently has strange players, Sun Yingsha, Chen Meng, Wang Yidi have won the record, and now the men's team almost beat our straight board general, Liu Guoliang, Li Falcon and Wang Hao need to pay more attention to the India team!
