176 Riyadh World Games-Mixed Team
◎For a moment, Zhu Qi couldn't tell whether he was lucky or unlucky.◎
The third mixed doubles match is crucial for the Chinese team.
If we lose, we will have no chance of winning the team gold or silver medal.
But it is actually quite important for the Hong Kong team.
Mori Yunan has a feeling that Huang Jiajia may not be able to beat A Shui.
A Shui's right-handed ball practice is getting better and better. Mori Yunan also watched A Shui's performance in several mixed team games. Before, he always thought that A Shui was a player mainly responsible for doubles, but his performance in several individual games was also very eye-catching.
In other words, if the Chinese team can win this mixed doubles match, then including the women's singles match, the Chinese team can bring the score back to [2:2].
Then the last men's singles match will determine who can successfully advance.
Fighting against the Kirin combination are Fat Tiger and Tang Tang.
They left the national team together and went to the Hong Kong team for trial training together.
In addition, the Hong Kong team had only one female player, Huang Jiajia, before. After Tang Tang and Fat Tiger got married, she originally worked as a teacher in a city school in Zhuhai and Hong Kong. Later, it was found that her martial arts skills had not decreased, so she was taken in by the coach of the Hong Kong team.
The Hong Kong team also promised both of them that they would focus on the game and not their personal lives.
It is also a great blessing for Tang Tang to be able to play in the Hong Kong team.
After all, I've been playing basketball since I was little, and I've dreamed of shining on the world stage. If the national team doesn't want me, it would be nice to be able to perform well in other teams.
After three years of training with the Hong Kong team, I have almost regained some of my previous form.
In order to be able to play on the court as soon as possible, Tang Tang and another female player from the Hong Kong team practiced the "double burst" technique and tactics together.
After three years of hard training, initial results are emerging.
Tang Tang didn't expect that he could beat Zhu Qi and Maomao. At the end of the second game, Tang Tang almost cried on the spot while holding his racket.
But Mori Yunan told Tang Tang that Zhu Qi was in poor condition, so she was able to win.
Tang Tang also felt that Zhu Qi's reaction was always a beat slow every time he received the ball. It seemed that Maomao couldn't even lift his right arm, and the ball he hit had no power.
During the break, Tang Tang heard some players passing by say that Zhu Qi seemed to have a fever.
That’s right.
If Zhu Qi hadn't been sick, she probably wouldn't have been able to win so easily.
When he was in the national team before, Tang Tang was just a marginal figure. Not to mention being an absolute main player, he was not even sure if he would get a place in the competition.
Although Tang Tang also represented the Hong Kong team in the women's singles this time and lost to Xi Lingen of the North Korean team, Tang Tang was already very satisfied with being able to play to this level.
Before the mixed doubles match began, Mori Yunan stood beside the Hong Kong team coach and gave the two contestants pre-match instructions: "They are both veteran mixed doubles players, and both have outstanding individual abilities. However, their usual pairing tactics are mainly based on the man cooperating with the woman, so you should pay attention to the woman's opening moves..."
Fat Tiger and Tang Tang nodded.
After the competition officially started, everyone discovered the problem with the Qilin group.
It seems that they are not as aggressive as when playing mixed doubles. Basically, they focus on defense when facing the smashes from Fat Tiger and Tang Tang.
Some domestic viewers who did not understand the whole story felt that there was something wrong when they saw this scene.
What's going on? We seemed to be playing well together in mixed doubles, but why do we keep making mistakes in mixed team matches?
[Is it because you've already won the singles gold medal that you think the mixed team gold medal is no longer important to you?]
I heard the head coach is sick and hospitalized. The current head coaches of the men's and women's teams have been coaching for years, but their skills remain the same. They can't even direct. I wonder what they do for a living.
If I lose this match, I will never watch table tennis matches again...
The score on the field doubled.
When Zhu Qi raised his hand to pull the ball, he felt that his entire hand had no strength, and the ball sank directly downwards when it was hit out.
It's online.
[First game, Zhu Qi/Song Linzhou 8:11 Liu Xinhu and Tang Ziyi]
"It's okay, we'll catch up in the next round." Song Linzhou reached out and patted Zhu Qi on the back, comforting him.
In fact, before the game started, seeing that Zhu Qi had a recurring fever, the Buddha suggested that a substitute should be brought on if the situation really didn't work.
But Zhu Qi directly rejected it.
How could she possibly come on as a substitute at this time?
Not to mention that Zhu Qi persisted until now, the team has also made it to the semi-finals.
