Chapter 195: Revenge Succeeded
The top-notch tennis courts are equipped with perfect changing rooms with toilets and bathrooms.
Under normal circumstances, players who ask to go back to the locker room during the game basically need to go to the bathroom for convenience. This requirement is allowed during the game, and of course there will be dedicated staff to follow the players at all times.
Djokovic went to the bathroom as soon as he returned to the locker room.
The accompanying staff can only stay outside, and it is impossible to follow in.
Perhaps because of a trip to the locker room, Djokovic, who lost the first game, was much calmer, and in the next second game, Djokovic recovered his courage and embodied the strength of the world No. 1, in his first four service games, Djokovic made eleven aces, including one game that almost beat Li Cai a love-game, on average, Djokovic will have nearly four aces in each of his service games, which is definitely a very good statistic.
Of course, Li Cai is still always strong in his own service game, so both of them held serve strongly in the service game.
In the first eight innings, both sides fought to a 4:4 draw, which also made the audience enjoy watching it, and felt that this was worth the ticket price for them to enter the stadium to watch the game.
On the surface, the strength of the two sides is equal, but Djokovic knows that he can't always maintain such a strong offensive, eleven aces in four service games, which in addition to his own strength, there is also an element of luck in it, and he can't expect to have such good luck in every set, just like the first game, the state in the service game was not very good, and there were more mistakes, so Li Cai seized the opportunity and broke easily.
In the next Djokovic service game, Li Cai began to use combination skills, adding a highly concealed downspin cutting ball to the net-front technique, which often brought Djokovic to the court, and at the same time, Djokovic was also difficult to return to the high-quality ball at the landing point, and the result was that in the half, Li Cai directly intercepted the hand, and through this change, Li Cai got the break again.
"Oops"
After Djokovic saw Li Cai's break, he knew that it would not work like this, and if he could not break Li Cai's serve, he would lose the second game.
Although in Li Cai's serve, Djokovic played more actively, but Li Cai's serve was too sharp, and if he was not careful, it was an ace ball, even if he returned to the past, the quality was not high, and it was easy for Li Cai to score online.
In this way, Li Cai kept his serve, and won the second game with a score of 7:5, it seems that Li Cai is more difficult than the second game than the first game, of course, it is more exciting, compared to the first game of 6-2, on the surface, it seems that Li Cai does not have such a big advantage, the audience and the commentator think that Djokovic is back, and there is a chance to let the two chase three, and drag the game into the fifth game tiebreaker.
But in fact, Djokovic himself knows that he is not far from losing, and he has shown all his weapons and tried his best, but he is still not Li Cai's opponent, which means that in the next third set, he has a high chance of losing the game and losing the Wimbledon semifinals.
"The change in the rhythm of the serve is more rapid on the grass court, and it is more obvious, my movement speed is a little unable to keep up, all the forced return of the ball in the case of the pace is not fully in place, but greatly increases the probability of mistakes, Li Cai did not completely copy Sampras's play in front of the net, but changed, in addition to Li Cai's movement ability is better than Sampras, the attack is more ferocious, and he is only 16 years old this year, it is estimated that within ten years, no one can beat him on the grass!" Djokovic let out a long sigh, very unwilling.
"Is it possible that you can only take medicine?"
At the end of the first game, Djokovic was like taking medication, but reason still told himself that he couldn't do it, and it might not work, it was a technical suppression.
Dispelling this idea, Djokovic could only fight for every ball in the third game.
In the third game of the competition between the two sides, Li Cai still used the previous tactics, and although Djokovic tried hard, he still did not find a way to deal with it, and his performance was not as good as the second game.
In Djokovic's first service game, Li Cai once led 40-0, although Djokovic tried hard to save two break points, Li Cai still grabbed the third break point and successfully broke serve.
"Djokovic can't go back to the sky!" the narrator sighed.
Not only the commentator looks this way, but even many viewers who don't understand tennis seem to think that Djokovic was completely restrained by Li Cai in the game, and there was no way to find a comeback break point in Li Cai's service game.
But at this time, Djokovic chose to change his tactics, he reduced the use of backhand cutting balls, and instead began to use a lot of forehand strong attacks, forcing Li Cai to receive the ball on the baseline, this sudden change of tactics made Li Cai a little uncomfortable for a while, allowing Djokovic not only to keep his serve, but even to get a break point.
At this moment, many viewers felt that Djokovic was about to "come back to life" on the edge of the cliff.
But after all, Li Cai broke one game first, this is his advantage, even if the two sides protect the serve, Djokovic has no way to break, and he will lose this game because of this, and he will also lose this game, which forces Djokovic to attack, and needs to attack in Li Cai's service game, so that he can have a chance to equalize and win the third game.
Djokovic also chose this way, but in Li Cai's service game, Djokovic was already at a disadvantage, and launching a strong attack in the disadvantage was a thing with a high error rate in itself, not to mention that Li Cai's serve was so sharp.
And it was at this time that Lee used the most charged serve, two aces in a row, which directly made Djokovic's counterattack dream come to naught.
The final score of the third game between the two sides was 6:3, and Li Cai swept Djokovic and successfully advanced to the final of Wimbledon.
In the face of this scoreboard, Djokovic sighed in disappointment, his road to Wimbledon defense, the dream of achieving a new Wimbledon hegemony, was ended by Li Cai at this moment.
After Li Cai won against Djokovic in the semifinals, it also means that the only task left for the system is to win Wimbledon, and the revenge against Djokovic has been completed.
"Li Cai won again! We congratulate Li Cai on successfully entering the final! This match with Djokovic ended with Li Cai's complete victory, even Djokovic, but only caused a little trouble to Li Cai in the second game, in Wimbledon, Li Cai is really too strong, I just don't know who can stop Li Cai in the final?" said the commentator.
Because the match between Li Cai and Djokovic ended in three games, and the semifinals between Federer and Murray on the other side had just started the fourth game, and it seemed that it was going to be a fifth game tiebreaker.
After Djokovic's semi-final match, Li Cai went to Court 2 to watch the semi-final between Federer and Murray.
