A sweaty table tennis battle is about to be staged! The semifinals of the men's team of China and South Korea are about to start, are you ready?
Back then, the national table tennis men's team was invincible in the Asian Championships, and winning the championship was as simple as eating and drinking. But this time it's different, the main forces Fan Zhendong and Ma Long didn't come to the competition, Wang Chuqin and Lin Shidong have to take the lead. It's a bit of a hanging!
Look at yesterday's women's team final, our girls lost 1-3 to Japan, which was the first time since 2005 that they lost the team championship at the Asian Championships. Tsk, that's not a good taste.
Wang Yidi took the lead and fought with Zhang Benmeihe inextricably, but unfortunately the key points in the first game were not resisted. Sun Yingsha took a lead and swept Misei Ito 3-0, but unfortunately Chen Xingtong lost to Miyu Hirano again. In the fourth set, Sun Yingsha led two games but was reversed by Zhang Benmeihe, and the game was suspended. It seems that our girls are really not in good shape.
To get back to business, at 1 p.m. today, our men's team will meet with the Korea team. Wang Chuqin has to cheer up this time. Since the Paris Olympics, this young man has not been in the right place, and hopefully he can adjust this time. Lin Shidong has been quite stable recently, and I hope to continue my good form.
To be honest, this time it's a bit of a hanging. The Korea team is not vegetarian, so we have to be careful. If you lose again, it's a bit of a stretch. But then again, the more pressure you have, the more explosive you can be. Maybe our boys can fight back?
By the way, friends who want to watch the live broadcast don't look for CCTV, they don't broadcast it. Go to Migu Video or a certain sound to search for "Asian Championships Live Broadcast", you should be able to find it.
In addition to the men's team semifinals, there will be two mixed doubles 1/8 finals at 5:30 p.m. today. Lin Gaoyuan/Wang Yidi against Hong Kong's Chan Ho Wah/Zhu Chengzhu, and Lin Shidong/Kuo Man against Malaysia's Chung Zi Yi/Keren. I hope our youngsters can start to win and make a difference for tomorrow's game.
Yesterday's defeat is behind us, and today we have to pick ourselves up. I hope that Wang Chuqin can find his form, and Lin Shidong will continue to play steadily and lead our men's team to the finals. Let's cheer them up and let the five-star red flag fly high in a foreign country!
Fans, get your little benches and snacks ready to witness the wonderful moments of the China-South Korea battle! Who says table tennis isn't as exciting as basketball football? After watching this game, keep your blood boiling! Come on, cheer for the Chinese team and let the opponent listen to our voice!
