Can Ma Long defeat Wang Chuqin?
Which game is the most anticipated on Match Day 5? The showdown between Ma Long and Wang Chuqin has to be, for two reasons: First, Ma Long and Wang Chuqin are not only national table tennis teammates, but also members of Shandong Luneng Club . Only fans who don't mind the trouble will want to see the so-called "derby showdown". After all, no matter who wins or loses, a lot of topics can be created.
Secondly, although Ma Long has received far more honors than Wang Chuqin. The problem is that most of Malone's honors belong to the "past tense" and cannot objectively reflect the strength of both parties. Based on this, take the recent five matches between Ma Long and Wang Chuqin as an example: Ma Long has a record of 2 wins and 3 losses. The most recent match occurred in the 2021 WTT Championship, when Malone lost to Wang Chuqin 1-3.
It can be seen that, as far as the current situation is concerned, Ma Long does not have an advantage in the duel with Wang Chuqin, and is even slightly at a disadvantage. There are two reasons for this: first, Ma Long and Wang Chuqin often train and compete together, and both parties know almost everything about them; second, as they grow older, it will be difficult for Ma Long, who is already in his thirties, to grow up with the "post-2000" player Wang Chuqin. The struggle of time.
The last thing I want to ask is, who do you think will win in the match between Ma Long and Wang Chuqin? Welcome to interact and communicate below!
