On the morning of July 28, the Table Tennis Competition of the Tokyo Olympic Games continued, and the two world champions of the Foreign Association, Ishikawa Yoshijun and Yu Mengyu, appeared again and began to duel, and as a result, Ishikawa Yoshijun was tragically reversed by the opponent 4-1 in the case of a 1-0 lead in the big score, and the final set was even broken by the opponent's 10-0 hanging, and the Chinese coach Qiu Jianxin, who guided her on the spot, was powerless.
Before that, Japan's Tomokazu Chang and Takashi Niwa had been eliminated, and now Ishikawa Yoshinori was out, so the only hope of winning the championship for the whole team fell on Ito Mimako! So can Ito hit his second Olympic gold medal again? The suspense is still there!
See below for details.
Ishikawa and Yu Mengyu are world champions, the former representing Japan in the 2017 World Table Tennis Championships to win the mixed doubles gold medal, and the latter being a member of the Singapore team's 2010 World Table Tennis Championships women's team championships.
However, in general, Ishikawa's level is still relatively higher, which can be regarded as an important opponent of national table tennis. The team gold medal of Yu Mengyu that year was basically rubbed, and the moisture was very large. However, the play of this competition in Yu Mengyu is very good, and the no. 4 seed player and world runner-up Zheng Yijing was eliminated during the round of 32, so ishikawa Yoshizumi is still facing challenges.
After the game began, Ishikawa Yoshinori appeared more proactive, receiving the ball and trying to twist it directly, so although he was behind at the beginning, he quickly won the first set with an 11-8 reversal. In the second set, Yu Mengyu strengthened his control of the first three boards, and Ishikawa Yoshinori made more mistakes, and then lost 5-11, and the state began to decline.
In the third set, Ishikawa Yoshijun once had the advantage, but in the end he did not grasp it, and even lost the set point, 12-14 and then lost a city, the situation was somewhat bad. Sure enough, in the fourth set, Ishikawa Yoshijun still did not find a way to counterattack, and then lost 6-11. In the fifth set, Ishikawa Yoshijun came up 0-10 behind, and finally lost the whole game 2-11, which was really miserable!
Today's game, Ishikawa Yoshizumi started the operation as fierce as a tiger, but the back is playing softer and softer, the handling of the key ball is very bad, to the back almost by the other side directly clean sheet away, completely out of state, which shows that the pressure of the Olympic Games is really big, a little attention may collapse across the board, there is no power to fight back!
At present, the only hope of the Japanese team to win the championship in the singles event is Ito Mimako, so will she keep the fire of the gold medal for the hosts? Let's wait and see! #夺冠2021 #
