Recently, under the leadership of former world champion Liu Guozheng, the second team of national table tennis arrived in Tokyo and began to support Liu Guoliang and others in their Olympic preparations.
As the head coach of the men's first team, Liu Guozheng was still reused although he lost the list of the Chinese Olympic team. Considering that the current head coach of the men's team, Qin Zhijian, is also in the important position of secretary general of the Table Tennis Association, so in the near future, Liu Guozheng is fully likely to take over and become the new head coach of the men's team, which is worth looking forward to!
At this year's Olympic Games, the official delegation of national table tennis only had 3 coaches, namely the men's team coach Qin Zhijian, the women's team coach Li Falcon, and the women's first team coach ma Lin, while Liu Guozheng, the head coach of the men's first team who was equal to Ma Lin, was not on the list, which also made many people misunderstand that he was not reused by Liu Guoliang.
However, from all aspects of the report, the reduction of the number of delegations is mainly for the requirements of epidemic prevention, and the reason why Ma Lin is on the list should be because the two disciples in charge of him, Liu Shiwen and Chen Meng, are the main Olympic players, and they have won the mixed doubles world champion and Olympic champion, which Liu Guozheng does not have.
At the Tokyo Olympics, only Wang Chuqin, one of the athletes under Liu Guozheng's supervision, entered the Olympic delegation, but he participated as a P card substitute. Considering that the position of Ma Long, Fan Zhendong and Xu Xin is very strong, the possibility of Wang Chuqin coming on as a substitute is very small, so the role that Liu Guo is playing in the field of off-field guidance can certainly not be compared with Ma Lin.
But even so, Liu Guozheng still became the core of the national table tennis support team, following the Olympic delegation also led the team to fly to Tokyo, and then threw himself into the tense preparation.
As early as 2018, Liu Guozheng briefly represented the coach of the men's team and became a real and nameless head coach, an experience that Marlene could not compare. Moreover, Liu Guozheng retired from coaching in 2008 and worked in the second team for many years, and the young players in the current team can be said to be from his disciples, which has also laid a solid foundation for his future development.
Many years ago, Liu Guozheng was famous for turning the tide at the World Table Tennis Championships and defeating Kanazawa-so in 7 match points, and is an idol in the hearts of countless young players. I hope that he can further develop in the future, make the same great achievements in the coaching position, and take on more heavy responsibilities: come on! #夺冠2021 #
