Xu Xin hit four consecutive 3-0! The national table tennis men's team met strong opponents in the semi-final, and the Japanese table tennis women's team has reached the semi-finals.
Goz is a world-class player and lost to Malone in singles. So in this team competition, there was an interesting scene on the sidelines. Malone personally gave his younger brother Fan Zhendong a lesson and told him how to deal with Goz. Therefore, many fans hope that Malone will take the position of coach after retiring, and it will also bring more surprises to Guo Ping.
Although the men's table tennis team won 3-0 in the first two rounds, the overall level of the French team was significantly higher than that of the Egyptian team. The upcoming semi-final is even more difficult to play against the powerful South Korean team. Two Korean men's singles players did not perform well in the singles competition. Zhang Yuzhen lost to Hugo in 1/8, while Zheng Rongzhi lost to Fan Zhendong in 1/4 final. However, the impact of the Korean team is very strong, and the table tennis men's team cannot be taken lightly. Fan Zhendong is expected to play Zheng Rongzhi again.
To say that the hardest player in the first two rounds is undoubtedly veteran Xu Xin, who played two pairs and two singles and played four games 3-0 in a row. It seems that Xu Xin is not affected by the mixed doubles defeat, but is working hard for the gold medal in the team competition. His partner Liu withdrew from the competition early because of an elbow injury. It is commendable that Xu Xin can persist in the competition.
The women's table tennis team14 finals have not yet been played, and will face Singapore on August 3 13:30. Like the men's team, the women's team's opponents are not simple. Feng Tianwei and Yu, the two main players of Singapore, are experienced players, and Yu has reached the semi-finals of women's singles in Tokyo Olympic Games, and her strength cannot be underestimated. Although Feng Tianwei's strength is not as good as its peak, it can at least challenge Sun Yingsha and Manyu Wang with years of competition experience.
Therefore, the women's team met the strong enemy earlier than the men's team. Fortunately, Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha joined hands in the women's singles final, and the competition was fierce. Even if the Singapore team has the strength, it can only be defeated in the face of the Olympic champion and runner-up.
The Japanese women's team played even faster, sweeping China and Taipei 3-0, taking the lead in reaching the semi-finals. Like the previous training lineup, Japanese table tennis team sent Ishikawa Kasumi/Hirano Miwoo to participate in the doubles competition, and Miki Itô was mainly responsible for the singles. In addition to Hirano Miwoo's 3-/Kloc-0-0 victory over Chen Siyu, Ito Mikei directly defeated Zheng Yijing, a sister from China Taipei, 3-0. The advantage of doubles is also obvious, beating Chen Siyu/Zheng Xianzhi 3-0.
As the second seed in the team competition, the Japanese women's team was placed in the lower half and will not meet Guo Ping's team before the final. In view of Ito Mikei's strong singles ability, the Japanese women's team has a high probability of reaching the final, and China and Japan are expected to compete in the final.