If Zhu Qi gave up and let P card play, then the Chinese team's winning medal in the end would have nothing to do with Zhu Qi.
According to the rules, even if the P card is replaced during the finals, the winner will be the one with the P card who goes on stage to receive the award, and the person who was replaced will not get anything.
Furthermore, Zuo Zuo, who got the p-card, is left-handed and has never cooperated with Song Linzhou at all.
There is no way that Zozo can withstand the pressure of such a high-intensity game.
In public and in private.
Zhu Qidu had to grit his teeth and persevere to the end.
Knowing that Zhu Qi was not in good shape, Fat Tiger and Tang Tang obviously wanted to speed up the pace and win the game quickly.
The hot head itself can easily affect thinking, and many of the ball judgments are also wrong.
The Buddha gave her a bottle of iced mineral water, hoping to cool Zhu Qi down.
Only when the cold plastic bottle touched his head did Zhu Qi feel his mind become a little clearer.
In fact, Fat Tiger and Tang Tang's tactics are very advanced, but not so advanced that Zhu Qi finds it difficult to deal with. If it were under normal circumstances, Zhu Qi would not find it so difficult.
But the most difficult thing now is that some balls seem to be able to be put on the table, but they are always a little bit short.
That's why my hands are soft.
Zhu Qi never thought that he would experience such a situation, and he never expected that the time when he showed mercy happened to be the most important game for the entire Chinese team.
Now we can only ensure that we can get on stage.
Zhu Qi also hoped that he could sweat more, so that he could calm his mind faster.
"Play against their fast pace." Mori Yunan was standing on the opposite side, giving instructions to Fat Tiger and Tang Tang. He recalled that he had also noticed that Zhu Qi was not in good shape in the previous game.
It is impossible for a player like Zhu Qi to make a mistake like letting the ball go into the net.
The second game begins.
Zhu Qi touched the pool table, trying to wipe the sweat off his palms.
But when I lifted my feet to walk, I felt like my feet were floating on clouds.
That's what a fever is.
I feel dizzy, cold all over and sweating, my hands are weak and my head is heavy.
Zhu Qi took a deep breath, then another, and stomped his feet to try to regain consciousness.
Ah Shui was in tears watching from the backstage: "I've never seen Zhu Qi like this..."
Qin Xiaoba didn't say anything. He really wanted to go up on stage and help Zhu Qi fight... Right now, there was only one thing on his mind, and he said it out loud: "As long as my sister can win the mixed doubles, the championship will be ours. If I can't win the men's singles, I'll chop off my hand!"
The situation on the field improved at the beginning of the second game.
As for Zhu Qi, she had no idea what she was doing.
Because my mind was dizzy, I didn't have time to do any tactical thinking.
However, Zhu Qi's strong muscle memory allowed his body to react before his brain could think.
Swing! Hit! Push! Twist! Spin! ...
Zhu Qi didn't know what he was doing, he just let his body run and swing the bat as much as he wanted.
She couldn't hear any sound, and couldn't even see the ball. All she could hear in her ears was the sound of the ball hitting "dong! pa! da! dong!"
Then react to that sound!
Zhu Qi herself didn't know that many of her racket swings were a little deformed, but she could still guarantee the success rate of the ball!
She is not like a table tennis player, but a boxer in the ring.
She didn't have to think, she just swung! swung! swung!
The cats who were watching the game were watching from the back.
The cat doesn’t even need to catch it to know that the insurance on this ball is incredibly thick!
This is not something that can be achieved through pure talent, but rather through hard training day after day, year after year.
Every drop of sweat Zhu Qi shed in the past was not in vain!
The experience gained from every competition helps her reach the top of the podium!
——When her body can no longer support her, her strong will will lead her out of the siege.
/
By the time Zhu Qi regained consciousness, the second game was over.
[Second game, Zhu Qi/Song Linzhou 11:7 Liu Xinhu and Tang Ziyi]
"Beautiful!" Song Linzhou's voice came behind Zhu Qi's ears.
Fortunately, Zhu Qi's partner was Song Linzhou, who was able to cooperate completely with Zhu Qi's actions.
Even Zhu Qi, whose operation is a little distorted, can do it.
Song Linzhou knew Zhu Qi too well.
With every bit of her growth, every improvement in her technique, and every advancement in her condition, Song Linzhou was there to help her guard the stage from behind.
Just a look, a movement, or a subtle change from Zhu Qi.
Song Linzhou will receive the signal immediately and respond.
From Song Linzhou's perspective, what he always saw was the nationality and name behind Zhu Qi.
