On October 28, Beijing time, the WTT World Cup final is in full swing in Xinxiang, Henan. After the competition on the first match day, the players of the national table tennis team performed well overall. All five members of the women's team advanced to the second round. Among them, in the second round, Chen Meng and Chen Xingtong will stage a strong dialogue to compete for the tickets for the semi-finals; in the men's singles, Ma Long , Wang Chuqin and Fan Zhendong (bye) all advanced, only Lin Gaoyuan was eliminated in the first round and lost to German veteran Boer . You should know that the 41-year-old Boer could defeat Lin Gaoyuan in this game, which was beyond the expectations of many fans.
Because Boer has not had any special systematic competitions and training in the early stage, including the Chengdu World Table Tennis Championships, his overall condition looks not as good as Lin Gaoyuan. Lin Gaoyuan has not stopped preparing for a series of competitions and system in the past summer and the current stage. Normally, Lin Gaoyuan's competitive state should be better than Boer. In addition, Lin Gaoyuan is younger than Boer and has more physical fitness. In addition, in terms of technical ability, Lin Gaoyuan is also a world champion, so it may be easy to defeat Boer, but unexpectedly he lost 2-3 after five sets.
Lin Gaoyuan's habitual first round of international competitions has indeed triggered a considerable round of fans. Many fans even called on the national table tennis team and Liu Guoliang to not train Lin Gaoyuan when participating in international competitions in the future. The facts have proved that Lin Gaoyuan has indeed been underestimated for so many years. It is expected that he will give him some opportunities to exercise. It is better to give young players some opportunities, because if Lin Gaoyuan can play, he will play it long ago. After all, Lin Gaoyuan is not young. In addition to Ma Long, the national table tennis men's team is the oldest.
But why was Lin Gaoyuan defeated and eliminated this time when he was optimistic about the outside world? This also caused widespread heated discussion after the game. Some fans said that Lin Gaoyuan's psychological quality was not good, and some fans said that Lin Gaoyuan's overall ability could not play particularly high-level games, and he said everything. This also requires a professional to give Lin Gaoyuan a more reasonable positioning of the game. The former Chinese table tennis veteran , Hou Yingchao , who served as the commentator of this game, said a fair word and won the wide recognition of Chinese table tennis fans.
Hou Yingchao said: Lin Gaoyuan was not released enough in this game, and did not play his temperament and style. The key goal was too conservative. On the other hand, the psychological quality still needs to be tempered. Lin Gaoyuan made a direct mistake in serving when he was behind 9-10 in the second game. This situation has also occurred in the Macau Game, which shows that Lin Gaoyuan's heart is not strong enough and still needs to be tempered. In fact, this comment can also show that Lin Gaoyuan's loss is indeed a pity. He did not show his own state and style at all, so the score is stalemate, and in the stalemate, the key ball ability is poor and his heart is not strong enough, resulting in losing.
Normally, if Lin Gaoyuan can show his temperament and style at the beginning, he will win the game directly, and may even sweep his opponent directly, so there is no need to play any key ball with his opponent. Therefore, Lin Gaoyuan's main loss in this game was due to his state and mobilization, and he was not released at the beginning, and his ability was not displayed. It is indeed a pity to lose. Normally, sweeping Boer is no problem, and Boer's winning this time is indeed very lucky.