He walked over, took the racket from Zhu Qi's hand and placed it on the table.
Zhu Qi felt a little numb and could not hear any other sound. When Zhu Qi reacted, she had already been pulled in front of the Buddha by Song Linzhou.
"How is it? Are you okay?" The Buddha looked at Zhu Qi's condition, worried and encouraging him at the same time.
Zhu Qi nodded.
"If we play again later, pay more attention to the changes in the opponent's male players' hands."
Zhu Qi nodded.
"Actually, the most important thing for you right now is not to think about the ball, but to clear your mind."
Zhu Qi nodded.
"Would you like some more water?" The Buddha handed over a bottle of water.
Zhu Qi nodded again, but did not reach out his hand. Instead, he continued to wipe the sweat off his neck with the towel.
“…” Lord Buddha.
Zhu Qi nodded no matter what the Buddha said, but in fact he didn't hear a word he said.
She didn't have the energy to judge what the Buddha was saying.
The Hong Kong team on the other side also found the situation a bit tricky.
That is, Mori Yunan also couldn't understand the current tactics of the Kirin combination. It felt like they were "killing the master with random punches".
"Quick battle, quick decision." Sen Yunan finally said this to Fat Tiger and Tang Tang.
He had a hunch that if they couldn't win the next round, Fat Tiger and Tang Tang would definitely lose.
However, the result was just as Mori Yunan expected, and the third game was won by Zhu Qi and Song Linzhou again.
[Small score in the third game: Zhu Qi/Song Linzhou 13:11 Liu Xinhu and Tang Ziyi]
[Big score, Zhu Qi/Song Linzhou 2:1 Liu Xinhu and Tang Ziyi]
Xu Dong breathed a sigh of relief in the stands, clapping his hands until they turned red, and yelled, "Come on! Hold on!"
After running three full rounds, Zhu Qi was covered in sweat.
Maybe it was because he sweated so much that the disease in his body was brought out, but Zhu Qi felt that his head was not so dizzy and his eyes could see more clearly.
When I reached out to wipe the sweat off my forehead, it didn't feel that hot anymore.
Without taking his temperature, Zhu Qi knew that his fever might have subsided.
Many times, people are most sensitive to changes in their own bodies.
Zhu Qi's illness was caused by the high-intensity stress during this period. He was exhausted and his good and bad condition could be detected instantly.
For a moment, Zhu Qi couldn't tell whether he was lucky or unlucky.
If you are lucky, why would you let yourself get a fever before the game, and if you are unlucky, the fever will go away just halfway through the game.
But no matter what, Zhu Qi must take advantage of the time when his condition has recovered a little to win the game as soon as possible.
At the beginning of the fourth game, Zhu Qi took the initiative!
When you need to loop the ball, loop it; when you need to hit a forehand lob, do it without hesitation; when you need to let go for a long ball, hit the lowest long ball.
In order to ensure his scoring rate, Zhu Qi even used a squatting and chopping serve that he had not used for a long time.
Originally, Zhu Qi learned the squat-chop serve from Xi Ling'en, and he practiced it just for fun.
Because the squat chop style causes too much damage to the knees, even Xi Lingen rarely uses it now.
But in order to win the game as quickly as possible, Zhu Qi couldn't care less.
Seeing Fat Tiger and Tang Tang losing points one after another, Mori Yunan began to get anxious. He wanted to let Fat Tiger and Tang Tang continue to use the "double burst" tactics of women's doubles, but Song Linzhou never gave them the forehand ball, and the burst effect could not be achieved.
When Zhu Qi "woke up", Fat Tiger and Tang Tang were helpless against her.
But there are always opportunities. Fat Tiger spotted Zhu Qi's position and wanted to play a quick long ball to Zhu Qi so that he could hit a forehand forward shot, so that he could create an opportunity for a burst.
As a result, Zhu Qi refused to be fooled and began to move backwards, trying to hit the ball as it sank.
The idea is good and the response strategy is correct.
When Zhu Qi received the ball, the white ball vibrated on the rubber. She just turned her fingers slightly, and the white ball jumped again in an arc and flew towards the table opposite.
But Zhu Qi's body sank rapidly, his legs softened, and he felt unbalanced because he had no strength to support himself and move backwards.
She had fallen backward many times, and several times she had sprained her ankle.
But this time…
Someone helped her from behind, helping her find her balance steadily.
When the white ball hit the table opposite, it flew straight into the sky.
The last point is settled.
Zhu Qi closed his eyes tiredly, listening to the screams of the mountains and the sea.
She thought.
I'm really awesome.
